Encounter Mara Camp

Encounter Mara Camp is an exceptional safari destination in the heart of the Naboisho Conservancy, a private and pristine wildlife sanctuary bordering Kenya’s famed Masai Mara National Reserve. Known for its exclusivity and intimate experiences, this camp offers a unique opportunity to explore one of Africa’s most spectacular ecosystems in comfort and seclusion.

What sets Naboisho Conservancy apart is its dedication to wildlife conservation and community empowerment. The conservancy hosts one of the highest densities of lions in Africa, making it a dream destination for wildlife enthusiasts and photographers alike. Unlike the often-crowded Masai Mara, Naboisho promises a tranquil and personalized adventure, where every moment in the wilderness feels like your own.

Whether it’s a thrilling game drive, a guided walking safari, or a cultural encounter with the local Maasai people, staying at Encounter Mara Camp means becoming part of a larger mission—to protect nature while uplifting the communities who call this land home.

Secluded and Luxurious Accommodation

From the moment you arrive at Encounter Mara Camp, you’re welcomed into a space where luxury meets nature. Each of the ten safari tents has been carefully positioned to ensure privacy and sweeping views of the surrounding savannah. Whether you’re gazing out over the plains or relaxing under the shade of a tree, the camp’s layout allows for peaceful solitude and undisturbed connection with the environment.

Thoughtfully Designed Safari Tents

Each tent at Encounter Mara Camp is a masterpiece of design and comfort. Crafted with three sturdy canvas walls for protection and one wall made entirely of mosquito netting, the tents create a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience. This setup offers you full immersion in the wild, allowing you to take in the sights, sounds, and fresh air of the African bush while staying completely safe and secure.

Inside, the attention to detail is evident. The tents are furnished with plush beds, stylish cushions, soft linens, and gentle lighting that together create a cozy, elegant ambiance. Whether you’re resting after a game drive or lounging with a book in hand, you’ll find your tent to be a peaceful sanctuary.

Ensuite Bathrooms with Sustainable Luxury

No detail has been overlooked when it comes to comfort and convenience. Each tent comes with a modern ensuite bathroom that includes solar-heated showers, eco-friendly toiletries, and flush toilets. These features strike a perfect balance between sustainability and indulgence, offering you the creature comforts of home while staying true to the camp’s eco-conscious values.

Outdoor Living: Private Verandas and Panoramic Views

One of the highlights of staying at Encounter Mara Camp is the private outdoor space that comes with every tent. Step onto your veranda, and you’ll find a peaceful retreat equipped with a chaise lounge, directors’ chairs, and a hammock. It’s the perfect spot to sip your morning coffee, read a book during the afternoon, or watch wildlife wander by as the sun sets in the distance.

The open-air design of the tents ensures you remain connected to nature at all times. With uninterrupted views and natural light streaming in, even time spent indoors feels like an outdoor experience. From your doorstep, you can witness everything from grazing zebras to distant elephants, all without ever leaving your room.

Sustainability and Community Commitment

Encounter Mara Camp is more than just a beautiful place to stay—it’s a model of responsible tourism. The camp plays a vital role in conservation by supporting the Naboisho Conservancy’s efforts to protect wildlife habitats. A portion of the camp’s revenue goes directly to local communities, helping to fund education, healthcare, and sustainable livelihoods.

By choosing to stay here, you’re not only treating yourself to an unforgettable adventure—you’re actively contributing to the preservation of Kenya’s natural and cultural heritage.
