Laikipia Plateau Safari Guide

Laikipia Plateau is Kenya's conservation success story — a vast highland region north of Mount Kenya where a patchwork of private ranches, community conservancies, and group ranches has created one of Africa's most important wildlife areas outside the formal national park system. The plateau supports Kenya's largest elephant population (over 6,000), one of the country's most significant populations of endangered African wild dogs, and the world's largest population of Grevy's zebra.

The conservancy model pioneered in Laikipia has become a blueprint for community-based conservation across Africa. Visitors stay on working cattle ranches and community conservancies where the safari experience is deeply personal — guided bush walks, horseback rides, camel treks, and cultural exchanges that go far beyond the traditional game drive. This is where Kenya's safari future is being written.
