Our luxury tented rooms are furnished with all the amenities that you will require for a comfortable stay whilst visiting the Maasai Mara. The rooms can be converted into doubles, singles or triples depending on the bookings. Our family tent is spacious, and it can accommodate a group of between 4 and 6 guests. All our tents have both cold and hot running water for showers. The tents are furnished with a wash basin, toilet, luggage rack, reading table, mosquito nets and comfy safari chairs to experience the amazing views from the verandah.
We have three dining areas to offer you a once in a life time dining experience in the bush. Our main indoor dining area is mostly used when the weather is not suitable for outdoor dining under our shaded area or under the stars dining on our wooded deck.
The camp has two comfy lounges with the main lounge having an adjoined bar. Here you may share the day’s stories with your hosts or other guests. During the day the lounges have the best view of the plains of the expansive Maasai Mara and perhaps you may be lucky to capture the actions from some of our resident wildlife.

We offer up to three game drives daily, designed around giving our guests the best game viewing experience possible. Our 4×4 land cruiser safari vehicles depart early in the morning, and late in the afternoon when the temperature is cooler and the big cats are more active. This is also the best time for our photography enthusiasts, as the lighting is still soft. Our expert guides will teach you about the bush, while you encounter the Big Five and the other wildlife.
This is the best way of getting closer to nature and its wildlife. Your senses of sight, smell, taste, touch and hearing would be put to action at every step; Here you will step out of your safari vehicle and our qualified Maasai naturalist with another armed and experienced guide leads this walking safari. Get closer to the giraffes, zebras, impalas and other plains game, smell some of the plants, taste some of the edible plants, touch some of the wildlife products, hear those snorting impala rams roaring, identify foot prints left by lions or leopards at night and other game and identify some interesting small game like spiders, butterflies, dung beetles, termites amongst others.
Visit one of the villages in the Mara and learn a lot about our Maasai people and their interesting cultures. Here you will photograph Maasai warriors and women as they take you through their different mesmerizing songs with great jumps and moves. They will also welcome you to join them at your own choice. Thereafter the Maasai cultural guide will take you to see Maasai huts and the cattle/sheep/goats/ lion proof kraal. You will also get to learn and experience their culture. This is not inclusive of our rates. It costs 15$ per person per visit.
Seeing Mara and its great wildlife from above is just breathtaking. Balloon rides last for about 45 minutes to about 1 Hour 15 minutes before having our famous champagne breakfast. This experience is not inclusive of our rates and is paid for separately. Please contact our reservation desk or your preferred travel agent for rates.
Our afternoon game drives offer our guests fantastic wildlife sightings. As the temperature cool, and the sun dips below the horizon, the bush comes alive. Big cats awaken from their daytime rest and bush’s nocturnal residents become active. As the day transitions into evening, our guides find a safe spot to stop the game drive vehicles, and treat our guests to a sundowner and some snacks.
