About Olengoti Eco Safari Camp
Community-linked budget tents on the Sekenani approach — basic comforts, Maasai hosts and honest prices.
The area: Sekenani Gate area
The main entrance to the reserve on the tarmac side from Narok, with a long string of camps and lodges in the wooded valleys just outside the gate.
What it's like
The most accessible base by road — popular with self-drive visitors and group safaris. Mid-range and budget options dominate, with some smart boutique exceptions.
Getting there & fees
Roughly 2 hours from Narok on the (now largely paved) C12; Keekorok airstrip is just inside the gate.
Camps outside the gates pay reserve fees only on days you enter (US$100–200 per adult, 12-hour ticket, exit by 10am on your final day). Full details in our Masai Mara fee guide.
Plan around this stay
Seasons, wildlife and reserve fees are in the Masai Mara park guide. The year is broken down in the best time to visit the Masai Mara, and this price tier sits in context in what a Kenya safari costs in 2026. Gate hours and fee rules are spelled out in park rules and fees.
