Encounter Mara Camp
A traditional safari camp in the secluded Mara Naboisho Conservancy
Encounter Mara Camp
Encounter Mara Camp is a superb destination for families seeking both adventure and comfort in the heart of the Mara Naboisho Conservancy.
This eco-conscious camp, set amidst acacia trees, provides an ideal setting for families to immerse themselves in the rich wildlife and cultural experiences of the Masai Mara region.
Families will enjoy the daily game drives, where the vast wildlife includes everything from the famous Mara lions to herds of elephants, zebras, and giraffes. The conservancy is less crowded than the adjacent Masai Mara Reserve, providing an intimate and exclusive wildlife experience. Children and adults alike can marvel at predators like cheetahs and leopards or enjoy the sight of giraffes casually strolling through camp. For something truly thrilling, families can partake in night game drives to spot nocturnal animals in their natural habitat.
The camp also offers guided cultural visits to local Masai villages, providing an opportunity for families to learn about the traditional way of life. This hands-on experience can be particularly engaging for children, who can interact with local Maasai children and learn about their customs.
With wildlife just outside the tent and opportunities for adventure at every turn, Encounter Mara Camp balances nature and culture in a way that keeps every member of the family engaged and entertained—no matter their age.
