The award-winning Cottar’s 1920s Camp is situated in the 7608-acre private Olderkesi Conservancy bordering the famous ‘seventh’ natural wonder of the world, the Maasai Mara in Kenya and the Tanzania Serengeti National Park.
There are an abundance of camps, lodges and villas in the Maasai Mara to choose from. Cottar’s Safaris have the following comparative advantages:
Cottar’s Safaris offers accommodation in luxury tents and in a private villa. Cottar’s 1920s Camp has eleven luxury cream-canvas tents in a 1920s style. There are five double tents, four family-sized tents, and two tents for honeymooners all with ensuite bathrooms. The entire camp is situated to ensure that tents are private and quiet whether for honeymooners or families with young children. The camp can accommodate a maximum of 30 guests.
For those seeking even greater exclusivity, the exclusive-use Cottar’s Bush Villa - voted Best Private Villa in Africa at the World Travel Awards - offers private, luxury accommodation for up to 10 guests in five en-suite bedrooms. The villa comes with its own staff, guiding team, private safari vehicle, chef and also boasts a 25-meter private swimming pool.
Guests will see an abundance of wildlife in the Maasai Mara, often referred to as the 7th Wonder of the Natural World. The Maasai Mara is home to the iconic ‘Big 5’ (lion, rhino, elephant, buffalo and leopard) and is famous for the Great Migration, the annual, awe-inspiring movement of over 1.5 million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles crossing from Tanzania’s Serengeti into Kenya’s Maasai Mara in search of fresh grazing. Common sightings include lions, elephants, leopards, cheetahs, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, hippos, crocodiles, with the occasional sightings of rhinos and wild dogs. This epic journey includes dramatic river crossings and intense predator encounters along the way making it one of the most spectacular wildlife events on Earth.
In 2025, Cottar’s Safaris was awarded the prestigious ‘Best Guides in Africa’ by the Safari Awards. Conde Nast Traveller wrote: “If you ask old Africa hands to name the best guides, Cottar appears at the top of every list.” Many of our guides are KPSGA Gold or Silver qualified, and have broad Big 5 game knowledge as well as sub guiding specialties. Our guides speak English, Spanish, Mandarin, Italian and a little French. All of our guides are included in the safari cost, except Calvin Cottar who can be contracted at an additional fee as stated in our rates.
