SUGGESTED ACCOMMODATION

Cottar’s Safaris

Established in 1919, Cottar’s soon gathered a name for offering superlative safaris that took well-heeled adventurers into the wilds of East Africa on the track of big game.

TWO TRANSFORMATIVE PROPERTIES IN THE MAASAI MARA AREA

Today, the Cottar’s reputation for unforgettable safaris is undiminished. Vast numbers of wild animals still roam across the East African landscape; the Masai Mara and the Serengeti are home to the largest concentrations of terrestrial game on the planet, with migrations that number over 2½ million individual animals.

The hotel also offers a beautiful outdoor pool, 24-hour gym and rejuvenating spa where traditional Asian techniques are married with contemporary western practices. The restaurant, C’est La Vie, takes a home-style cooking approach with dishes inspired by both Vietnamese and French cuisine. Head to the tea lounge for a taste of the traditional tea culture of Vietnam.

“EVERY TRIP EXCELLENT – AND MORE TO COME”
I’ve been on several small group holidays with The Ultimate Travel Company and every one has been outstanding. My most recent trip in February was no exception – expertly organised, responsive to questions, and full of memorable experiences. The itineraries are well thought out, the hotels top-notch, and the group sizes just right. Their tour leaders are knowledgeable, supportive and great company. I haven’t looked elsewhere since discovering Ultimate – and I’m already planning my next.
