WHERE TO STAY IN MARA NORTH

AfricanMecca recommendations for Mara North Conservancy represent first-rate accommodations choices at all budget levels. Ngare Serian is our Tier 1 premier recommendation, offering only 4 luxury tents set within a sub-private conservancy.

Your boutique guest tent offers views of Kenya’s bush country, Mara River and wildlife from your private wooden deck, and even your bed! A small writing desk and other tasteful furnishings make you feel right at home. The ensuite bathroom has two sinks with vanity, shower, embedded stone bath and flush toilet. Saruni Mara and Elephant Pepper Camp are our other Tier 1 commendations in Mara North.



Our mid-range recommendation in Mara North is Royal Mara Safari Lodge as an 8 fused tented camp with rustic tiled roofs strategically located by the Mara River with easy access to Leopard Gorge, Hippo Bend Lagoon and other desirable fauna locations. Each guest tent features mahogany floors, private deck, hand-carved Akamba furniture and en-suite bathroom with dual-sink vanity, bidet, flush toilet and shower. Dining is normally al-fresco beside the hippo-filled river. Other Tier 2 recommended options in Mara North are Kicheche Mara Camp and Offbeat Mara Camp.



Our affordable Tier 3 recommendation in Mara North Conservancy is Speke’s Camp. Located near the Olare Orok River, the camp offers 8 guest tents, including a family tent. To ensure your sleeping comfort, Speke’s Camp offers tents with a double bed or single twin beds. The family tent has two queen size beds. Each tent has a simple tarp floor patio, solar power and ensuite bathroom with bucket shower, two sinks, vanity and flush toilet.



Even though Speke’s is located within the Mara North wilderness bordering Olare Motorogi, it does not have activity traversal rights to do its game drives or walks in the private conservancy; therefore, it is utilized as a strategic base for visiting the main reserve and its varied sites like the Talek and Mara Rivers, Paradise Plains, Rhino Ridge and Musiara Marsh. Only a week’s safari walk is available from Speke’s to Jan’s Camp.
