The chef come to see us each time at end of diner to ask our comments and choose the next day menu. Steve (the GM)... More

We have been on many safaris, but this was our first Kenyan safari. I selected this camp because I loved the comments found on Trip Advisor, and I got a very good feeling about the Mara Explorer. Also, compared to other luxury camps in the Mara, the price was right. We spent six nights at this camp, December 2012. Originally,... More

After visiting Amboseli Nationalpark we went for our next stay at the Mara Explorer Camp. Wonderful camp directly located at Talek River. You can watch hippos and crocodiles very close. Excellent food and very friendly staff. We felt very much at home. The game drives were a highlight - a very special thank to Dennis Waweru our driver. He has... More

We stayed here on our safari trip and this place is middle of nowhere but once you get there and see the place you will be blown away!!! Service the staff the scenery no faults found really excellent and plan to go again. 2 nights was enough as plenty more places to see as well. Nice and a belated thank... More

Many have already well described this camp so this is just an additional grade to confirm that this place is close to perfection and most definitely in our top 3 for wildlife holidays. After a short but rather bumpy flight from Nairobi we have been welcomed by Steve the Manager and Dickson our guide. We have then been brought to... More

From the moment we were picked up at the airstrip, it was like stepping into a dream! It is hard to believe that a tent camp could rival one of our stays at a Four Seasons hotel, but it did! Because there were only ten tents in this camp, we had a totally pampered experience. The chef, Josphat’s meals were... More

First of all we would like to say THANK YOU again to the whole staff of the Mara Explorer Camp. Steve and his whole team were most friendly, helpful and hospitable. We were really treated like a family member. From the very first moment we felt completely in love with this magic place. For us it is the HEAVEN ON... More

The camp is intimate and personal without being fussy. We were fortunate to have Tent 4 with the antics of our hippo and baboon neighbours to watch from the lovely outdoor bath. Remember to have wine or a cocktail served to your tent to enjoy in the bath! If, however, you prefer complete quiet at night, this may not be... More

We stayed at Mara Explorer Camp in January for 4 nights. There are only ten tents and we stayed in Tent #7. All of the tents overlook a river that is populated with herds of hippos. The tents are spaced far enough away from each other that you have complete privacy from other guests. The camp host, Steve, treated us... More
