Location & Description
Mara River Camp is nestled at the foot
of the Oloololo Escarpment and on the north
west boundary of Kenya's famous Maasai Mara
National Reserve, on a beautiful forested
bend of the majestic Mara River, is one of
Kenya's smallest and most charming tented
lodges.
The resident Hippo of Mara River Camp have
long ruled out any possibility of a swimming
pool, while roaming herds of bull Elephant
have also put an end to any exotic gardens.
However the indigenous shrubs are plentiful
and the surrounding trees house many
beautiful birds. Only a few kilometres
downstream the annual migration of the
Wildebeest and attendant Zebra and antelope
may be in full flow, as they run the
gauntlet of the dangers of the Mara River.
Mara River Camp is favored by naturalists,
wildlife researchers, film crews,
photographers and conservationists. Resident
guides are always available for informative
nature and bird walks. Being of Maasai
origin they delight guests with fascinating
insight to Maasai culture.
Room Features
The canvas tents have all the authenticity
of being 'in the bush' whilst providing all
the luxurious facilities for a most
comfortable stay. "We are lucky to have been
blessed with many charming aspects, as one
of the original lodges in the area we have
had years to perfect our winning combination
of comfort in the heart of nature".
Remarks
Like most of the lodges, the cuisine is
delicious and wholesome, the staff and
management are exceptionally friendly.
