ON THE SLOPES OF THE CHYULU HILLS
At Ol Donyo Lodge – set in 275,000 acres of scenic Africa – you’re free to choose whether you track your game from the back of a 4WD game vehicle, or the back of a horse.
You can set off on foot, following in the footsteps of the big five. Or, in the right season, you can stay put and let migrating elephant families come to you. The lodge has an open ‘log-jam’ hide set on the edge of the very watering hole where massive tuskers, wart hogs and giraffe come to drink.
A little further into the bush you can also be sure of photographing free-roaming cheetah, fringe-eared oryx, giraffe and gerenuk.

Planning my first solo trip felt like a big step, but The Ultimate Travel Company made it easy from the outset. I reached out over a year in advance, and Rob Kent quickly put together a thoughtful itinerary based on exactly what I was looking for, securing great flights and always being available to talk things through. Everything ran smoothly and I felt looked after every step of the way. The accommodation in Japan, Fiji and Tahiti was excellent and the experiences unforgettable.
