The Camp
The Olumara Tented Camp - Masai Mara is spectacularly set along the Olare Orok River, in the Masai Mara Koiyaki Lemek conservation camp, which is a vast unexplored area.
The camp was specifically designed to blend with its natural surroundings, featuring the rugged, Masai Mara. This area is a photographer's haven and great for both day and night game drives. A rope suspension bridge across the river affords an adventurous entrance to our higher leveled camp, embraced by a bushy gorge.
Getting to Olumara Tented Camp
There are daily 45-minute flights from Nairobi or 2.5 hours flights Mombasa to Masai Mara. Road travel
takes about 5 hours from Nairobi but is not possible from Nairobi on same day.
Accommodation at Olumara Camp
Olumara Tented Camp has only 11 self-contained (ensuite) luxury tents, allowing exclusive services on one on one basis with all guests. Introduced as the first in the Masai Mara, the 'open kitchen' is remarkable. You get to watch experienced chefs preparing delicious meals, which will be served at the table by caring staff.
Enjoy a campfire while the bar attendant mixes your choice of cocktails and drinks, if preferred, at the bush-bar down at the riverbank.
