Olonana Camp
This elegant and exclusive safari lodge has an enviable position right on the Mara River, over which thousands of wildebeest cross during the annual migration. The Camps unique setting offers a world of remarkable opportunities for safari adventurers. In addition to big game viewing in the Masai Mara Reserve, visitors are offered a rare glimpse of the day-to-day lives of the Maasai people in the adjacent Maasai village or 'engang'. No other lodge in the Mara offers such a close cultural experience with the Maasai.
