Karen Blixen Camp offers an opulent experience, embodying a colonial atmosphere that harkens back to the 1920s, a time when Karen Blixen embarked on safaris across the Masai Mara savannahs. This safari camp in Kenya features 22 opulent canvas tents positioned on elevated wooden platforms, providing stunning views of a picturesque section of the Mara River.

The camp is strategically located for exceptional game viewing during the Great Wildebeest Migration. A particularly dramatic moment in this annual cycle occurs when thousands of these antelope must cross the Mara, which is inhabited by some of the largest crocodiles in Africa. The BBC’s Big Cat Diary is filmed at the Conservancy, where sightings of lions, cheetahs, and leopards are consistently impressive during game drives with Karen Blixen Camp.

Discover this dynamic region with the expertise of a seasoned Maasai tracker as you embark on game drives throughout your Maasai Mara safari. Explore the expansive African plains through a guided bush walk or enjoy a unique perspective of the wildlife from above while participating in an early morning hot air balloon safari over the Acacias.

Enjoy a refreshing afternoon by taking a swim in the pool, followed by a relaxing massage to rejuvenate your senses. In the evenings, explore the region’s nocturnal wildlife during a night drive, followed by a satisfying meal under the starry sky upon returning to camp.
