Highlights
Getting involved in the community...we have currently built a clinic and a school and also we have built boarding houses in several other schools in the area. We often have volunteer doctors coming out to assist in the clinic and they also bring with them heavily subsidised medicine for the community.
Need To Know
We are located on the top of the Oloololo Escarpment, overlooking the Masai Mara plains below. We have three levels of accommodation - our Secluded Chalets, our Safari Tents and our Bandas.
Safaris
Into the Wild & beyond...
Of course we love love love our wildlife and for this reason we haven’t fenced the property so that the plains game can wander freely through camp. We do walks from the top of the escarpment down to the plains, game drives on the plains of the Masai Mara, Sunrise breakfasts on the edge of the escarpment and so much more!
Wildlife
We have some utterly stunning bird life of the top of the ridge as well as zebras and giraffe’s that regularly stroll through camp. Looking down over the plains you will see various members of the big five as well as some smaller, but no less amazing, creatures.

Season
Open throughout the year. The green season - February - May is beautiful and lush and there aren’t as many cars in the park. June - September is when the migration arrives and it’s amazing to see the raw power of nature at work then Christmas time is when the families gather together.
