Encounter Mara Camp
Situated on the edge of the savannah under the shade of acacia trees, Encounter Mara is a 10-tent camp within the Mara Naboisho Conservancy, bordering the famed Masai Mara reserve in southwest Kenya.
OVERVIEW:
Enjoy some of the best game viewings in Africa all year round from this superb eco-camp's low-key yet lavish comfort. Shaded by a thick acacia forest, Encounter Mara enjoys glorious views of the surrounding savannah. At the same time, closer at hand, a salt lick attracts a range of animals throughout the day, from plains game to big cats. The sheer comfort of the traditional-style safari camp and the opportunity for bush walks and night drives means that there are few more rewarding places to experience this slice of wild Africa.

From Encounter Mara, guests can go on nature walks around camp or soar across the plains in a hot-air balloon.
