Encounter Mara Camp

Boutique Luxury in the Heart of Lion Country

In the Mara Naboisho Conservancy in southwest Kenya, next to the famous Maasai Mara Reserve, is boutique Encounter Mara Camp.
Enjoying a wonderfully secluded location, you can witness the world’s highest concentration of lion surrounded by comfort, romance and the people and culture of Naboisho. With magnificent wildlife on your doorstep, you will experience the perfect intersection of tourism, conservation and community.
Enjoy our exceptional hospitality, offering sensational service, guiding and hosting within this game-rich conservancy. Our camp is designed for maximum sustainability, ensuring a light footprint and the best wildlife-viewing adventures.

Luxury Living,
Safari Style

With ten spacious tents, you’ll feel at home at Encounter Mara Camp. En suite bathrooms provide ultimate comfort with plumbed hot-water showers. Relax on the daybed on your veranda with views across the plains, or fall asleep at night accompanied by the distant and sometimes not so distant, roaring of lion.
