Camp Details

Interact with the Maasai people that live along the Talek River as you discover the wonders of the Masai Mara National Reserve from Basecamp Masai Mara Camp.

Monkeys and birds provide a constant backing track, while the views across the river from the secluded camp are unimpeded by the magnificent trees that provide shade and privacy.

The closeness of the local Maasai village lets you gain unique insights into savannah lifestyles and enjoy a more authentic Maasai cultural experience.

No other camp can offer this degree of access to the Maasai – the most important stakeholders in our conservation efforts in the Masai Mara, and without whose cooperation this luxury safari camp simply could not exist.

Because the camp is run by our neighbours, you’ll enjoy a more holistic experience of what is one of the world’s most astonishing wilderness areas. This is a unique opportunity to not only enjoy a superb Masai Mara safari, but also to learn from the people who call this amazing landscape home.

WHY CHOOSE BASECAMP MASAI MARA?

  • Enjoy authentic Masai Mara cuisine at Basecamp Masai Mara as part of your stay, you’ll be eating meals based on ingredients grown in the camp’s organic vegetable garden.
  • This eco-friendly Masai Mara camp serves up the seclusion that is an essential component of all the best safari holidays.
  • The Camp has long been considered a model for sustainability and a leading example of partnership between the local Maasai community and conservationists and investors.
