"Outstanding place and the kindest staff. It was our last stop in Kenya and the experience was impressive, from the food to the guide, everything was great. The tent was always perfect, their morning call coffee and tea is amazing, food is delicious and staff always keep an eye on your needs. Also Joseph the guide was great."

“I recently had the pleasure of staying at River Camp, the newest luxury addition to Ol Pejeta. It was an incredible experience that perfectly combined modern luxury with exceptional dining. The farm-to-table concept, set against the backdrop of the rustic rivers and the magnificent Mount Kenya, was truly memorable. Sylvester (Lavone) and his team paid attention to every detail, ensuring that our stay was nothing short of amazing. The master chefs, Giddeon and Steve, skillfully crafted some of the best culinary experiences we've ever had. Even our kids had the opportunity to cook alongside the team. Moreover, the security team made sure we felt safe at all times in the wilderness. With just 8 tents and a maximum capacity of 20 guests, River Camp has become our top choice for the ultimate vacation experience. A special thanks to Theayea, Lajore, and Rauto for their exceptional service.”
