My family of five spent just over two months in Kenya and visiting the Mara was certainly one of our most memorable highlights. We've been on safari before and hands down, Encounter Mara takes the prize. The service and attention we received was second to none.

The staff is all Masai except for the managers (Echeday and Nina) who made my stay in Masai Mara unforgetable. The game rides have always a guide and the "spotter", both Masai and... More

Encounter Mara is set up to cater to those looking for a relaxing break with a focus on viewing wildlife.
