The Porini safari camps are traditional bush camps with spacious guest tents and mobile tented structures minimising environmental impact but still providing comfortable accommodation with solar powered electricity and eco-friendly amenities. Porini Rhino Camp is in a secluded valley, on the banks of a seasonal river and under the shade of acacia trees. This high-quality camp is located within Ol Pejeta Conservancy, a vast 90000-acre wildlife area between the Aberdares and the majestic Mount Kenya. The conservancy is home to a variety of animals including the “Big Five”. It is the largest sanctuary in East Africa for the endangered Black Rhino and is also a sanctuary for rescued chimpanzees.
