Olkarien Eco Safari Camp
Where Raw Beauty Meets Purposeful Simplicity

An Immersive Wilderness Experience in Northern Serengeti

Tucked near the remote Olkarien Gorge in the far reaches of Northern Serengeti, Olkarien Eco Safari Camp offers a rare kind of luxury—one born from presence, peace, and connection to the land. Surrounded by dramatic cliffs, migration trails, and untamed plains, this off-grid sanctuary invites you to slow down, unplug, and rediscover nature’s rhythm.

Here, safari is not staged—it’s spontaneous. The earth is not viewed from a distance—it’s felt underfoot. Whether you’re watching vultures soar through the gorge, hearing wildebeest thunder by, or sharing quiet reflections around a fire, Olkarien Eco Safari Camp is where the wild speaks—and you finally have time to listen.

Eco-Conscious Comfort – Rooted in the Land, Designed for Harmony

At Olkarien, less is deeply more. Every tented suite is created to blend effortlessly with its environment, offering thoughtful simplicity without losing the comforts that matter most. Built sustainably and styled with intention, each space fosters deep rest and reconnection:

• Spacious canvas tents with cozy beds, locally woven linens, and handcrafted décor

• Private verandas with uninterrupted views of the gorge, plains, or night sky

• En-suite bathrooms with solar-heated showers and eco-sensitive fittings

• Low-impact systems including solar power and water conservation solutions

• Rustic elegance that allows the sights and sounds of nature to take center stage

Wake up to golden light spilling over cliffs, drift off to the rustle of the wind through acacia trees—this is luxury redefined by stillness.

Authentic Safari Experiences – Guided by Instinct, Shaped by the Wild

Olkarien Eco Safari Camp offers access to one of the Serengeti’s least-explored regions—ideal for adventurers seeking solitude, surprise, and true immersion. Every excursion is personal, every encounter unfiltered:

• Game drives along remote migration paths and predator-rich valleys

• Proximity to the dramatic Mara River crossings (seasonal, July–October)

• Guided walks through the Olkarien Gorge, rich with birdlife and Maasai lore

• Exceptional birdwatching and photographic opportunities, far from the crowds

• Community-led cultural experiences that deepen your understanding of place

With experienced local guides, flexible pacing, and a deep respect for the land, your safari becomes a soulful exploration rather than a checklist.

Wholesome Dining – Grounded in Flavor, Shared with Intention

Dining at Olkarien is as meaningful as any game drive—simple, fresh, and full of care. Meals are served communally or under open skies, connecting guests not just to food, but to each other and the landscape that provides it:

• Seasonal menus crafted from locally sourced ingredients and garden produce

• Breakfasts in the bush, scenic al fresco lunches, and candlelit dinners

• Hand-prepared vegetarian dishes, grilled meats, and regional Swahili flavors

• Herbal teas, cool sundowners, and thoughtfully selected wines

• Flexibility for dietary preferences and special requests

Here, food is about nourishment in every sense—sustaining the body and grounding the journey.

Untamed Setting – Remote, Reverent, Remarkable

Perched near one of the Serengeti’s geological and ecological treasures, Olkarien Eco Safari Camp offers a front-row seat to wildlife drama, birdlife spectacles, and ancient landscapes few ever see:

• Near Olkarien Gorge, a nesting ground for Rüppell’s vultures and a haven for rare species

• Excellent positioning for quiet migration viewing and predator activity

• Remote location away from commercial safari routes for true serenity

• Short transfer from Kogatende or Lobo Airstrips during migration season

• Strong partnerships with local communities and conservation efforts

This is the Serengeti at its most elemental—wild, wise, and waiting.
