Four unhurried nights at Hemingways Ol Seki, high on a ridge in the predator-rich Naboisho Conservancy — the Mara, the way it is meant to be travelled.
Four unhurried nights at Hemingways Ol Seki, high on a ridge in the predator-rich Naboisho Conservancy — the Mara, the way it is meant to be travelled.
This is a short safari with real depth. Rather than rushing between camps, you settle into one exceptional home for four full nights, letting the Naboisho Conservancy reveal itself slowly.
Hemingways Ol Seki sits high on a rocky ridge with sweeping views over the Koyaki plains. Naboisho is a private wildlife area bordering the Maasai Mara, with some of the highest predator densities in Africa and a fraction of the vehicles of the main reserve.
Days here are yours to shape. Morning and evening game drives, guided walks across the plains, a night drive the conservancy permits, and sundowners as the light goes gold. Between July and October, the wider Mara's crossings are within easy reach.
Why we love this journey — it proves that a short safari need not feel hurried. With a complimentary night at Hemingways Nairobi to ease your arrival or departure, fly-in transfers throughout, and four nights in one of the Mara's finest camps, it is the most graceful way to spend a few days in the wild.
Hemingways Ol Seki — A hilltop tented camp in the Naboisho Conservancy, with sweeping plains views and some of the Mara's richest predator country.
Four nights, one camp — Depth over distance. Time enough to know the resident lion prides and read the rhythm of the plains.
The big cats of Naboisho — Lion, leopard, and cheetah at close range, with off-road access and a night drive the private conservancy allows.
Walking and night safaris — Guided bush walks and after-dark drives, both impossible inside the main reserve.
A complimentary Nairobi night — A night at Hemingways Nairobi to ease your arrival or departure, with meet and assist throughout.
Fly-in throughout — Light-aircraft transfers between Nairobi and the Mara. No long road hauls, every moment savoured.
You are met and assisted on arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and transferred to Wilson Airport for your light-aircraft flight to the Naboisho Conservancy. A short game drive brings you to Hemingways Ol Seki in time for lunch, with an afternoon drive to settle into the rhythm of the plains. A complimentary night at Hemingways Nairobi is included for guests who prefer to arrive a day early or rest before a late departure.
Three unhurried days of morning and evening game drives, guided bush walks, and sundowners on the plains. The Naboisho Conservancy holds exceptional numbers of lion, leopard, and cheetah, and its private status allows off-road sightings and a night drive the main reserve does not. Crossings of the wider Mara are within reach between July and October, and an optional hot-air balloon safari at dawn can be arranged from camp.
A final morning drive and breakfast, then a light-aircraft flight back to Wilson Airport, where you are met and transferred for your onward connection. Guests on late flights may use the complimentary Hemingways Nairobi night before departing.
A hilltop tented camp in the Naboisho Conservancy, with sweeping plains views and some of the Mara's richest predator country.
A complimentary night at this elegant Karen landmark, all colonial calm, manicured gardens, and impeccable service to ease your arrival or departure.
