Karen Blixen Safari Camp
Masai Mara
Rating: Mid Range Accommodation
Karen Blixen Camp is set on the bank of the Mara River with the impressive Oloololo Escarpment in the front and the Mara plains behind; the location is spectacular; throughout the day elephants,giraffes, zebras and impalas come for a drink while a large hippo pod rest lazily in the river. The Camp situated in the beautiful Mara NorthConservancy that forms the vital northwestern zone of the Masai Mara Ecosystem. The conservancy borders the Masai Mara National Reserve in the south of Kenya and is part of the Mara-Serengeti Ecosystem.
STYLE:Karen Blixen Camp offers an authentic ‘yesteryear’ experience for visitors wishing to gain that little extra from their safari. The Camp gives a feeling of the early 1920’s era with beautiful and comfortable furniture. Long gone are the days when staying in a tented camp meant roughing it. You will find that Karen Blixen Camp is a step back in time with the luxury of today.
ACCOMMODATION:The Camp compromise 22 luxurious en-suite canvas tents (4.6m x 8m),each set on a beautiful mahogany platform with a spacious veranda (5m x 13m) completed with cushion daybed from which one can enjoy an afternoon siesta, taking in the wonderful surroundings. All tents are placed along the rive. Our family unit consists of two tents with a shared veranda. Each tent has a private bathroom with WC, twin washbasins and an outdoor shower with view to the sky. Tents can be configured for double or twin occupancy. For families travelling with children a 3rd or a 4th bed can be added.
KAREN BLIXEN TREATS:The Camp resident masseuse offers a wide range of wellness treatments for those who wish to indulge in a relaxing massage.
RECOMMENDED LENGTH OF STAY:We recommend a stay for minimum 3 nights to ensure enough time to enjoy the beautiful wildlife.
