Ol Seki Mara Camp Hotel was opened in July 2005 by Sue Allan and her son and daughter in law, Jan and Erin. Sue has run luxury mobile camp safaris for 35 years throughout Kenya and East Africa. The ultimate hostess, Sue's warmth and knowledge will make your stay one to remember.
Ol Seki Mara Camp Hotel is located on a wonderful rocky promontory, overlooking the Ilsupukioi River, north of the Maasai Mara Game Reserve. Ol Seki Mara Camp enjoys panoramic views in an area teeming with game but not tourists. This oasis of beautifully designed safari tents is nestled amongst Cordia and Acacia trees and the area attracts an abundance of wildlife and many species of birds.
Ol Seki is the newest camp in Masai Mara and it has made a huge splash! The location offers you the opportunity to enjoy both day and night safari game drives as well as guided walks in the Mara.

Ol Seki Mara Camp Community Projects
Olesere Primary School has 120 students enrolled with three teachers and one head teacher. It covers pre-unit through Year Three (about 4 to 12 years old). The school itself is very basic and our foremost goal is to improve the learning conditions as they are very spartan. Four years ago a free primary education scheme was started in Kenya. Ol Seki is working with the teachers, students and parents to make Olesere a great school
Koiyaki Guiding School
The neighboring Koiyaki Guiding School has the following goals.
To enhance conservation of the Maasai Mara wildlife by converting this region into an economically viable conservation area.
To equip local people with the professional skills needed for them to participate in, and promote conservation and wildlife management..
Ol Seki Mara Camp Hotel is proud to be one of the largest donors to the school by contributing $10 USD per bed night to the school. The Camp have had 5 Koiyaki Students help us in the camp during their school holidays to give them practical training. They sponsored one student last year. Our camping and conservancy fees and donations to the school have provided an income for the community, which has enabled further EU donor funding. On a practical side, we have a close working relationship with the school and have offered free bed nights to both donors and lecturers. We have also assisted with a succulent garden at the school.
