Overlooking the endless game-filled plains of the Masai-Mara and shaded by dense forest canopy, this oasis of Hemingway-style tents nestles below the Oloololo Escarpment. Each luxurious tent affords sweeping views over the greatest grassland system on earth, still under the guardianship of the pastoral Ilkareskeshe Maasai tribe. Besides witnessing the ancient and often tragic spectacle of the migration, other marvels include black-maned lion, cheetah, giraffe, elephant, red-tailed monkeys and a host of antelope. Interpretive game-drives and bush-walks with resident guides and naturalists reveal the wonders of the Mara -- as do bush-breakfasts, visits to the Maasai cultural villages, sundowners on the escarpment or candlelit dinners beside the Mara River.
