We received a very warm welcome when we arrived, the tents were spacious, secluded and very comfortable. Food served at every meal was lovely and there was always plenty. There was only us and another group but Massia dancing entertainment was still put on for us during one evening. Staff were very attentive and friendly, helping with anything we could... More

Spent 2 nights at the camp. Met with a very welcoming cold drink and towel after a long dusty drive. The tents were very large and luxurious; spacious, open, secluded and facing the Talek river! Food was fantastic, especially the leg of lamb! Staff very helpful, attentive and accommodating - especially Stephen & Cashu - the managers. Would definitely recommend... More

Stylish yet so warm in every sense. It encompasses the aesthetics of a picturesque African getaway. We stayed 3 nights in one of their 'camp-inspired' rooms. Once again the balance between rustic and modern is pitch-perfect. Upon having a chat with the chef we found out that meals are reflective of guests' taste buds. The chef is inspired by his... More

Late January 2013 we ventured from Nairobi to Olowuaru Keri Camp - about a 4.5 hour drive across some incredible roads. We did not know what to expect as we had stayed in some pretty run down place in towns in Western Kenya. This was by far the nicest "camping" or "glamping" we have ever encountered. The accommodations were way... More

My wife and I spent three nights at the camp last November. Choosing a place to stay in or around Maasai Mara is not an easy business but our Nairobi-based friends, who had picked this one for us, made an excellent choice. At first we were a bit surprised to be the only clients but it turned out to be... More

We stayed at the camp for three nights from 22nd - 24th Oct 2012 and had a great experience. The tents are large, clean and well maintained. Food was excellent - quality food and lots of vegetarian options. A very hospitable staff and we were taken care of really well.

Our stay at Olowuaru Keri was amazing! The accommodations were incredibly comfortable- hot water, a warm bed, and a clean room. The lodges are spread out so it feels very secluded and private.
