Mara Nyika Camp by Great Plains Conservation

Welcome to Mara Nyika Camp

Explore the vast private and exclusive 20 000-hectare Naboisho Conservancy, immerse yourself in the great migration.

" Nyika” means “Large Plains or Great Plains,” and Mara Nyika is the perfect sister camp to Mara Plains in Kenya. It rings with the romance of the vast open plains of East Africa from a time when light canvas flapped in the light breeze across those plains as wildebeest and zebras call to each other and at twilight, “Simba,” the great lion’s roar across the Nyika.

Typical of the Maasai Mara’s ancient Nyika is the flat-topped Acacia kirkii trees. The Dereck Joubert designed guest suites take advantage of these umbrella thorn tree’s shade. While the camp is in a valley, actually straddling a small stream, the suites are set up high under the tree’s canopy to offer guests awe-inspiring views out over the bush.
