The Mara lands are famous for the annual Wildebeest migration. This is an awesome sight in the true meaning of the word which, when coupled with the sound of thousands upon thousands of hooves pounding the earth, makes it an unforgettable spectacle.
The Mara is also the home to among others:
- Zebra
- Elephants
- Cheetahs
- Lions
- Leopards
- Hyena
- Jackal
- Buffalo
- Eland
- Topi
- Impala
- Gazelle

The Royal Mara Safari Lodge
Just eight large riverfront tented chalets built on raised mahogany platforms provide close encounters yet safety from the hippos, elephants and buffalos roaming through the Lodge at night in search of food and water.
Each chalet has been individually decorated with artistically handcrafted furniture and opens onto a large veranda overlooking the breath-taking river scenery.
Lap up the luxury of four-poster super king and double size beds, elegantly hand-carved solid wood furnishings and full en-suite bathrooms... sunbathe in the open veranda chaises longes, dine along the river frontage of the camp as hippos wallow in the nearby river, and experience elegant haute cuisine on your own unique wilderness safari.
