The camp provides affordable access to one of Kenya’s most conservation-significant landscapes, offering comfortable accommodation and guided activities in a region where the wildlife viewing is exceptional year-round. The Swahili word ‘maisha’ means ‘life’, and the camp’s name reflects the vitality and biodiversity of the Ol Pejeta ecosystem that surrounds it.
