Overview

Embark on an unforgettable 3–5 day safari adventure at Angama Mara, one of Kenya’s most iconic luxury safari experiences perched on the edge of the Oloololo Escarpment with sweeping views over the famed Maasai Mara plains. The lodge’s name—derived from the Swahili for “suspended in mid-air”—perfectly captures the ethereal feeling of being poised above one of Africa’s richest wildlife landscapes. Over the course of your stay, you’ll enjoy morning and afternoon game drives, expert guiding, and immersive cultural encounters, all set against dramatic horizons where lions roam, elephants stroll, and the Great Migration unfolds in the distance.

Whether you choose a shorter 3-day getaway or extend your safari to 5 days to savour the full array of activities, Angama Mara offers a blend of luxury, adventure, and authentic East African wilderness living. Expect tailor-made safari days that might include private game drives into the Mara Triangle, hot-air ballooning over endless savannahs at dawn, guided nature walks along the Rift Valley escarpment, and cultural visits with Maasai communities. Delicious cuisine, photographic workshops, and serene relaxation by the infinity pool with a view ensure your experience is as enriching as it is exhilarating.
