Olea Africana Ride
As the famous quotes states..."I have a farm in Africa" at the foot of Mt. Kenya and to the east of the Aberdare ranges. Here is your home for the week at Sandai farm. This lodge will allow you to explore the vast countryside during your visit. The lodge has nice facilities and great hospitality. There are several riding horses with wonderful places to ride. Astride a horse is the perfect way to watch wildlife or to view the native life that surrounds you. Your stay includes Game Rides that will take you deep into the private game reserve just across the Amboni River. There are elephants, cape buffalo, zebras, giraffes, eland and seven other kinds of antelope.
Of course there are also many scenic rides through one of the most beautiful tropical valleys in Africa. And yes, there are lots of good hiking trails. At night you can spot wildlife from comfortable blinds where wildlife comes to feed or lick salt in well-lighted areas.
The real story is written in the colorful and varied lives of the tribes of people that populate this lovely country.
Most safari companies do a good job of exposing their clients to the scenery and wildlife of Kenya, but there is little if any contact with the native people that make up the culture of this nation. Our focus is to introduce you to the people of Kenya, that you may have a glimpse of the real East Africa.
Your week will include overnight camping rides to Olea Africana Camp - a beautiful spot perfectly situated on the trail route and overlooking the Laikipia Plains. It is a land left in a very natural way. If you prefer to sleep in your bed- we will take you back by car for the night.
Come and experience Africa's people and land on our Horseback Safaris. How deeply you become involved with the people is up to you, but we desire to give you every opportunity to view life through their eyes... if only for a little while.
