Why Choose a Conservancy Safari?
Conservancies in the Masai Mara offer a more exclusive safari experience compared to the main national reserve.
✅ Low Vehicle Density – Unlike the Masai Mara National Reserve, conservancies limit the number of vehicles at sightings, ensuring a more intimate wildlife experience.
✅ Night Game Drives & Walking Safaris – Activities not allowed inside the main reserve, such as night drives and guided walking safaris, are available here.
✅ Big Cats & Unique Wildlife – Mara North and Naboisho are home to some of the largest lion populations in the Mara ecosystem, along with elephants, leopards, and cheetahs.
