Olare Mara Kempinski Camp
Olare Mara Kempinski Camp sets a new standard for ultra-luxury Masai Mara safari camps, occupying a privileged position within Kenya's private Olare Motorogi Conservancy. The camp's twelve exclusive tents command spectacular views over the savannah and the meandering Ntiakitiak River, offering the most exclusive wildlife viewing in the private conservancy without the constraints of national park regulations.
The architecture pays homage to traditional safari aesthetics while delivering contemporary luxury through sophisticated canvas and timber structures. Each tent serves as a private sanctuary where bespoke African safari experiences begin at dawn and continue into star-studded nights. This high-end tented accommodation in Kenya redefines luxury eco-tourism in East Africa through its intimate scale and commitment to conservation.
At Olare Mara, exclusivity means never sharing a wildlife sighting with crowds. The camp's location ensures privileged access to the Mara's spectacular wildlife, while its limited guest capacity allows for truly personalized service. From customized game drives to starlit dinners, each experience reflects the camp's dedication to sophisticated safari luxury.
