Overview

Offbeat Mara Camp is traditional Safari at its very best- private and small, the camp offers excellent game viewing in one of the most famous Safari destinations in the world. Just six tents, and a prime location means that we can provide a truly individual and tailored approach to your holiday. This small and exclusive tented camp offers game-viewing in both the serene and unspoilt Mara North Conservancy, and close access to the famous Masai Mara National Reserve.

Offbeat Mara Camp, along with several other camps in the area, founded the Mara North Conservancy in January 2009. A pristine reserve of 74,000 acres with a strict cap on visitor and vehicle numbers, The Mara North is incredibly rich in wildlife and has one of the lowest densities of tourist visitors in the greater Mara ecosystem.

The camp's location is on the Olare Orok, a meandering tributary of the Mara River. The Olare Orok cuts through the centre of the Mara North Conservancy, a vivid swathe of green that allows an unrivalled habitat for Game. Offbeat Mara Camp nestles into a valley in the middle of this wilderness, a doubly protected area that provides guests with unparalled game viewing. Four of the 'Big Five' - Lion, Leopard, Elephant and Buffalo are all seen regularly around camp, and the valley never fails to provide our guest with game-viewing of all sorts. Most importantly, the camp is far away from other lodges. We aim to provide guests with great game viewing 'away from the masses'.

The camp sleeps just 12 guests in six traditional safari tents. Each tent has an en-suite bathroom with hot bucket showers, wash basins and flush loos. The tents are all furnished with large, handmade cedar beds, 24hour solar lighting and the finest linen. Informal dining is hosted in the mess tent or around the campfire. Delicious English Breakfasts, light Lunches and three course Dinners are served each evening. Guests can relax in the bar and 'mess' tent, with comfortable sofas, a writing desk and library with wildlife picture and guide books.
