The Ritz-Carlton, Masai Mara Safari Camp Is Now Ope

Preview & Review: The Ritz-Carlton, Masai Mara Safari Camp

The plains of Kenya have long been the stage for nature’s most dramatic spectacle—the Great Migration. Now, a new level of luxury hospitality has arrived in the heart of this wilderness: The Ritz-Carlton Masai Mara Safari Camp. Blending the raw beauty of the savannah with the legendary service of The Ritz-Carlton, this camp redefines the modern safari experience.

A New Chapter in Safari Luxury

The camp is composed of 20 lavish canvas-tented suites overlooking the Talek River, designed to immerse you in the natural world without sacrificing comfort. Each tented suite features hardwood floors, plush bedding, private decks with plunge pools, and panoramic views where wildlife roams just beyond your doorstep.

Sustainability is central to the property’s vision, with solar power, eco-conscious materials, and community-driven initiatives ensuring that every stay has a positive impact on the Masai Mara ecosystem and its people.

Immersive Safari Experiences







Guests can embark on twice-daily game drives led by expert rangers, who bring the Masai Mara’s landscapes and wildlife to life. From spotting the Big Five to witnessing the thundering herds of the Great Migration, every moment is curated for awe and wonder.

Beyond the drives, the camp offers walking safaris, cultural experiences with the Maasai community, and stargazing evenings around the fire pit, where stories meet constellations.

Culinary & Wellness Highlights

The Ritz-Carlton elevates safari dining with open-air feasts beneath the stars, menus inspired by local ingredients, and signature cocktails overlooking the savannah. Guests can also unwind at the intimate wellness tent, enjoying spa treatments that incorporate indigenous rituals and natural botanicals.
