Exhilirating experience. Most gracious managers who made this solitary traveler feel in good company. A sunrise game drive and ample bush breakfast atop a hill was most special. Accommodations are immaculate and comfy and every meal is a treat. A most knowledgeable and pleasant guide whose enthusiasm is infectious. Lewa Downs serves up varied vistas and wildlife and you will... More

If you are interested in an amazing safari where you can see the Big Five, this is it! Two game drives a day where you off track to get really close to the wildlife. Great photo opportunities while enjoying a Tusker. The food, atmosphere, service and staff are second to none! AMAZING experience!!! More

Izzy and Murray are wonderful hosts and make you feel like you are their most favorite guest. We spent part of our honeymoon at Lewa and enjoyed every minute of it. The tent is large, airy, and comfortable. The laundry services are great, but because of local customs, you have to do your own underwear. There are many activities besides... More

The accommodations at Lewa Safari Camp are lovely, spacious and well appointed semi-permanent tents with a very comfortable king sized bed, more than adequate storage space, a huge dressing area, double sinks and a wonderful hot water shower. A huge bonus was the added shelf in the dressing area with an outlet for electronics. The shelf was large enough for... More

Issy, Murray (and Treacle) have made this camp into a real gem. They really could not do enough to look after us and incorporate our requests for various day trips. Whilst the guided safaris were excellent, our forest visit was something very out of the ordinary. Do ask for this day trip if you are staying here - guided walks... More

I spent 3 nights at Lewa and did not want to leave! Izzy and Murray were the best hosts I've ever been hosted by - they are both fabulous at what they do and super-friendly. The camp has a very homey feeling (we even said "home sweet some" upon returning from a game drive!). The camp itself is gorgeous, and... More

Lewa Safari Camp provided one of the best travel experiences possible. Izzy and Murray were the best , they made it seem as if we were part of their camp family. Lewa itself is beautiful with great animal viewing. Alex was our guide and he was fantastic, he made each outing special. The trip to the Maisi village was really... More

Lewa Safari Camp and the Lewa Conservancy were wonderful places for an incredible experience in Kenya. The Conservancy itself provides beautiful landscapes with wild animals aplenty. The Safari Camp was a lovely place to stay with managers and staff that made our stay very special. They made special arrangements for us to pursue our interests in education and health care....

Izzy and Murray were there to greet us upon arrival and after each game drive. They were great hosts and would highly recommend to friends and family. They meet every need and then some with genuine care and William, our guide and if your lucky he will be yours too. It became less about the Game drives and more about... More
