Olarro Lodge is hidden high in the hills. With individual luxury lodges clustered around a central lodge, the world outside rarely intrudes on the tranquillity here.Scattered amongst the flora, each room is a private paradise. Share savannah surroundings together at the main lodge. Cool off in the cascading waters of the swimming pool. Climb to the Upper Deck and quench your thirst for views and aperitifs. Dine beside a roaring fire. Retreat to the spa to deepen the peace this place induces.While wild Africa is never far away, lush hillsides and protective fences surround Olarro Lodge, keeping the safari experience carefully contained.

Every detail, from their positioning to the décor, has been thoughtfully considered. Step out onto your own private veranda. Pointing west, ready for dusk and the setting sun, each suite’s vantage point is as breathtaking as it is exclusive.

A WORLD AWAY FROM ANY OTHER
Let adventure unravel effortlessly-Experiences
ENJOY INTIMATE VIEWS ON A PRIVATE SAFARI
Meeting a lion’s gaze on his grassland patch is an encounter few forget. But to spend time in this animal king’s company almost entirely alone is an experience that defies expectations and description.
A RESERVE OF YOUR OWN
Watch the wildlife without interruption or intrusion from crowds of other people keen to catch a glimpse. Choose the privileged and private experience of an Olarro safari trip.
WILDLY PERSONAL
Such intimate encounters are only possible thanks to Olarro’s own conservancy. Accessed by our vehicles alone, the views of Kenya’s big game on our drives are always personal.
UNUSUAL LIVES ON NIGHT DRIVES
Nature’s great drama doesn’t stop when darkness falls. Unlike most game reserves, Olarro allows night drives, letting you witness little seen night-time spectacles on your safari adventure.
DARK LIVES
Catch white tailed mongoose prowling under the cover of darkness, or montane nightjar soaring through the night sky, as well as bush babies, Verreaux owls and African kangaroos –also known as the springhare.
VIVIDLY REVEALED
Head out into the savannah with specially trained guides for a night drive. Once dusk has fallen, they’ll reveal rarely observed lives of Kenya’s nocturnal residents.
QUAD BIKE ADVENTURES
Accelerate the exhilaration of safari with quad biking adventures on the plains.
KEEP UP WITH BIG GAME ON A QUAD BIKE
If witnessing wildebeest thunder across the Loita Plains is not enough to get the adrenaline coursing, we have other experiences sure to set hearts racing.
HIGH-OCTANE SAFARI
Speed cheetah-like through the bush along our conservancy’s private trails, spotting hyena, giraffe and more from the back of a quad bike.
DINE OUT IN THE BUSH
Reserve your seat at a feast that’s as fantastical as an Alice in Wonderland tea party. Book a table out on the wide-open expanse of the Loita Plains and savour an unreal meal.
UNBELIEVABLE COMPANY
Share a somewhat surreal breakfast with elephants, as they graze in the bush close to your table. Toast to a night of the finest dining with little but a canopy of stars for light.
MEALS TO SAVOUR
Supper’s setting is not all that’s spellbinding about bush dining. The food, too, is exceptional. The finest ingredients are expertly prepared to create unforgettable taste sensations. Pre-book your bush dining experience to ensure you don’t miss out on this once in a lifetime experience.
INDULGE IN PEACEFUL PURSUITS
Float thousands of feet above sea level, either in our retreats’ cool pools or in the blissful ambience of the Olarro Lodge spa. Let tension go. Surrender to relaxation in the hands of our talented therapists. Treatment list and prices available on request.
NATURAL AND LUXURIOUS TREATS
Once again, nature permeates Olarro’s world of refinement. But this time in the guise of botanical ingredients in our Thera Vine products – formulated to relax or revitalise mind and body.
FIND TIME TO UNWIND
Let scent soothe you, with an aromatherapy massage that pays homage to the fragrant trees surrounding Olarro. After long days on safari, ease any aching muscles with a gentle swim.
ARRANGE KENYAN PLAYTIMES
Anything-but-ordinary activities are what Olarro has to offer, especially for little ones. Our guides don’t just entertain. They inspire young minds.
PLAYFUL AND ENLIGHTENING
Our Kenyan playtimes are designed to open their eyes. Under the watchful supervision of our staff, they’ll gain a child’s eye view of savannah life.
AUTHENTIC ESCAPADES
Every day is a different adventure. From learning the art of Masai beading to crafting, children’s safari and shooting bows and arrows, their time will be filled with authentic experiences.
DELVE INTO THE MASAI MARA
Witness a striking scene in one of nature’s greatest migrations during your Masai Mara experience. Take a full day’s safari into the Masai Mara National Reserve to watch wildebeest brave torrents and teeth to cross the Mara River.
A FRESH PERSPECTIVE
Though there’s no shortage of animals to see within Olarro’s own conservancy, the Mara Game Reserve, with its proximity to the Mara River, promises particularly rare sightings.
ENDANGERED & MONUMENTAL SCENES
Catch the seasonal show of wildebeest leaping towards fresh grass. See giant pods of hippos bathe in the river’s water and some of Africa’s largest crocodiles basking on its shores. It’s even been possible to spot Black Rhino – an extremely endangered animal – on the 3-hour drive.
MEET THE MASAI PEOPLE
Leave the wildlife behind during your Masai Mara trip. Seek a different experience of life on Africa’s plains and immerse yourself in the lives of the Masai instead, with a trip to one of the Masai Mara villages or a local school.
A TASTE OF TRIBE LIFE
Learn about Masai traditions and witness their culture and lives first hand. Interact with the villagers as they show you around and give you an authentic taste of Kenyan village life.
SAVANNAH LESSONS
Share some of the school day in the company of the Masai’s children. Take a class with them. Play together in the schoolyard. Even help educate them with a donation of exercise books, pencils or other stationery – a gesture that’s greatly appreciated. These visits can be added to your package and arranged around your itinerary, however the best time to enjoy these cultural interactions is during the afternoon, continuing the experience with an evening game drive. Prices available on request.
HOT AIR BALLOON
Soar above the savannah and Talek River, soaking up breathtaking views of the staggering expanse of the Masai Mara.
