Questions about Ol Seki Hemingways Mara
How does staying in Naboisho Conservancy differ from the reserve?
Naboisho borders the Maasai Mara Reserve and limits entry to guests actually staying inside the conservancy, which keeps vehicle numbers down and makes for a notably private safari. You can still head into the reserve itself when you want the classic Mara plains.
How large is the camp?
Nine tents only, each designed for privacy and space in muted vanilla and taupe tones, with 270-degree views over the Mara plains. The dining tent has a near-panoramic outlook over the acacia valley and works as the communal gathering point at the end of the day.
How flexible are the days here?
There is no typical day; the camp is small enough to tailor each one around you, and catering travels with you, so a proper meal on china with chilled drinks can appear wherever you are in the conservancy or the reserve. Full board and most drinks are included, with imported spirits, premium drinks and champagne excluded.
