KENYA RHINO & ELEPHANT CONSERVATION SAFARI TRIP ITINERARY

The itinerary outlines a 12-day 'Kenya Rhino & Elephant Conservation Safari' scheduled for May 24 to June 4, 2026. Led by WWF's Nikhil Advani, the trip visits Nairobi, Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Namunyak Conservancy, and the Maasai Mara to showcase rhino and elephant conservation. Key highlights include the Kifaru Rising anti-poaching project using thermal cameras and visits to the Reteti Elephant Sanctuary and the world's last two northern white rhinos.

• WWF and FLIR have established a project called Kifaru Rising to combat poaching and enhance ranger safety across 11 of Kenya's highest-priority wildlife reserves, which contain over 80% of the country's rhinos.
• The Reteti Elephant Sanctuary is the first enterprise of its kind globally to be owned by members of an Indigenous community, focusing on the rescue and release of abandoned and orphaned elephant calves.
• The Sheldrick Wildlife Trust is described as operating the most successful program globally for the rescue and rehabilitation of elephants.
• The Giraffe Center was established in 1983 by the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife to protect the Rothschild’s giraffe, a species found only in the grasslands of East Africa.
• The Olderkesi Conservancy in the Maasai Mara utilizes a conservancy model to protect migration corridors and create buffer zones, while providing economic benefits to local landowners through responsible tourism.
