It was my first time in Africa and I encountered heavy rain. I actually only stayed in the hotel for one day and had to move to another camp. The hotel and restaurant were good, but I was really unhappy to encounter the flood. I don't know if the hotel fee included tips. When I left, the driver kept hinting that I should tip.

This is real Safari. It feels like living in a tent, comfortable, hygienic and safe. Every meal is fine dining carefully prepared. In addition to being professional, the service staff are also very attentive. Make you feel truly at home. I have been on safari in so many places, and this is the most unforgettable one. You need to stay at least three nights to enjoy the true Kenyan wilderness Safari experience.

First of all I want to begin by telling you about our exceptional guide. As soon as we landed he was there to pick us up and greet us with his warm smile and instantly became buddies with my 6 year old son. (This guy really was the defining tone for our trip - he welcomed us in and sent us off and it wasn’t easy to say goodbye) The whole family wants to thank Paul for the most heartwarming and captivating experience you gave us during our Safari drives. We were so so lucky to be with Paul, he has about 20 years of experience as a Safari guide and is an expert at what he’s doing. We all felt super safe the whole time, yet got the thrill of adventure and got in touch with nature 100% of the time as well. To Paul: Most importantly thank you for giving my son the most magical experience that he will never forget ❤️ We are recommending you to all our friends and family, because you were the biggest influence on how beautiful this trip was And as my son told you when saying goodbye: when you visit us in Egypt, Paul, we will be your guide! As for our stay at Mara Intrepid: Duncan gave us the most warm welcome at reception, and from this moment onwards everything was perfect. our fancy camper tent was the coolest thing ever - you are one with nature but still you have all the facilities you need - best of both worlds. The sound of the Talek river when you go to sleep is the best feeling ever. The morning wake up calls with coffee in bed (hot chocolate & cookies for my 6year old) was the perfect way to start getting ready for the mystical early morning safari drive. Each and every staff member was so charming, welcoming and 24/7 super friendly. Working early or late, these people don’t know how not to be all smiles. Chef Tom was my son’s buddy, always joking around with him. Joshua the waiter was the magician that knew what every one of us liked and when, and wouldn’t wait for us to ask whether it was during breakfast or lunch. The gift shop is lovely! Special, good quality finds for all ages! We also got massages right outside our tent by the river! Excellent We went on 2 sundowners after the 2nd safari drive of the day and had the best time. We also went on a bush breakfast and it was out of this world. We were there to celebrate my father in law’s 70th birthday, and the entire staff really made an impression at his birthday dinner, coming in together singing, made him a cake and made our night truly special! I can go on forever telling you about how exceptional our stay was We are all in awe of beautiful Kenya and the Kenyan people. We intend to come back as many times as possible. It is surely the most beautiful place we’ve ever visited. 20/10 kind of experience. ❤️

So much to say but let me start with the service. Everyone was so friendly and kind. I've been to many places around the world and this attention did not feel transactional. I want to mention a few people that were always there assisting or just talking to us, even though my appreciation goes out to everyone at Mara Intrepids Maasai Mara. They were all great. Thank you to Joab, our driver and guide. Very knowledgeable and good person. The experience of a lifetime!! Also, the staff Sheila,Pauline, Ruben. MAk and Nixon( the Maasai employees that were full of insights and very nice, thank you for our bead bracelets) Gregory, chef Lawrence , Daisy, bar tenders and porters. Please give them all a promotion 😁 ! The accommodations were perfect. No bugs anywhere ( I believe they spray) .Also the view outside your tent. Waking up to the Hippos sound at night or in the morning was otherworldly. Felt very safe!

An unbelievable stay at Mara Intrepids. The camp is beautiful, tents are cozy, staff is incredibly warm and welcoming, and attention to detail at meals, turn down service, and safaris was unmatched. The camp is situated perfectly for daily safaris and just behind the air *****, making the location perfect. There is also a beautiful artisan shop on site. Dominic and Alex were the best safari guides, Joshua was our fabulous waiter, and Reuben, Duncan, Evans, and David took amazing care of us. A true must stay!!

It was a unique experience staying in a glamping tent. The hippos in the river and the elephants that came to visit on afternoon were incredible. The food was excellent and plenty of choices. Mark had a different and informational program every night. My favorite program by Mark was the Maasi dancing. All the staff was extremely helpful. Highly recommend.

Mara Intepids was amazing and truly unique and beautiful. We (8)were there for my parents 50th from July 4-7. Everyone treated us fantastic and brought special qualities that far extended any expectations. It was extremely fortunate of us to be able to stay here. Sublime nature and wildlife with superbly knowledgeable guides and attentive and personable service. An incredible team with Daisy, Lucy, Pauline and Reuben. Also Raphael and Simon were perfect leading the safaris. As well as Chef Laurence and more! To everyone: Asante!!
