Ololo Safari Lodge & Farm

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.

I just completed a most memorable trip with members of my choir, starting and finishing our Kenyan adventures at Ololo. The Chapman family who run the Lodge and all of the drivers and Lodge staff were outstanding in their friendliness, responsiveness and service and we felt right at home very quickly. The rooms were clean and very comfortable and the natural surroundings were just amazing, with vervet monkeys and superb starlings about most of the day. The morning and evening game drives through the Nairobi National Park were always a treat and we see something different every time we head out. The guide drivers had excellent knowledge and kept everyone safe as an times. All the meals were beautifully delicious with most of the produce coming from their onsite farm (well worth a tour if you get a chance!) Very highly recommended

The staff and accommodations at Ololo are beyond 5 STARS!! The lodge is so welcoming and community focused, we really felt a part of the family by the time we left. The food was delicious and the rooms were cozy and comfortable. Our server, James, was top tier - but that was to be expected based on how amazing the whole staff was. Our safari guide, Steve, was a consummate professional and had AMAZING eyes. He got us sightings of all the animals we were hoping for and he is such a joy to be with on the game drives. 10/10 would recommend!

We had a fantastic time on our visit to Ololo Lodge at the beginning of December. The lodge is in a brilliant setting at the edge of Nairobi NP with great views out into the park.||Game drives in the park are excellent, with so many animal sightings. Our guide was really knowledgeable and brilliant at making sure we had the best experience.||The food at Ololo is absolutely amazing with the freshest ingredients. It was great to see a vegetarian dish available for each meal as someone who often prefers this option. They were also kind enough to make a cake for my husbands 60th birthday.||What really makes Ololo special though are all the people that work there. Everyone we met was friendly and helpful and what meant the most to us was how brilliant they were at going above and beyond to look after my 91 year old mother in law.

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.

I had a weekend at the end of a work trip and I booked two nights at Ololo. The grounds are stunning, the accommodations plush, the food impeccable. I had 4 game drives with guide Washington and he was incredibly knowledgeable and delighted to share information. My group and I enjoyed him tremendously. I was surprised and delighted to see such a large assortment of animals so close to the city -- hippos, rhinos, giraffes, zebras and even LIONS. It was a magical stay and I recommend it highly.

We arrived at Ololo Lodge at 9am and we were straight away invited to have breakfast. Many places I know would not treat you like a family member in this way, but Ololo does. Understated but to a very high standard.||I cook a lot at home, and the one thing I look forward to in restaurants is fresh preparation from scratch. Ololo’s food is wonderful in this regard, and not only the cooking, but the fact that many of the principal ingredients come from their own farm. ||The staff are charming, the big five obliging and we have so loved our stay for a few days at Ololo.
