Is the Elewana Kifaru House for Me?

A visit to Elewana Kifaru House is a plunge into the timeless tranquility of Africa. Located within the world-famous Lewa Conservancy, home to East Africa’s healthiest black and white rhino populations, this property appropriately takes its name from the Swahili word for rhino.

Five charming thatched cottages are spread over the lawns overlooking the vast Lewa Plains. The elegant dining and sitting room lead out on to a spacious terrace where meals are enjoyed Al fresco while watching wildlife at the waterhole below.

A tranquil retreat, Kifaru House provides an exclusive safari experience and opportunity to discover this world renowned wildlife conservancy.

More about Elewana Kifaru House Lewa

Horse & Camel Riding

And for those who like to expend less energy and enjoy a loftier view getting closer to the game, horseback or camel walks are also available.

Elewana Kifaru House offers evening horse rides where guests can get up close to the plains game as they graze, indifferent and untroubled by the presence of other four-legged creatures. Although Kifaru horses are well-schooled and completely at home in the bush, riding is for experienced riders only and subject to availability. There is an additional charge and riders will be requested to fill out a questionnaire to ascertain their competency.

Elewana Kifaru House also offers evening camel rides for those without riding skills. Led by experienced Samburu handlers, camel riders can enjoy a scenic walk through the wilderness and experience the gentle, rolling pace of the traditional Samburu transport.

Camel riding is subject to availability and there is an additional charge.

Bush Breakfast

Few places have such dramatic sunrises as Africa. From Kifaru House guests can watch the splendid dawn break and enjoy a hearty breakfast al fresco, in the middle of the plains, surrounded by wildlife. Feel part of the wilderness with the spectacular views, the scents, the colours, and the pageant of wildlife all around.

“Sundowners” are a safari tradition – after a day in the wilderness stop and watch the huge red equatorial sun sink below the horizon and savour the moments with a gin and tonic or glass of champagne.
