Governors' Mugie House 

There’s great wildlife viewing at the private Mugie Conservancy in northern Kenya.

Set on a private conservancy, Governors' Mugie has a myriad of activities for exploring Laikipia's vast open landscapes and endagered species. The property features a luxury main house where guests dine, as well as private stone cottages scattered around the ranch. You’ll often see herds of elephants drinking at the waterhole close to the main house and, if you’re lucky, you might watch leopard and cheetah on your game drive from the airstrip. There’s rarer wildlife to be found too, like the Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe and Jackson’s hartebeest. Wildlife viewing is private and with only four vehicles heading out on game drives each day, your wildlife viewing is quite private. You can track lions with rangers, canoe on the dam, head out with the bloodhounds and their handlers from the anti-poaching unit and learn about the excellent community cattle grazing programme. You can also head out on e-bikes, go on bush walks or head to the new hide to observe game.
