This is the ultimate safari to the most remarkable wilderness in Africa, where you will encounter the rare, the timeless and the spectacular. Experience secret corners of Africa’s most thrilling, awe-inspiring conservation area, the iconic Masai Mara ecosystem, in total exclusivity and luxury.
Delight in the teeming open plains and endless horizons alive with activity – the savannah and the river systems supporting the highest density of predators and wildlife on earth. Celebrate nature in all frames and forms and encounter the most enthralling natural spectacle on the planet – the Great Migration, on this soul-filling journey through classic Africa.
You stay at Saruni Mara; the lodge has one family villa, one private villa and five elegant cottages. It is the only small boutique lodge in Mara, making it intimate and exclusive. The lodge is tucked away in a secluded valley in the private Mara North Conservancy, a prime and private game viewing area that borders the Masai Mara National Reserve – Africa’s most renowned wildlife park.
Ideally, you can stay at Saruni Wild Camp instead of Saruni Mara, a tented camp elegantly and comfortably furnished with all the necessary luxuries of a wild yet classic safari. The camp is in the heart of the Masai Mara plains, on the border between Lemek Conservancy and Mara North Conservancy. The camp has the most classic Masai Mara setting, surrounded by thousands of acres of pristine, untouched wilderness. The wildlife thrives right next to its tents.
A bespoke experience created to maximized by adventure and luxury.
Arrive at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, where our driver will transfer you to Wilson Airport for your flight to Masai Mara.

Game drive with a picnic lunch to enjoy under an acacia tree, by the river next to a pod of hippos, or head to Saruni Mara or Saruni Wild for rest.
Game drive later in the afternoon in Lemek conservancy and Mara North Conservancy (MNC) – over 30,000 acres of plentiful, protected land bordering the Masai Mara National Reserve. Enjoy a completely different and less-explored corner of the Mara ecosystem in total privacy, brimming with wildlife. Then, weather permitting, experience a bush dinner in the middle of nature under the vast African sky, with Maasai warriors singing and dancing around the fire.




Early morning game drives to look for Mara’s big cats and other predators, returning to the camp or lodge for lunch and treatments at the Maasai Wellbeing Space, surrounded by teeming wildlife in a classic Masai Mara setting.
In the afternoon, a game drive will take you to a special area where the largest tower of giraffes can be seen, followed by dinner at the lodge or camp and an optional night game drive.

Following lunch, in the afternoon, you will discover more of Mara North and its surrounding conservancies and experience first-hand what makes the Mara one of the most exciting wildernesses in the world, overlooking the immense plains surrounding you before heading back to the lodge or camp for a hearty dinner.
