Situated in a private concession on the Masai Mara – and bordering the Serengeti and Loliondo reserves – Cottar’s 1920s Camp is a traditional tented safari camp reminiscent of scenes from Out of Africa or the pages of Hemingway’s safari diary. In authentic historic style, the camp is furnished with decorative pieces – ostrich eggs, typewriters, dusty photo albums, and steel and brass antiques – which transport you back in time to a golden era when safaris were characterized by uninhibited adventure and romance. While your convivial hosts at Cottars intend to take you back to an age long past, there is nothing antiquated about its personalized and intuitive service. A butler is always at your service, making you feel comfortably at home and wanting for nothing.
Under the shade of a cluster of acacia trees with expansive views across the Mara plains, this classic camp accommodates 28 guests in authentic white canvas en suite tents. Professionally guided 4x4 game drives and walking safaris with expert guides are Cottar’s hallmark and the camp’s position within proximity of the Serengeti means that you are ideally placed to witness the spectacular wildebeest Migration between May and October. Year-round game viewing on this Big 5 reserve is consistent with high concentrations of predators such as lions, leopards, and cheetahs inhabiting the reserve.
Cottar’s focus on impact experiences also offers purpose-driven safari adventures. Learn from the all-female conservation unit, discover unique medicinal plants, forage for wild food, or participate in reforestation and seed-dispersing bush walks, fully engaging in active and sustainable, community-based travel.
Cottar’s private concession guarantees the discerning safari enthusiast the utmost privacy. Off-road game driving, night drives, and walking safaris further set Cottar’s apart and ensure a phenomenal Kenyan wilderness experience for guests.

Aside from twice-daily 4x4 game drives and walking safaris (on request) guided fishing trips are offered on the Mara River and the chef will happily prepare your catch for dinner. Guests can enjoy an enriching cultural experience on a visit to a nearby Maasai village.
An armed Maasai warrior guards the camp each night and is always present to escort guests around the camp, a service that is compulsory after dark. Wi-Fi is available in communal areas of the camp.
