From the second you are greeted on the runway by the smily enthusiastic staff your life will change forever. It exceeded my expectations beyond explanation - from the extremely helpful and enthusiastic staff and the hospitality, the animals, the food, to the incredible day to day experiences that is Mara Plains Camp. I could go on forever but I think... More

My husband and I spent 5 nights at Mara Plains in mid-November, and it seems we could not have chosen a better time and a better place. It turned out that we were the only guests at the end of the season and shortly before the camp is to undergo a thorough renovation - not that it needs that in... More

My husband and I stayed at Mara Plains for four nights in October. It exceeded our expectations in every dimension. The wildlife was amazing. We had no idea that we would see that quantity and variety of animals. Cats everywhere. Babies everywhere. We saw a kill, steal, and crossing. Our guide Daniel was fantastic and we can't imagine a better... More

We recently stayed 3 nights at this camp and had a fantastic time. We have been fortunate to have been on safari a number of times and this rates as one of the best. Richard and Lorna are excellent hosts who do everything possible to make your stay with them as good as it can be. A safari is made... More

I stayed at Mara Plains on the last leg of my first safari in September 2012. Although the entire trip was fantastic, they definitely saved the best for last. Mara Plains was enchanting and I felt like I was living in the BBC series "Big Cat Diary" the entire time. Richard and Lorna were amazing hosts. They were so friendly... More

My husband and I stayed at the Mara Plains Camp while on safari in the Masai Mara for four days in July. Being an avid photographer, this camp suited our purposes exceedingly well because the game drives prioritized your nature experience and so we did not have to return to camp for set meal times. The camp is owned by... More

Mara Plains is fantastic! First of all the camp is just outside the Maasai Mara National Reserve in the Olare Orok Conservancy and only the camps in side Olare Orok Conservancy can travel within the Conservancy. This means that there will be very few vehicles when there is a siding. There are 4 lion prides in the conservancy, so on... More

The atmosphere at this camp was quite nice. Our tent (#6?) was very comfortable with a good porch view of the plains. Our guide Kevin was incredible - he always knew where to go and his instincts were remarkable. He's from the area and knows every part of the park. With him we were able to see some of the... More
