Our Narrative
Immerse Yourself in Elegance & Adventure
Located on the banks of the river from which it takes its name, Sand River Maasai Mara sits within the Maasai Mara National Reserve close to the Tanzanian border.
On a secluded and picturesque site, the camp replicates the heyday of exclusive permanent tented camps of the late 1920s. The interior fixtures and furnishings mirror this period perfectly, reminding guests of countless Hollywood films that paid homage to a classic era of African adventure.
