After a glimpse into Kenya's capital, set off for Ol Pejeta, about 210km north of Nairobi. The over-310-square-kilometer conservancy, founded in 1988 to ensure the survival and the population increase of the black rhinos, is also famed as the only destination in Kenya to see chimpanzees.
Arrive after about a four-hour drive, have a leisurely afternoon, or join a game safari as you wish.
