My Aug 2022 trip

Kenya between 12 Aug 2022 and 19 Aug 2022

Trip rating: Excellent
"This is our 3rd safari and feel that it was far superior to the previous two.

The Hemingways Ol Seki camp, Naboisho Conserivancy and our guide Amos made this trip almost impossible to beat for future travels."

Hemingways Ol Seki Mara

"cannot express how much we were impressed"

4 nights Arrived 15 Aug 2022
"We have been on 3 previous safaris and cannot express how much we were impressed with Hemingways Ol Seki Mara. Rooms were clean and spacious. The new lodge was impressive. And the service was fantastic.

We especially liked the fact that we ate at individual tables and were served the food instead of a buffet. We were still in close enough proximity to other guests that we were able to speak to others during our meals. Also, the staff was not stingy with serving wine and drinks at any time before or after the meals. That allowed us to relax and not feel rushed.

We have to especially note the organization and attention to detail that was provided by Debbie, the camp director. She was fantastic and did anything within reason to make our time there better.

Since the camp is located within the Maasai Mara National Reserve, there was never a large number of vehicles and sometimes we would go for hours without seeing anyone else. Made us feel like we were truly on safari by ourselves. I should also note that we were able to see more types and numbers of animals than we had seen on our other safaris.

We will definitely advise anyone that would listen to consider the Hemingways Ol Seki Mara."

Safari in Maasai Mara National Reserve

"Safari in Maasai Mara National Reserve review"

16 Aug 2022 • All-day excursion

As stated previously, due to the limits of how many and who is permitted into the Reserve. Some times we would go for hours without seeing any other vehicles. Made us feel like we were on a safari by ourselves and not with a hundred other vehicles.

The animal viewing was equal or superior to our previous safari in the Serengeti.
