Cottar's 1920s Camp

Valuing conservation and community above all else, the Cottar's 1920s Camp provides purposeful experiences benefiting guests, biodiversity, and their local Maasai community.

Located in the private Olderkesi Conservancy, a wildlife rich conservancy leased from the Maasai community, on the border of the Maasai Mara National Reserve, this multi-award winning property undoubtably offers an unsurpassed authentic luxury safari in Kenya.

Cottar’s 1920s Camp is one of only 12 Global Ecosphere Retreats in the world. A charming camp, providing the ultimate authentic luxury tented safari, with modern amenities, yet is romantically styled in the bygone era of the twenties, where evenings are warmed under cream canvas tents with decor and original photography portraying the history of safari in Africa.

Managed by the fifth-generation Cottar family, with over 100 years in Africa, it embodies the perfect East African safari. Their team excels at everything they do, and provides the highest standard of professionally guided wildlife and wilderness adventures.
