Your Time at Mara Plains Camp

Watch the wide-mouthed hippos float around in the nearby river and be amazed. At this Masai Mara safari camp, you can stay in one of the high-end tented suites. You can spend your nights in a bed surrounded by real African furniture and decorations and listen to the roar of a lion or the flap of an elephant’s ears.

In the Masai Mara, you will spend your days following the fresh tracks that animals and people who were eaten have left behind. Spend time with trained guides and trackers who can explain how animals behave and answer any questions you may have about this ecosystem.

All the buildings are on raised decks, and no cement was used so that there will be no evidence of the camp if it is taken down. This act of kindness to the environment is in line with the lodge’s social duty, as they help the local communities.

As well as helping the Maasai people who live in the conservancy protect their wild areas, Mara Plains Camp also helps them. So that tourists can have a real experience on their Masai Mara safari, the area hasn’t been grown too much.

Place to stay

There are 5 Double or Twin Suites at Mara Plains Camp, as well as a Jahazi Suite with 2 bedrooms that is perfect for families.

Mara Plains Camp offers high-end, small-scale Masai Mara lodging to make sure that guests get the most out of their time in the wild. In this part of Kenya’s savannah, safari cars aren’t used very often, which makes every game drive fun.

Enjoy the peace and comfort of your suite, which is decorated in an interesting African style. In one of the deluxe tented safari rooms, you can enjoy a bath with a view of your own private vista.

Each of the open-plan rooms has a copper bathtub that stands alone and leads out to a private verandah where you can enjoy nature’s sights and sounds.

What to Eat on Safari

In the peace and quiet of your natural settings, you can eat outside while sitting with other travelers. You will be able to enjoy tasty meals while sitting around a warm campfire and talking about what you did that day. Eating in the bush is sure to be an experience you’ll never forget until you go back to Africa. If you let them know ahead of time, they can accommodate special food needs.

The place

Mara Plains Camp is on the Ntiakatek River in the private Olare Motorogi Conservancy. It is next to the Maasai Mara National Reserve on the north side.

Mara Plains Camp shares some of the amazing wildlife that lives in the Maasai Mara National Reserve, which is not far away. Lions, cheetahs, and leopards are just a few of the many species that live in this grassland. The Olare Motorogi Conservancy is a great place to see wildlife because it has too many safari cars and visitors.

Things to do

Since you live in the middle of a wild area, it makes sense to do things like watch animals. You can see some of Africa’s most beautiful animals while being driven through the bush in an open 4×4 and going for a walk in the animals to find new things.

Hot air balloon tours

For an extra fee, you can go on these trips that you will never forget. The herds that graze on the fields below can be seen from above as you drift over the Mara plains.

Game drives in the Masai Mara

4×4 drives in the early morning, late afternoon, and at night give you a good look at all the animals.

Wildlife walks are a great way to get a better look at the bush and sometimes even feel it. The walks in the bush are meant to teach you more about the plants and land formations that are important to the forest but don’t get talked about as much.

Visits to nearby villages

Maasai people in the area still live in a traditional way and aren’t very familiar with the modern advances of the West. Look into their society and enjoy how simple their ways are.
