Zebra Plains Masai Mara Camp

Zebra Plains Mara Camp is found in the Masai Mara National Reserve which is considered to be the best place for a wildlife adventure in Kenya. The National Reserve is home to hundreds of animals including the annual wildebeest migration that starts from Serengeti in Tanzania to Masai Mara in Kenya and then back following the rain patterns. The camp is convenient for tourists on both leisure and business visits to Kenya. It will take you 5 to 6 hours by road from Nairobi to get to the camp and about an hour to fly to the nearest Olkiombo airstrip where a safari vehicle will take you to the camp in 25 minutes.

The zebra plains camp is under the management of the Zebra plain collection that offers some of the best accommodations in the different parts of Kenya. The camp can be booked all year round and we advise that you book in advance to get the best services from the camp especially during the peak season from June to September when the annual wildebeest migration takes place.

We have two deluxe family villas which have facilities like a dining area that can easily turn into a room, a lounge, private verandas, king-size beds, and triple or twin beds, and can house a maximum of 8 people. The family villas are spacious and each of these has its facilities guaranteeing privacy to all guests staying at the deluxe family villas. It is recommended for families of people, couples, and about 6 adults but we do not recommend it for more than two couples since they will be too crowded. Two of the luxury tents were specifically set aside for couples on their honeymoon.
