Ol Seki Hemingways Mara

Ol Seki Hemingways Mara

Ol Seki Hemingways Mara is a luxurious tented camp perched on a rocky promontory within the private Naboisho Conservancy, adjacent to Kenya’s Maasai Mara National Reserve. The camp offers panoramic views of the Koiyaki Plains and a secluded, crowd free safari experience. With only ten tents, including two expansive family villas, the camp provides an intimate setting for guests seeking both adventure and comfort.

The camp’s design combines classic safari aesthetics with modern amenities. Each tent is thoughtfully positioned to maximize privacy and views, featuring timber floors, canvas walls, and wide verandas that open to breathtaking vistas. The interiors pay tribute to classic safari style with leather armchairs, linen drapes, and handwoven rugs.

Guests can enjoy a range of activities, including game drives, guided walks, and cultural visits. The camp’s location within the conservancy allows for exclusive access to wildlife rich areas, ensuring memorable encounters with the region’s diverse fauna.

Best Time to Visit

Ol Seki Hemingways Mara is open year round, except for the second half of April and May when the camp closes for the long rains. Game viewing is excellent throughout the year, with the Great Migration typically passing through the area from mid July to mid October.

How to Get There

The most convenient way to reach Ol Seki Hemingways Mara is by air. Scheduled flights from Nairobi’s Wilson Airport to the Ol Seki Airstrip take approximately one hour, followed by a short 10 minute drive to the camp.
