Located outside the
Masai Mara National Reserve, at the foot of the Aitong Hills,
this safari Camp occupies a bend of the Mara river, right
next to a resident population of hippos. Each one of the 50
tents, set amongst nice gardens with indigenous vegetation,
has a veranda overlooking the river. Ten of the tents are
premium, having a sunken bath in the bathroom.
The Mara Safari Club
offers three standard daily game drives, included in the price:
early morning (6.30am to 8.30am), mid-morning (10.30am to
12.30pm), and afternoon (3.30pm to 6.00pm). Additionally,
there is a full day excursion for the stamina-plenty travellers,
lasting from 8.00am to 5.00pm. The drives are conducted by
experienced guides, while the camp's resident naturalist is
in charge of the birding walks in the surroundings, as well
as the 2-hour morning walks (though here accompanied by an
armed guard and 2 Maasai warriors in complete lion-frightening
outfits). Balloon safaris and fishing trips to Lake Victoria
are also offered.
The camp has a nice swimming pool and
a restaurant that serves European, African and Asian dishes.
Maasai dances, cultural talks, and slide shows are presented,
alternating every 3rd day, in the lounge from 7.30pm.
