Mara Plains Camp
Mara Plains Camp is set right in the heart of some of the greatest predator country in Africa-The Masai Mara . The camp is located on the northern border of the Maasai Mara Game Reserve in the Olare Orok Conservancy. Mara Plains offers an unparalleled adventure into one of the most iconic wildlife destinations on the planet, where the battle for survival plays out in front of you each and every day…
Rarely a night passes without lion roaring nearby, while leopard are regularly found to wander through the camp and cheetah have established territories on the savannah off the main area.
Mara Plains Camp is a small, high quality, 07-roomed camp under canvas and on raised decks with sweeping views across Kenya’s notable savannahs. It is among the smallest and most personal camps in the Mara region. As one of just three camps currently operating within the Conservancy, which boasts the region’s lowest vehicle density, no mini-buses and only one guest room per 700 acres. It is possible to avoid the high tourist density of the Maasai Mara Game Reserve proper, if desired.
No other camp in the greater Maasai Mara Game Reserve or Olare Orok Conservancy has the privilege of traversing opportunities of Mara Plains Camp. Guests are able to traverse three areas as part of their stay at Mara Plains.
Mara Plains Camp is secluded, and it isn’t until just before you cross the memorable and grand swing bridge steps that it reveals itself. Once across the river, and under the cool shade of the trees, there is a lovely open grass area leading to the main area.
Accommodation and Meals
Mara Plains Camp has 7 canvas tents accommodating 14 guests. Each is raised on decks, and opens on three sides to the outside. Floor to ceiling net walls and the marquis ceiling make for very open-air environs. The rooms have a dressing area as well as private verandahs with seating and exquisite views.

Complementary refreshments and snacks are served on all our drives and include tea and coffee on the morning drive and the traditional “sundowner” cocktail in the late afternoon. Special meals and dietary requirements can be catered for on request. However, please note, due to the remoteness of the Mara Plains Camp location, requests should be in advance.
