Nelson and the staff at Oldarpoi safari camp have found a way to make you feel like a family friend, while still treating you as an honored guest. I can't imagine a better safari experience at Maasai Mara. Of course, they were able to locate the many animals in the Reserve and get us literally within a few feet of... More

Thanks to Nelson, Francis and his brothers! It was a wonderful trip with wonderful people. The people in and around the camp are very helpful and guarantee a good time without the typical commercial taste. I wrote this article also because of the bad one star article. I did a lot of trips the last years and I know the... More

It's hard to capture this amazing experience with words. My husband and I left Oldarpoi a month ago and are still at a loss for how to describe it. It was exactly what we were looking for, actually even better, beyond what we could have imagined. Nelson and his staff went above and beyond for us. The boys who work... More

My boyfriend, Dan and i stayed in February 14th 2012 for 3 nights. I couldn't not wish for a better Valentine place. We arrived in the afternoon and we walked to visit the Masai village. The people were friendly. I really liked the fact that the funds from the camp as well as the one you pay to visit the... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here for two nights in March 2012 and had a lovely, lovely time! We wanted to go on a safari, but wanted to find an operator that was local and helped the local community. Nelson's camp fit the bill. Not only did we get to go on an amazing safari and stay in comfortable accommodations,... More

Despite the fact that I contacted the owner, Nelson, less than two days before my scheduled arrival to let him know that I wouldn't be able to make it, he immediately suggested that he would like to refund my payment. This, despite... More

We stayed 5 nights at the Oldarpoi Camp. It was an absolutely amazing experience! Even the basic accommodations felt like luxury with excellent traditional food, amazing, caring and dedicated staff who were attentive to anything we needed, and most importantly, the owner, Nelson, as our guide who truly knew exactly where and when to go to see every big game...

We are a couple from Sweden and we stayed in Oldarpoi Camp for 8 nights in Jan 2012. We were welcomed with such friendliness that we have never experienced elsewhere before. The staff took the effort to learn our names and the service felt very personalised. They are genuinely nice people and we felt very sad when it was time... More

We are a Swedish family with two children 7 and 10 years of age. We spent four nights and five days at Oldarpoi and loved it! Nature and wildlife in the Masai Mara is fantastic and Oldarpoi provides guides with great knowledge and great commitment giving the visitors a complete experience. We were completely overwhelmed by the animal scenes that... More
