A luxurious, well-run nature filled haven. Peaceful, serene, sublime... From start to finish our experience at Mara River Camp was everything we hoped it would be. Alice, in the Nairobi office, answered our emails and WhatsApp questions promptly and accurately. She made booking flights on the small safari planes easy and stress free and also communicated with the chef at the property to make sure our special dietary needs were accommodated. She was delightful to interact with. Alice also arranged to have us picked up at the airstrip in one of the camp’s safari vehicles. Our ride to the camp seemed like a mini safari! It was amazing how many animals we saw just from the airstrip to the camp. When we arrived at the camp we were met with warm and genuine hospitality by a tall Maasai with elegant manners and an extraordinary command of English. As he gave us the grand tour of our “new home” (which it truly became for the next week) it was evident that Ezekiel, the camp’s managing director, wanted to ensure that we enjoyed our stay. As he showed us around the camp he told us about the family groups of animals that live at Mara River camp. These residents are one of the main reasons why this camp is such a special place. The property is located on directly on the Mara River, which unlike other rivers in the Maasai Mara region never dries up. Throughout the year the river flows and is home to hippopotamus and other wildlife. Just off of the elegant dining room and bar, is a terrace at the river’s edge that overlooks hippopotamus pools. Throughout the day we were entertained by these unusual creatures as they frolicked in the water, especially while we ate breakfast or enjoyed a sunset cocktail. Our first day, we were enjoying a delicious lunch prepared by Chef Julius, when the resident family of zebras appeared and began to graze on the lawn in front of restaurant.
