Endless golden plains, big cats and the river crossings. Kenya's most famous reserve, and the heart of the great migration from July to October.
Below are 15 places to stay in Maasai Mara, grouped by type. Each one links to Google Maps so you can see exactly where it sits. Rates change with the season and the room, so tell us your dates and we will quote the real price.

Curious where everything sits? Open the map and explore the area before you choose.
Look at the lodges first, then ask about age rules, family rooms and a pool.
Choose a tented camp with a private deck. Ask us to add a bush dinner or a surprise.
Ask about interconnecting rooms or booking a whole camp. We can manage the sleeping plan for every age.
Bush and mid-range camps give the same wildlife for much less. Green-season rates are the lowest.
We suggest 3 – 4 nights. That is long enough to settle in and make the most of the wildlife without rushing.
July – October, for the migration. Green-season rates are lower, and the landscape is lusher.
Short flight or 5 – 6 hour drive from Nairobi. We arrange every transfer and flight for you.
