"An adjacent conservancy that, together with its neighbor, forms a critically important landscape for rhino conservation in Kenya: combined populations between the two reserves now total more than 123 southern white rhinos and roughly 141 black rhinos, representing over 13% of the country’s rhino population, and underpin large‑scale anti‑poaching and habitat‑management efforts across the landscape." - Flora Stubbs Flora Stubbs Flora Stubbs is the executive editor of Travel + Leisure.

"Quad Biking in Lewa Lewa conservancy in the north of Kenya offers quad biking safaris along their game trails, although for an extra-special experience you can be helicoptered to an even more remote and stunning start point. A day can be booked when you stay at Sirikoi camp, and includes breakfast and refreshments. When the heat gets too much bikers stop off at one of the nearby pools, which are naturally filled with icy water fresh from the slopes of Mt Kenya."


Tony and Kamau visited this conservancy to view the animals. They saw a giraffe, termite mounds, zebras, an ostrich, an elephant, a rhino, and some lions. They then had a breakfast of scrambled eggs and toast with Mike Watson, CEO of the conservancy; Faith Riunga, education officer of the conservancy; Wanjiku Kinuthia, communications officer of the conservancy; Tom Lalampaa, CEO of Northern Rangelands Trust.
"Lewa Wilderness was the first camp in the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy to add an electric vehicle to its fleet, offering visitors all-electric safaris. The camp is following the trend towards sustainability and eco-friendly tourism." - Travel + Leisure Editors
