Olengoti Eco Safari Camp & Eco Cottages is based in the heart of the Masai Mara Reserve, one of the most unforgiving and wildest environment in the world, deep inside Kenya´s territory. Making a trip to Kenya has a mandatory stop in this privileged space in the middle of the Masai Mara where you can have breakfast in the company of our hippos family, enjoy a dinner surrounded by candles or dream around the camp fire. The perfect place to combine safari and rest. Read More
Rooms
The eleven tents are set under canvas and exquisitely decorated reflecting the old style of first safaris. To create this authentic atmosphere, the owners have integrated elements from Masai culture such as carpets, handmade furniture crafted by local artisans mixed with rich colours and sumptuous fabrics.The six spacious eco cottages have direct views of the Talek River in Masai Mara. The Olengoti Eco eco cottages, powered by solar energy, are formed by a large living area and bedroom, en-suite bathroom and outdoor terrace that allows you to enjoy the starry kenyan nights.

Luxury Tents
All tents are equipped with two comfortable queen beds covered by soft mohair blankets, duvet, & 100% percale & cotton sheets. Each tent has en-suite bathroom with shower and a private veranda decorated with two rawhide leather safari chairs.
All energy sources are provided by solar energy in line with our eco-tourism policy.
Cottages
This area, independent of the safari camp, is made up of six spacious eco cottages with direct views of the Talek River in Masai Mara. The Olengoti Eco eco cottages, powered by solar energy, are formed by a large living area and bedroom, en-suite bathroom and outdoor terrace that allows you to enjoy the starry kenyan nights.
In its interior, the warmth has been achieved thanks to the reddish tone of the adobe of the walls made with “tapial”. Inside the wood has a great weight in the design as it gives shape to the structure and floors of the cottages. Masks, figures and leather armchairs, unique pieces made by local craftsmen, coexist with cow hide rugs and palm baskets that take the traveller to a unique safari atmosphere.
Dining
Food plays a very important role in the camp. Meeting our customers tastes and expectations are a priority that should not be overlooked by being on a safari. Fine “Bush Dining” in a safari should be an unforgettable experience by our expert staff.The safari cuisine could already be considered a type of cooking with its own peculiarities, where the flavours of the local products, all organic, grown and nurtured by local farmers are thrown in wildly and magnificently for our guest pleasure as you shall be awed by its surprising simplicity.The chefs, experts in cooking under the harshest conditions without the mod cons are still able to prepare some spectacular and fully flavoured mouth-watering dishes.
