Mara River Tented Camp

Set out on guided game drives through the Lamai region and explore one of the Serengeti’s most wildlife-rich areas. Morning and evening safaris offer opportunities to follow animal activity across grasslands, river corridors and open plains while learning about the ecosystem from experienced guides and trackers. Wildlife sightings vary from day to day, but you may encounter lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, buffalo, Maasai giraffes and Bat-eared foxes during your stay.

Depending on the season, large herds of wildebeest may also move through the area as part of the Great Migration. Every drive is shaped by current wildlife movements, making each outing a different experience.

Explore the birdlife of the Lamai region with guides and trackers who know the area’s habitats, seasonal movements and resident species. The riverbanks, grasslands and woodland areas around camp attract a wide range of birds throughout the year, making every outing rewarding for both experienced birders and first-time enthusiasts. As you travel through the region, you’ll spot grey kestrels, Meyer’s parrots, grey-crowned cranes, African cuckoos, martial eagles, sunbirds and the distinctive pin-tailed whydah.

Your guide will help identify species by sight, behaviour and call, while sharing interesting facts about their habits and role within the ecosystem. No two birding excursions are ever alike.

Take time to slow down with a wellness experience set outdoors in the landscapes surrounding the camp. Guided by skilled therapists, each session is tailored to your preferences and may include massage techniques, meditation practices and sound-based elements designed to help you relax and recharge. Treatments begin with a traditional foot-soaking ritual before moving into a personalised programme shaped around how you would like to feel.

Conducted in an open-air setting, the experience allows you to disconnect from daily routines and focus on your wellbeing. Whether after a safari or as a dedicated part of your stay, it offers a restorative addition to your time in Lamai.
