Rhinos on the edge of Nairobi, then the last northern white rhinos and a chimpanzee sanctuary at Ol Pejeta.
Start with Nairobi’s wild side: lions and rhino against the city skyline, baby elephants at the Sheldrick orphanage and giraffe at the Giraffe Centre. Then drive north to Ol Pejeta, home to East Africa’s largest black rhino population.
At Ol Pejeta you can meet Najin and Fatu, the last two northern white rhinos on earth, and visit the Sweetwaters chimpanzee sanctuary.
