Mara Rianta Camp

Masai Mara, Kenya

Mara Rianta Camp

A medium-sized luxury lodge, Mara Rianta Camp is ideally situated in the northeast of the Maasai Mara Reserve, just outside the private Mara North conservancy, and directly overlooking the Mara River.

Mara Rianta Camp is situated in the northeast of the Maasai Mara Reserve, just outside the private Mara North conservancy. It features 20 tents, all of which overlook the Mara River. The game in this region of the Masai Mara is consistently good, with the camp's location alongside the Mara River ensuring that excellent game-viewing is never far away.

Part of the Neptune Hotels chain, Mara Rianta is a medium-size camp with a spacious restaurant, bar, spa, and a very nice pool overlooking the Mara River. Despite its size and generous facilities, Mara Rianta still retains much of the charm and character of a classic East African bush camp. The main guest areas and terrace are raised on wooden decking and feature dark wood furnishings and canvas ceilings supported by chunky wooden beams. Guests are housed in tented rooms on raised decks, neatly spaced out along the banks of the Mara River.

Mara Rianta is booked on an all-inclusive basis - activities include 2 daily game drives in the Mara North Conversancy. The camp is located within easy reach of the Mara North airstrip, and so is suitable for quick fly-in visits to Masai Mara, and is often combined with time on the coast.
