Mara plains stretch wide,

Wildebeest in endless flow

Life dances by the stream.

Here, beneath the African sky,

life moves in timeless rhythm,

and every moment is a quiet celebration.

Camp Reviews

  • This was the first stop in our safari tour of Kenya. Everything was absolutely incredible, service, food, accommodations, all first class! Highly recommended and we would return here if we were going back to Mara. If you are going, arranging a sundowner is a must!

  • Great location, lovely camp, friendly helpful staff, brilliant drivers.
    We had a fantastic experience, we watched a hippo in the Talek river fromm our verhanda, the accomodation is very well appointed, the restaurant and lounge very comfortable, food is excellent and varied, the staff learnt our preferences which made us feel very special. We loved the open safari jeep, and we had a wonderful experience.

  • Awesome experience! From the beautifully-kind and friendly personalities of all of the staff ( emphasis on ALL)! I saw lions, a leopard, zebras, elephants, ostriches and other animals on safari before and after reaching the glamping site. The accommodations are clean and very nice providing basic needs including soap and lotion that’s a mosquito repellent. I felt safe and relaxed. Food is decent. But once again, the people/customer service was authentically-caring and so friendly! I really enjoyed my stay! I can’t wait to visit again! Asante Sanaa
