Mara Nyika, meaning large plains or great plains, is a four tent camp is set in a valley, with a small stream on the western side of Naboisho bordering Maasai Mara. Privacy is key to Mara Nyika. Privacy to live, think, explore, be romantic and be pampered – all the while with one of the best backdrops Africa can provide. Many guests may opt to spend a few days in Mara Nyika combined with a stay at either Mara expedition or Mara plains camp to get exposure to all three wildlife areas. Each wildlife experience from these camps is unique and offers a different face of the incredible Maasai Mara ecosystem.

Accommodation

The camp’s four light-coloured canvas tents were designed to sit under the canopy of thorn trees while still offering guests views out over the plains. Walkways from the tents to the main area evoke the feeling of a treehouse under canvas. The suite includes the services of a private butler, chef and services of a private game viewing vehicle and guide. Mara Nyika allows guests to explore the private 50,000-acre Naboisho area. Naboisho means coming together in Maa language and represents the 500 local landowners. The model combines nature, heritage, tourism and local communities. Each guest’s stay supports over 500 Maasai families.
