Private ConcessionOlare Motorogi Conservancy
A private conservancy bordering the Masai Mara Reserve, famous for its high density of lions and hot air balloon safaris
For travellers dreaming of a more intimate safari, Olare Motorogi Conservancy offers one of the most exclusive experiences in the Masai Mara ecosystem. As a leading Masai Mara private conservancy, it combines low visitor numbers with vast, open wilderness, creating a safari that feels personal and unhurried. The area is renowned for its big cats. On dedicated big cat safaris, you can witness lions, cheetahs, and leopards in remarkable densities, alongside elephants, giraffes, and an abundance of plains game. The conservancy is also a key migration corridor, with herds of wildebeest and zebra moving through during the Great Migration. Classic game drives deliver thrilling encounters, while guided walking safaris bring you closer to the smaller details of the bush. Accommodation here is world-class. Choose from elegant safari lodges, intimate luxury camps in Olare Motorogi, or exclusive camps in the Masai Mara, where every stay blends comfort with the wild. Couples will love the seclusion of a honeymoon safari, while tailored activities make it equally rewarding for family safaris. As part of the broader network of Kenya conservancies and safari initiatives, Olare Motorogi strikes a balance between exceptional wildlife experiences and a strong focus on conservation and support for local communities. For those seeking the raw beauty of the Mara without the crowds, it remains one of Kenya’s most rewarding safari destinations.

Best time to go to Olare Motorogi Conservancy
The best time to visit Olare Motorogi Conservancy is from July to October, when the Great Migration sweeps through the Masai Mara, bringing dramatic predator action. This period is especially rewarding for big cat safaris, with lions, cheetahs, and leopards frequently seen hunting on the plains. The dry months from December to March also provide excellent wildlife viewing, with clear skies ideal for game drives and walking safaris. November and June bring the short rains, which refresh the landscapes and attract migratory birds, while April and May are characterised by the long rains, resulting in lush scenery but some accessibility challenges. For couples seeking a romantic honeymoon safari or families looking for an unforgettable adventure, the dry seasons remain the most reliable times to enjoy both wildlife and the exclusivity that makes Olare Motorogi so special.
