    Wow just wow, gorgeous place with every little detail beautifully curated by Joanna and team. Safari and trip to Maasai Mara and Lamu was incredible thanks to Charley, George and the amazing guides, Steve, George, Ernest and Soy. I can't believe how many animals we saw every game drive and the amazing singing opportunities. Just want to go back.

    We absolutely loved our stay at Ololo Lodge. While the morning and afternoon game drives are great, it’s the Lodge that makes it truly special. Rooms are very comfortable and stylish (loved the interior design of the whole place), the food is delicious and comes from the attached organic farm (ask for a farm tour), and the staff are just lovely. Ololo Safaris organised our whole trip to the Masai Mara and Lamu and all travel, activities and accommodation along the way was fantastic. Highly recommend talking to Ololo to arrange your African adventure.

    My wife and I stayed at Ololo Safari Lodge for our honeymoon, and it was absolutely incredible. The cottages were beautiful, cozy, and perfect for a couple. Our server, Gems, was amazing — he always made sure we had everything we needed at all times of the day. The food was outstanding and so fresh, with everything grown right on their own farm. All the staff were wonderful, and even the owner took the time to talk with us — such a genuine guy (and his dog Fred was a favorite around the lodge!). We also had a personal driver, Soi, who was fantastic — friendly, helpful, and made sure we were always safe and taken care of. The lodge itself is stunning, surrounded by wildlife. We had monkeys hanging out on our porch and could enjoy breakfast while watching animals walk by. Truly one of the best places we’ve ever stayed — Ololo Safari Lodge is a must-visit!

    The best possible honeymoon we could’ve wished for. Our only regret was that we didn’t get to meet Jim. Ololo is perfect in every way. It has a lovely family feel to it, all the staff are extremely kind and helpful and the food was very very good. Special thank you to our guide Washington his knowledge was incredible!! We were very grateful for our gifts in the room too, everyone knew we were on honeymoon and all congratulated us, it was all so personal! Also very happy I got to meet the superstar that is Fred (the golden retriever)

    A peaceful, unique stay on the edge of the park We spent one night at Ololo Farm and Lodge and absolutely loved the experience. It’s right on the edge of Nairobi National Park, so you get that safari feel, but with the comforts of a cozy, well-run lodge. We stayed in the Terrace Room and did the Game Package, which included meals, a game drive, and a tour of their regenerative farm. The farm visit was honestly one of the highlights—super informative and hands-on. We even got to collect fresh eggs from under the chickens and ducks! They also have a black soldier fly project that’s been recognised by the UN, which was really impressive. Ololo is run by Craig and Joanne, who moved from Australia and built something really special here. Craig’s background in regenerative farming clearly influences everything—from the way the food is grown to how the place is run. Speaking of food, everything was fresh and full of flavour. We had tilapia tacos with slaw and lime crema, made from fish raised right there on the farm, and a really good mushroom soup made with mushrooms grown onsite. There’s a kids' menu too if you're travelling with little ones. The lodge itself is calm and beautifully done, with great views and a really nice pool area. It’s close to JKIA, so you do hear some planes, but the sounds of wildlife were much more noticeable (and enjoyable!). Definitely recommend if you're looking for a peaceful, sustainable, and unique place to stay near Nairobi or a staycation.
