down the river in cottages, bandas and single or twin rooms,
all facing the river. Everything is geared to making

room is open on the river side with long table and large

the water and is a great vantage point for the nightly feeding
of crocodiles.
KEEKOROK
LODGE*****
Keekorok Lodge is Masai Mara's first lodge, and it has retained
its charm, and hospitality throughout the years. At the
southern end of 1,510 sq km Mara paradise, and right in
the path of the annual migration of wildebeest and zebra,
lies Keekorok Lodge. The lodge is enveloped by the swarming
mass of animals. One need hardly venture from ground to
game view. From the verandah, and from Kiboko, there is
plenty to see.
FIG
TREE CAMP****

in the world famous Maasai Mara Game Reserve. The Camp is
situated on the northern border of the game reserve and
its central location makes all areas of the park accessible
during game drives. The choice of accommodation is either
in a tent or in a cabin. The rooms spaciously line up along
the Talek River, overlooking the plains of the game reserve.

cottages; also ensuite. There is a swimming pool and satellite

up with international events in the middle of the African
savanna.
KICHWA
TEMBO TENTED CAMP - Place of the Elephant****
Overlooking endless, game-filled plains and shaded by dense
forest canopy, this oasis of classic safari tents nestles
below the Oloololo Escarpment on the western boundary of
the Maasai Mara reserve. Each spacious tent affords total
privacy and the privilege of sweeping views over the greatest
grassland system on earth. But it is the breathtaking sight
of more than a million wildebeest and zebra braving the
turbulent Mara River in their stampede towards the northern
grasslands each July to September for which Kichwa Tembo
is most renowned. Witnessing this ancient and often tragic
spectacle is a profoundly stirring experience.
