Hola somos Vale y Gonza de Argentina, estuvimos alojados en Septiembre 2022 y no hay palabras para describir lo bien que nos hicieron sentir en el hotel, sin dudas en todo momento nos sentimos como en nuestra casa y eso fue el fruto de la calidad humana de todo el personal del hotel. El equipo de la cocina es el mejor que vimos en todo el mundo, nuestros gustos son muy acotados y nos hicieron todos los días una comida distinta a elección nuestra, nos sentimos comiendo en nuestro propio País y los asistentes de cocina eran los mejores, siempre con excelente predisposición para todo, gracias Chef Shadrack, Josephate, Jando, Collins y Pauline. Las habitaciones las mantenían limpias y ordenadas durante todo el día, cada vez que veníamos se un safari encontrábamos las habitaciones impecables, gracias Nelson y Samuel. La seguridad del hotel entendiendo que estaba en medio de la sabana y sin muros era genial, nos sentimos super seguros todo el tiempo, nos acompañaban para entrar y salir de la habitación todo el tiempo, gracias John, Richard y Benjamin. Parte importante del viaje sin dudas fue el guía que tuvimos en los 12 safaris que hicimos, el gran Dennis. Siempre informado, atento, respetuoso, calidad humana, pero lo más importante es que hizo un esfuerzo sobre humano para que podamos ver el 100% de los animales que habitan en el parque Masai Mara, de hecho vimos mas de 20 especies como rinocerontes, leopardos, leonas, leónes, búfalos, elefantes, jirafas, guepardo, hienas, cocodrilos, hipopótamos, topi, cebras, impalas, gacelas, ñus, etc. También vimos migraciones de búfalos, cebras y ñus. Dennis hizo posible tras largos recorridos y esperas que podamos ver a los animales cazando y hasta una jirafa pariendo, gracias Dennis sin dudas sos el guía N°1. Por último y no menos importante queremos destacar al gerente del hotel Geoffrey, que les puedo decir de el, nos llevamos un amigo de Kenia sin dudas. Tuvimos un problema que no nos llegó el equipaje por culpa de la aerolínea y no teníamos nada, bueno ante semejante inconveniente nos encontramos con Geoffrey ni bien llegamos al hotel y nos soluciono todo, nos consiguió ropa, nos calmo, nos dijo que disfrutemos y que el se iba a ocupar de todo. Así fue, en 1 día nos trajo las valijas, las mando a buscar con un auto hasta el aeropuerto de Kenia, un genio, nos hizo sentir como en casa todo el tiempo. Tenemos tantas cosas lindas para contarles sobre este hotel y sus empleados que seria imposible poder escribirlo todo. La estadía, safaris, habitación, personal, comida, desayunos en safaris, sorpresas que preparaban todo el tiempo en el hotel y la gran despedida que nos realizaron con una torta decorada con frases hermosas en español. Gente en resumen, si quieren hacer un viaje soñado, un safari inolvidable y al mismo tiempo hacer una familia en Kenia, no lo duden, no busquen más, no se vuelvan locos, vayan al Hotel Mara Explorer Tented Camp que Geoffrey los va a guiar a un viaje de ensueños. Gracias q

Wir waren drei Tage im Camp und wurden von der Herzlichkeit mit der wir versorgt wurden überwältigt. Das gemütliche Zelt war geräumig und mit allem Komfort ausgestattet. Die außen Badewanne war ein Hammer. Beim baden waren die Flußpferde zu beobachten. Die Terrasse auf der wir kulinarisch verwöhnt wurden, lag mit Blick auf Hippos und Krokodile. Der Koch war ein richtiger Künstler. Seine Kreationen waren ein Hochgenuss. Das ganze Team hat uns jeden Wunsch von den Augen abgelesen. Und dann war da noch Paul, unser Safari Guide. Er hat uns die ganze Schönheit der Mara gezeigt. Wir haben alle Tiere außer Nashorn gesehen. Paul wusste immer wo er sie findet. Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit zusammen. Unser Fazit: Wir kommen wieder! Danke für alles

Hey....wir waren im August tatsächlich nur zufällig in diesem fantastischen Zeltcamp. Eigentlich hatten wir ein anderes Camp gebucht, da dieses aber überbucht war, wurden wir in das Explorer verlegt. Es war einfach der Hammer, angefangen vom gemütlichen Zelt(die Betten sind sehr bequem) über das großartige Essen bis hin zum lieben Personal.Auch die Durchführung unserer Safaris war Tip Top. Vielen Dank an alle Mitarbeiter für die fürsorgliche Betreuung. Spezieller Dank an dich lieber Lawrence, du haßt uns mit deiner charmanten Art immer zum lachen gebracht und dich sehr gut um uns gekümmert. Wir waren sehr gerne bei Euch zu Besuch ! Viele liebe Grüße in die Masai Mara Andreas und Nicole

Nous rentrons de 5 jours passés au Mara explorer, le plus riche de mes voyages! Merci tout d'abord à Geoffroy qui nous a accueilli au camp avec beaucoup de professionnalisme et tant de gentillesse, toujours prêt à nous trouver une solution. Merci à Collins, oh combien disponible et sympathique qui a assuré un service impeccable, toujours de bon conseil sur les plats tout aussi delicieux les uns que les autres! Je ne m'attendais pas à de si belles et savoureuses assiettes, des menus toujours renouvelés... chapeau aux chefs, nous nous sommes régalés! John et Wilfrid ont assuré notre sécurité au camp avec beaucoup de discrétion, toujours prévenants et attentifs, sans manquer d'humour. Je me suis toujours sentie en sécurité, pour cela merci aussi à eux deux. Un grand merci à tout le reste du staff qui entretient le camp, les tentes comme les jardins pour que nous nous y sentions si bien. Tout y est de bon goût, calme et confortable, tellement dépaysant!.... De magnifiques chambres donnant sur la rivière Talek où la nature offre de si jolies choses à observer (hyppos, oiseaux, éléphants, crocodiles...) Que dire de Michael, notre guide, si disponible, drôle et généreux! Nous avons fait des safaris magnifiques, excitants et émouvants. Une découverte merveilleuse de la réserve dont il connaît tous les secrets. Michael a eu le soucis de nous faire vivre des moments exceptionnels! Enfin, merci à tous de nous avoir permis ces rencontres magiques avec les Massaï d'une beauté et d'une générosité rares. Partager des danses et des chants avec eux restera à jamais gravé dans ma mémoire. Un séjour en tout point splendide et inoubliable!

I had a great time here. The service was great, and our waiter, Lawerence, had a great sense of humor. Mara explorer was a great place to go for game drives with family, and they had views overlooking the hippos in the river below. We had great food, bonfires, and saw so much during our game drives!

The staff is great. But, beware the hippo's in the river are extremely loud. Blowing and snorting all night. A deal breaker for me.

Une semaine de rêve dans ce magnifique camp, une équipe extraordinaire, un grand merci à Geoffrey pour son accueil, au chef qui nous a régalé toute la semaine, à Kenny Roger pour son sourire et sa gentillesse et un grand merci à Denys pour nous avoir montré toutes les merveilles du massai mara. Un camp intimiste où l on se sent chez soi !! Asante sana. Isabelle et Frédéric

a once in a lifetime trip! I’ve visited over 59 countries and the Mara Explorer Camp was one of the few times I’ve had my breath taken away. Being just INCHES away from Elephants and Lions to eating under the stars with the some of the finest foods. Well worth the price, far exceeded expectations, will 1000% book again

This location far exceeded my expectations. The tent was stunning and cozy, and every meal was a delight. I was grateful to personally thank the chef each day for his exceptional cuisine. All the tours and excursions were memorable. This camp is genuinely a once-in-a-lifetime destination. Understandably, my now fiancé chose to propose on our tent's patio, with hippos as our witnesses. Lawrence was a standout, offering attentive, professional, knowledgeable, and humorous service. We adored him, and he is a major reason we plan to return. Also, a big thanks to our driver, Dominic, who helped us spot zebras, a cheetah, and a leopard all within an hour. I wish I could rate this place higher. Although I've traveled extensively, this has quickly become my top destination.
