About

Sprawling preserve home to lions, elephants & rare wild dogs, plus luxurious safari camps.

Fewer crowds than the Mara because they limit visitor numbers, which means you actually see lions and elephants without a ring of Land Cruisers. The land is owned by the local Maasai tribe, and guides like Nixon know every inch of it.

    I highly recommend staying at this conservancy. We stayed at Hemingway’s and saw the most amazing abundance of game. I don’t think we will ever top this experience.

    A wonderful safari experience at this Asilia camp. Great staff, good and accommodation. Kenya can't be explained, it needs to be experienced.

    We spent some quality time here. A great place to explore Safari wilderness and local African life. Heaps of camps available.

    Beautiful place, best experience of my life. I stayed at Ol Seki and my Maasai guide Nixon was incredible. I chose Naboisho over Maasai Mara because there is less people and the land is owned by the local tribe. Unforgettable.

    An absolutely amazing place! The conservancy only allows few visitors at a time and is not crowded like the Mara. Lots of animals and beautiful scenery. Gives you a real impression of animals in their right environment. Camps here are very eco-friendly and lots of research is being done. E.g. the Mara predator programme.
