The Beginning
Oltau Luxe Adventures was founded in 2018 by a team of passionate African travel enthusiasts who recognized the need for authentic, luxury experiences that honor both the continent's incredible wildlife and its rich cultural heritage.
Our name "Oltau" comes from the Maasai word meaning "to guide" or "to lead," reflecting our mission to guide travelers through transformative journeys that create lasting memories while supporting local communities.
What started as a small boutique operation has grown into one of East Africa's most trusted luxury travel curators, known for our attention to detail, commitment to sustainability, and ability to craft truly bespoke experiences.
