Your own luxury home in Africa
Nestled high above the wildlife-rich plains on three of the Maasai Mara’s renowned rocky outcrops, called kopjes, Angama Mara offers stunning vistas and meticulously curated safari adventures. These kopjes, one of which was a filming location for scenes in “Out of Africa,” create a profound sense of return, evoking the feeling of coming home.
Angama Mara, accessible via its own airstrip, comprises two distinct luxury camps, each with only 15 tents that provide commanding views of the plains below. The Pavilion, centrally located between the camps, features an infinity pool, a gift shop, Wi-Fi, a library, a well-appointed fitness room, and a spacious deck. From this vantage point, guests can savor the Mara’s dramatic sunrises, sunsets, and ever-changing landscapes—all just a short 10-minute walk from any tent in either camp.

Angama Mara’s tented luxury suites capture the natural elegance and quiet beauty of the Maasai Mara. Each suite, spanning over 320 square feet, features a nearly 40-foot-wide floor-to-ceiling glass front, gleaming parquet floors, exquisite interior decor, Wi-Fi, and a charming collection of African-themed books. Guests can enjoy expansive views from the bed, bath, sitting area, and the open-to-infinity deck, where private meals can be served.
As we like to say, these are tents in the same sense that the Empire State Building is just an office building. The King of Canvas has truly outdone himself at Angama Mara, crafting luxurious and imaginative dwellings that honor the finest safari traditions.
Game viewing in the Maasai-Mara, the more verdant northern segment of the vast Serengeti-Maasai Mara ecosystem, is as rewarding as game viewing gets on planet Earth. The great cyclical migration of millions of herbivores and their carnivore predators occurs throughout the year, peaking in July through November. But the mass movement is relatively constant, and the fabled Big Five (elephant, leopard, Cape Buffalo, lion, and dinasauric rhino) are always in residence. Our safari game drives are designed for flexibility (of time, game locations, and your naturalist predilections) and our Micato Safari Director, who knows the Mara intimately, is always ready to honour our preferences.
Micato’s half-century-plus in the safari business has taught us that people come to Africa see its animals, but leave in love with its people. Angama Mara is well staffed with local Maasai, from naturalists and bakers to the camp manager himself; every evening at sunset Maasai warriors (or moran) visit the lodge to perform their dramatic dances, and in the craft studio guests can take a well-tutored crack at traditional crafts, jazzing up their safari jackets or sweaters, say, with classic Maasai beads. And when we visit a local manyatta, or village, our Safari Director is greeted as a familiar elder, and we are welcomed as interesting new friends.
Have you ever leaned out of a second-floor window to pet a giraffe on the head? Probably not. At Giraffe Manor, these gentle giants feel right at home as they freely roam the property. They often poke their heads through open windows, bend their necks to greet you on the terrace, and even join you for breakfast, happily accepting snacks from your hand. Spending time with these extraordinary creatures at Giraffe Manor offers a truly unique and unforgettable experience for guests of all ages.
Giraffe Manor lives up to its name: a charming, Victorian-style mansion with a resident herd of endangered Rothschild giraffes strolling around the grounds, which feature manicured lawns and 140 acres of indigenous forest. It’s quite a sight to see these towering residents peek into the dining room windows at breakfast. Luckily, they prefer acacia leaves over pancakes!
Beautifully adorned in high colonial plantation style, Hemingways Nairobi is a boutique hotel situated in the lush and serene suburb of Karen. Every room offers evocative views of the beloved Ngong Hills from its balcony.
Hemingways merits the highest praise, whether it’s rated five stars or more. The hotel boasts top-tier amenities, including one of Nairobi’s premier restaurants, spacious and artistically decorated rooms, a luxurious spa, and exceptional, friendly, and 24-hour service. Our experience and that of our guests confirm Hemingways’ promise: “Your dedicated butler will know you prefer Earl Grey over Assam with your scones and Cornish clotted cream, and he’ll remember which trousers you like pressed flat and which need a central crease.”
