Amid the confluence of rivers,
where the Mara meets the Talek,
We dwell in quiet elegance.
Here, hippos bathe in twilight’s glow
As your breath meets the breeze that flows.

Hidden within the ravine forests of the Masai Mara, Mara Ngenche Safari Camp offers an unparalleled blend of intimacy and luxury.
Overlooking the vibrant confluence of the Mara and Talek Rivers, where hippos and crocodiles linger in the waters below, our camp provides a front-row seat to the drama of the African wilderness.

MARA NGENCHE SAFARI
Camp Reviews
Outstanding. The accommodation is fabulous with a beautiful bed, bath and shower. Location is fantastic for game drives. But what makes this camp the best is the staff. Raphael looked after us so well with all meals and special requests, Simon was the best chef ever and Eric looked after our room beautifully. We were so spoilt. We loved every minute of it, especially being near the hippos in the river and hearing them honking. We would go back tomorrow if we could. Thank you to all the staff with the manager Paul always helpful.

WOW! Mara Ngenche was a truly memorable experience. From the incredible staff, beautiful tents, and A+ quality game drives (vehicles + guides) it ticked all the boxes for a magical Mara Safari trip.
This was our 3rd year in the Mara for our August Safari and Ngenche did not disappoint!Mara Ngenche Camp

If you have only one place to visit in your life, you must come to the Mara Ngenche Safari Camp. The entire staff went above and beyond to make our “once in a lifetime trip truly memorable.” They went above and beyond every single day to make us feel welcome. Gladys, our guide was fantastic! She knew the Mara intimately and shared her love of the Mara and the beautiful animals that inhabit it. I cannot say enough nice things about our visit. The food was outstanding! The presentation was right up there with a five-star restaurant. I would come back in a heartbeat!
