About Mara Hilltop

We're a family-run safari camp at the edge of the Maasai Mara. Five minutes from the main Sekenani Gate. Three tiers, one ownership, one set of standards.

Where we are

On a hilltop overlooking the Maasai Mara National Reserve. The main Sekenani Gate is a five-minute drive from camp — many travel guides incorrectly say thirty-five minutes; they are out of date. The drive from Nairobi is five to six hours by road or 45 minutes by air to Keekorok or Ol Kiombo.

Three tiers, one camp

Most camps on the edge of the Mara pick a price point and stick to it. We run three tiers on one site: luxury tents, standard tents, and a hostel. Same kitchen, same staff, same access to game drives. Different beds and different price.

Why we built it this way

Because the people who come to the Mara are not all the same. Honeymooners and backpackers and Indian families and solo women travellers all want the same access to the wildlife and the same kindness from the staff. The bed is the thing that differs.
