Ilkeliani provides a magical and intimate safari experience with just 12 spacious tents perfectly positioned on the banks of the Talek River, shaded by indigenous trees to offer incredible wildlife and landscape views. Guests have the choice between Premium or Deluxe Tents, all of which are thoughtfully designed sanctuaries that provide the key luxuries required to enhance a safari stay.
The accommodation options include three distinct types. The Premium Tents (4 rooms) and Deluxe Tents (6 rooms) are primarily designed for couples, offering maximum seclusion with a private entrance, a comfortable lounge area, an en-suite bathroom, and a large wooden deck—often overlooking the Talek River. Additionally, the Family Tents (available in Premium and Deluxe styles) are ideal for families with children over two, as they feature two interconnected bedrooms joined by a shared seating area, providing ample space and comfort. All stays at Ilkeliani are on an all-inclusive basis, and every tent is equipped with pure cotton linen, with Wi-Fi available in the main areas of the camp.
Nestled beside the entrance to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Neptune Ngorongoro is the gateway to a lush haven where wildebeests and zebras, along with their predators, begin their epic migration into the Serengeti-Maasai Mara ecosystem. A short, winding drive from the gate takes you to the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater—one of the most exhilarating drives on earth. From its peak, you can gaze down upon 100 pristine square miles of former lava lake, now a serene grassland and forest, home to over 25,000 large mammals. Descend a few thousand feet to the caldera’s floor and prepare for the spectacle of a lifetime.
Nestled high above the wildlife-rich plains on three of the Maasai Mara’s renowned rocky outcrops, called kopjes, Angama Mara offers stunning vistas and meticulously curated safari adventures. These kopjes, one of which was a filming location for scenes in “Out of Africa,” create a profound sense of return, evoking the feeling of coming home.
Angama Mara, accessible via its own airstrip, comprises two distinct luxury camps, each with only 15 tents that provide commanding views of the plains below. The Pavilion, centrally located between the camps, features an infinity pool, a gift shop, Wi-Fi, a library, a well-appointed fitness room, and a spacious deck. From this vantage point, guests can savor the Mara’s dramatic sunrises, sunsets, and ever-changing landscapes—all just a short 10-minute walk from any tent in either camp.
