The place

The Mara Rianta Camp is a high-end safari camp in Kenya’s Masai Mara. It is in the Mara North Conservancy.

An area of 30 000 hectares that is privately owned and is part of the Mara ecosystem. The Masai Mara National Reserve is right next to it. The Maasai people who own the land rent it to people. There is a lot of African wildlife there. The famous Great Migration goes through the park every year from July to November. The conservancy has fewer tourists than the Reserve, and it is a great place to see wildlife.

How to Get to Explorean Mara Rianta Camp

By Air

Day after day, flights go from Wilson Airport in Nairobi to Mara North (Buffalo) Airstrip. You can also take a flight that is just for you. You’ll be met by a lodge guide who will drive you to the camp. This is the first part of your safari: a short game drive.

Things to do

There are many things to do in Kenya during your luxury vacation. Some of them are game drives during the day and at night, guided walks, and hot air balloon safaris.

Game Drives

In the Masai Mara National Reserve, you can go on guided game drives to see the area’s amazing wildlife. The private conservancy is open for game drives early in the morning, all day, and at night from Exploreans Mara Rianta Camp. They are conducted in specially designed safari vehicles and are led by knowledgeable local guides. Full day game drives will stop off in the Masai Mara National Reserve for a picnic lunch.

Early Morning Game Drive

The early morning game drive leaves before sunrise. There is time for a quick cup of coffee before heading out. Let the rangers guide you through the wonders of the African bush. Spot animals such as Giraffe, Elephants, Impala, Topi and Wildebeest. Around mid-morning, return to camp and tuck into a delicious breakfast.

Afternoon Game Drives

In the mid afternoon tea will be served, after which the afternoon game drive will depart. This is the time of day when many of the animals are active and sightings are generally good. As the sun sets the vehicle will head back to the lodge and you can enjoy refreshing sundowners.

Guided Nature Walks

You can experience the thrill of seeing wildlife while on foot during a guided nature walk during your luxury holiday in Kenya. The ranger will teach you how to read the signs of the bush and brief you on how to approach animals while maintaining a safe distance. They will teach you about the local plants and how they are used in bush survival.

Safari in a hot air balloon

A Hot Air Balloon Safari is one of the iconic safari experiences of an East African safari. It is one of the most wonderful ways to take in the scale and spectacle of the Great Migration. From the air it is easy to see the millions of Wildebeest, Zebra, Topi down below. The flights generally take off just before dawn and last for approximately an hour.

The Maasai Mara is named in part after the local tribe who own the land that the reserve covers. One of the most recognisable tribes in Africa is the Maasai who are known for their distinctive red style of dress and vibrant culture. They are pastoralists that have lived in harmony with the wildlife for centuries. Visit a local village and gain insights into their everyday life on the plains of Africa.

After an exciting morning out on safari you can indulge in some relaxation at the Mvua African Rain spa which offers a range of massages as well as facials and body treatments. Relax to the gentle sounds of the Mara River and feel your cares drift away.
