Ol Pejeta Conservancy has embraced virtual tourism to attract visitors globally in the wake of partial lockdown and renewed travel restrictions imposed by the US and the UK due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

The conservancy in Laikipia County bets on virtual classrooms to educate domestic and international tourists about the world’s remaining Northern White Rhinos — Najin and Fatu — which are aged 31 and 20 respectively. Each class will cost $100 (Sh10,700).
