Mara North Conservancy

Africa's best authentic tailor-made safaris

This community-driven conservancy offers exceptional wildlife density and fewer crowds compared to the main Masai Mara Reserve. It’s known as one of the best concessions for the abundance of animals, quintessential savannah landscapes, and its commitment to conservation. Projects here work to rehabilitate overgrazed land and natural habitats.

Must-Visit Areas in the Mara North Conservancy

Enjoy luxury, eco-conscious accommodation as your base for exploring this region, famous for its population of big cats:

Open Savannahs: Secluded Safari Experiences

This conservancy consists of classic East African savannah scenery, which is ideal for spotting predators and large herbivores. Game drives here to see these animals are far less crowded than those in the Masai Mara National Reserve, offering you front-row seats to fantastic sightings. This is perfect if you’re looking for a more secluded Kenya safari.

Luxury Eco-Lodges: Sustainable Safari Accommodation

The accommodations of the conservancy offer stunning bases from which to explore. Here, you’ll feel like you have your own slice of African wilderness. Enjoy your privacy as you look upon the gorgeous scenery from your private deck.

When’s the Best Time to Visit the Mara North Conservancy?

Plan your Kenya safari between June and October during the dry season. This will give you the opportunity to see the Great Migration as well as other wildlife sightings thanks to little or no rainfall.

Wildlife Found in the Mara North Conservancy

This conservancy is one of the best reserves for sightings of big cats, including lions, leopards, and cheetahs. You may also spot other predators such as hyenas and black-backed jackals. During game drives, you’ll see impalas, Thomson’s and Grant’s gazelles, zebras, wildebeests, buffaloes, elephants, and giraffes.

How to Get to the Mara North Conservancy

You can fly into the region via one of Mara North’s airstrips. Alternatively, the conservancy is a four- to five-hour drive from Nairobi via lodge transfer.
