Mara Plains Camp Highlights

Mara Plains Camp is located within the private Olare Orok Conservancy just a few hundred meters north of the Masai Mara National Reserve boundary in Kenya. Mara Plains is small and personal catering for a maximum of 12 guests only. The camp offers a superb location which appears to be the focal point of many big cats' hunting grounds. Hardly a night goes by without exciting predator activity and roaring of lions nearby.
