It is an exclusive bush camp that flanks a secluded valley located in the Mara River area of the Serengeti. The private marquee tents are set in the shade of large walburgia trees that cover the site, a tranquil setting that borders one of the finest Game Reserves in the world.
8 luxury (including one family) marquees, each unique in their own way furnished with large double beds, flanked by bedside tables and writing desks, the adjoining "bush bathrooms" include a bucket shower, twin basins and a flush ceramic toilet. Hanging swathes of cotton and canvas walls provide complete privacy. The Mess deck and indoor fireplace leave guests with the impression of having found a home from home!

Ol Malo is a privately-owned game sanctuary on the banks of the Uaso Nyiro River in Kenya's wild and beautiful North Eastern Province - 5000 acres of spectacular bush country overlooked by Mount Kenya. Ol Malo is one of the few owner-managed properties in Kenya.
It offers the discerning guest a truly incomparable experience….one where you are able to get very close to the original pioneer days, where the settlers and the local tribes people (Samburu in this case) etched out a life which was to precede the Kenya we know today. Here, many of the old ways still exist!
In this majestic setting - on a rock escarpment on the edge of the Laikipia Plateau, bordering the tribal heartlands of the nomadic Samburu people – the Francombe family, and their Samburu neighbours, have created a home for themselves, and a dream destination for the privileged few who seek a glimpse into the true heart of Africa. They are pleased to be able to share their vision, their experience and their way of life with guests from around the world, either in the hospitality of the family home in the grounds of one of the most stunning properties and with one of the most impressive views in Africa.
Wildlife is prolific, and includes 4 of the Big 5 (Buffalo, Elephant, Leopard and Lion) as well as frequent sightings of Eland, Beisa Oryx (rare elsewhere), Gerenuk, Greater kudu, Water Buck, Giraffe, Zebras, and Various Antelope; there are more leopard in Laikipia than anywhere else on Earth, and there is a leopard hide on the property. Cheetah, Striped Hyena, and even Wild Dog are seen.The Leopard Hide is with bunk beds by the water hole, so you can stay out all night. There is also a Tree House, like the Nest, in Tarangire, Tanzania.
The day may start with a wakeup call with hot coffee or tea, and with freshly baked cookies being delivered to you on your ' veranda' to allow you to watch the sun rise over the wild and spectacular land in front of your cottage, with Mt. Kenya looming majestically in the background. If you are lucky you may spot the elusive leopard as he slinks off under the shade of a tree to nap through the day, or maybe a herd of elephant coming in to drink at the water pool below your cottage.
An early morning game drive to spot the first giraffe, eland, buffalo or maybe a skulking cat is followed by a late breakfast. Some people prefer to go on a nature walk in the cool of the morning, accompanied by guides and camels and later they will be surprised by a delicious breakfast served under the shade of an acacia tree, just at the right moment. Or a horse ride will take you into the midst of the game. As the tropical sun climbs higher in the sky, guests return from various activities to the lodge to relax by the infinity swimming pool.
A visit to the Samburu workshop, run by Julia, the Francombe’s daughter, is a popular and interesting activity. Colourful Samburu women sing while they use their beading skills to create wonderful objects to Julia's designs. Groups of chatting Samburu children paint delightful pictures of their world around them in bright colours. This 'Development through Art' workshop is designed to help the local people help themselves and puts money in the Ol Malo Trust to help with education and medical. Ol Malo is also justifiably proud of its excellent clinic and medical facilities.
Lunch is served at the pool and is a very informal affair. Followed by an afternoon by the pool, relaxing or a visit to the Ol Malo shop and very soon it is time for an evening activity. A visit to the local Samburu homestead 'Manyatta' is a wonderful experience. Totally unspoilt by western cultures, these friendly people welcome you into their home and share their lifestyle. Colourful warriors dancing with the exquisitely beautiful young girls present a scene of an unspoilt and ancient culture….and a super photo shoot.
Activities include:- Horse riding, camel riding, nature walks, running with the Samburu, night drives, picnic breakfasts, lunches by the river, river walks, swimming in the river, shooting the rapids in old tyres, sundowners on the rocks, barbeques in the bush, mountain bikes. Helicopter safaris are very popular. The use of a helicopter to get a bird’s eye view offers guests an experience of a life time. Helicopter excursions can go anywhere; a specialty is breakfast on the shores of Lake Turkana, and including flights over the Lake and along the Escarpment.
Ol Malo has reputedly the best horses in East Africa for horse safaris, and fly camping with either horses or camels, or both. And to return in the evening to hot showers and baths before cocktails in front of the fire followed by a candlelit dinner, regaling tales of the day’s activities or listening to Colin telling stories from the past is a wonderful way to end the day. And perhaps finally….spending a night in a leopard hide where four bunk beds are set up for you to relax whilst you wait and spot this most elusive of wild animals.
Most people arrive by charter to the Ol Malo airstrip. Ol Malo usually arranges these charters. You can also arrive by helicopter. For those who need to arrive by schedule service, Loisaba Airstrip is within an hour, on a rugged road....but you can game drive en route. The scheduled flight from Nairobi Wilson Airport takes about one and a half hours, although this can depend on whether there are stops en route. Ol Malo also has its own strip which can take aircraft up to the size of a Caravan, Pilatus and Kingair
Ol Malo comprises two products
Ol Malo Lodge, which comprises 4 bungalows which can be booked individually
And Ol Malo House which is normally booked exclusively by a family group, or a group of friends.
Ol Malo Lodge

- The public areas comprise a very large sitting room, lounge, bar and a dining room and a large infinity pool. There are 2 mini suites either side of the pool.
- Everything has been built using existing rocky formations as walls with local timbers used as the supplement.

- Each mini suite comprises a separate living area, where there is a mezzanine floor and the opportunity for an extra bed; a bedroom with a large double or 2 twin beds; fireplace, wooden decks, verandah and a mini garden with a lawn.

Smooth lawns and carefully tended shrubberies sweep down to a cliff edge, providing a vantage point for activity at the watering hole and salt lick below. A maze of slated pathways wind down to four rock and olive wood cottages.
Each double room has its own veranda and complete privacy. Large picture windows frame a wild, constantly changing landscape – clouds scud across the sky, stately eagles wheel and glide on thermals above the plains.

Ole-Sereni means ‘place of tranquillity’ in Maasai language. It offers its guests the comforts and services of a city hotel while bordering the wilds of the Nairobi National Park. Ole-Sereni Hotel captures the essence of Nairobi which is the only city in the world that boasts a natural game park within its precincts. This is evident as guests view animals at the waterhole in the park from the restaurants, bars, swimming pool, selected rooms and parts of the hotel.
For those who want the best of both worlds, Ole – Sereni is the perfect answer. As ‘the city hotel by the game park’, it offers guests a chance to view game only 15 minutes after leaving the airport.

Ole-Sereni has 48 Deluxe Rooms, which feature inviting warm colours and a modern, uncluttered feel.
