Embrace a memorable safari experience on the equator at 2000m high in the shadow of Mt.Kenya at the 90,000acre Ol.Pejeta Conservancy. Staying at Pelican House will avail visitors to the conservancy's many attributes. Pelican House is exclusively designed to suppot Ol Pejeta,s Community Development Programmes. Thus while a visit to a world of class conservation entity is an experience in itself - to which Pelican House is of notable regard - every KSh spent at the house goes to assist our community neighbours.
