Today, Ol Jogi has answered to a different call as it is home to Kenya’s endangered species such as rhinos. The private wildlife conservancy is abounding with game and its serenity cuts it a niche in the tourism industry.

Besides the preservation of wildlife, the Wildenstein’s have ensured that all guests get the experience of a lifetime while in Ol Jogi. The manor house is a major catch for guests with deep pockets while the seven satellite cottage spurs your excitement further.

They are well furnished with beautiful décor topped by tantalizing meals as you relax in the warmth and comfort of the cottage which lets you reflect on the diversity of the conservancy’s wildlife.

There are day and night game drives within the vast conservancy as well as horse riding where you explore the vast ranch perched on the back of a horse. From a long horse ride and game drive, the evening steam bath winds down your body and helps you relax.

However, these facilities do not come cheap at all; it is for the exclusive elites with deep pockets and could cost you an estimated $300,000 in a week, with the minimum stay being three days.

Wildenstein says that at Ol Jogi Wildlife Conservancy, he has given an African experience that you could otherwise take 20 to 30 years to experience adding “There is no other place in Africa where you can have an entire 60,000-acre wildlife conservancy entirely to yourself. You will never see another tourist, never see another minivan.”
