MARA PORINI LION CAMP
Masai Mara
Kenya

Introduction

The Camp is located on the banks of the Ntiakatiak River, a season river with some nearby hippo pools in the exclusive Olare Orok Conservancy. This expansive conservancy which borders the Masai Mara Game Reserve is home to an abundance of animals, although it is famous for the big cats that roam the plains.

Camp Description

There are 10 luxury tents with private verandas along the length of the tent for viewing the African bush. The tents have en-suite bathrooms, flush toilet and safari showers. Home baked bread, fresh salads and scrumptious meals are prepared by the camp Chef.

Game Viewing

The Masai Mara boasts astonishing amount of game within its borders. Gazelle, wildebeest and zebra graze in large numbers and where prey is found so are predators. The famous black-maned Mara lions are possibly the stars of the Mara show. In earlier times the Masai were renowned lion killers and it is said that if lions scent approaching Masai on the breeze they move swiftly in the opposite direction. The reserve also teems with cheetah, elephant, kongoni, topi, Thompson's gazelle, waterbuck, hyena, and primates. Every year the Masai Mara hosts the world's greatest natural spectacle, the Great Migration of wildebeest and zebra from the Serengeti. From July to October, the promise of rain and fresh grass on in the Mara plains attracts more than 1.3 million wildebeest together in a single massive herd. At the Mara River they mass together on the banks before plunging forward through the raging waters, fighting against the currents and waiting crocodiles.
