The teams at our camps and conservancies in the Masai Mara region work closely with the Mara Predator Conservation Programme to support their work in protecting lions and cheetahs.

The Programme produces these useful information cards with images identifying the individual members of the prides in Ol Kinyei Conservancy, Naboisho Conservancy and Olare Motorogi Conservancy.

In most parks / conservancies you can normally guarantee that you will see the more common grazing animals such as buffalo, zebra, wildebeest, eland, giraffe, gazelles, impala and waterbuck. In addition lions, leopards and cheetahs are present in most parks, but are most easily seen in the Mara and the Mara Conservancies.

We offer a broad range of transport options. Road safaris can be based on special 6 seater safari minivans or 6 seater 4×4 vehicles. Both types have a pop-up roof or a roof hatch to allow for game-viewing and photography. Some camps (including Porini Safari Camps) operate their own specially-adapted open-sided 4×4 safari vehicles for airstrip transfers and game drives. All vehicles come with a professional and friendly driver-guide.
