Located on the edge of the Great Rift Valley and spreading across the highlands north of Mount Kenya, the Laikipia Plateau is one of East Africa’s most progressive conservation regions. What was once cattle ranching territory has transformed into a pioneering network of private conservancies, where sustainable tourism coexists with wildlife and local communities.

Laikipia is home to some of Kenya’s most luxurious and exclusive safari experiences — offering a high chance of encountering black rhinos, wild dogs, Grevy’s zebras, and other rare species. It’s also a center for walking safaris, horseback riding, and community-focused travel.
