Located within the 50,000-acre Naboisho Conservancy, the camp offers an exclusive safari experience with a limited number of guests. Game drives are available in the early morning, late afternoon, and at night, providing opportunities to observe a wide variety of wildlife, including nocturnal species.
Optional activities may include hot air balloon safaris over the nearby Maasai Mara, bush breakfasts, and cultural visits to local Maasai communities. Guests may also use camp-provided cameras and equipment to capture wildlife and scenery during their stay.
Set within a private wildlife conservancy bordering Kenya’s legendary Masai Mara, Mara Bushtops offers an exclusive safari experience surrounded by pristine wilderness. Spacious luxury tented suites, panoramic views and attentive personal service create an exceptional retreat, while the camp’s privileged location provides remarkable wildlife encounters throughout the conservancy and the greater Masai Mara ecosystem.
A defining feature of Mara Bushtops is its substantial natural salt lick, situated directly in front of the restaurant and spa. Throughout the day and night, elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, impalas, topis and other wildlife gather within metres of the camp to replenish essential minerals, occasionally accompanied by lions and leopards. This ever-changing spectacle allows guests to experience the magic of the Mara without leaving the comfort of camp.
Mara Plains Camp enjoys exclusive access across the key areas of the Maasai Mara ecosystem, including permission to move freely between conservancies—creating exceptional opportunities to follow wildlife wherever activity unfolds, especially in this predator-rich region. With only seven rooms, the camp offers an intimate and peaceful atmosphere, set beneath the cool canopy of riverine forest and thoughtfully designed to minimise environmental impact while maintaining luxury. The elevated canvas suites overlook a quiet creek, placing you at the heart of nature, where giraffes graze nearby, elephants wallow in the mud, and baboons play—while the view from your private veranda is truly unforgettable.
The sound of “Ishara” seems to drift effortlessly across the rolling grasses of the Maasai plains. Meaning “sign” in Swahili, the name draws us back time and again to this pocket of African beauty. In Kenya’s Maasai Mara, wildlife is everywhere—hippos, buffalo, hyenas, lions, leopards, and cheetahs roam freely. The camp blends harmoniously into its natural setting, tucked among cooling greenery and anchored by a grand old olive tree. Elevated walkways link the tents, offering both privacy and comfort in a well-concealed retreat—an ideal base for discovering the wildlife-rich Maasai Mara National Reserve.
