Laikipia

The journey begins

Private jet to Laikipia

Laikipia is a broad highland region rather than one safari stop. Choose the conservancy and accommodation first, then match the onward airstrip or road transfer to that location.

Where to land for Laikipia

Jomo Kenyatta International is an international gateway for a Laikipia journey. Nanyuki is a smaller-aircraft entry point for parts of the region, while some properties use their own airstrips; the accommodation should confirm the exact final connection.

The operating carrier should confirm aircraft suitability, handling, permissions and the onward transfer for your itinerary.

What to do in Laikipia

Laikipia's conservancies offer distinct landscapes and wildlife experiences, so choose a property around your interests. A guided walk may complement vehicle-based viewing where permitted. Views towards Mount Kenya and the highland setting add a different atmosphere from Kenya's lower, hotter safari areas.

January–February and June–September are often useful drier periods. Altitude creates cool evenings, while rain patterns and activities vary between conservancies and individual properties.
