8 Day Mara On Horseback

Guided by a professional riding & safari guide, discover the Masai Mara on horseback; galloping amongst the wildebeest and zebra herds, returning to existing as a human in harmony with the environment. Riding between 4-7 hours a day, explore the private conservancies of the Masai Mara, experiencing the abundance of wildlife up close on the back of well-trained, evenly-tempered safari horses.

Spend evenings around the campfire in an exclusive private mobile camp set up in picturesque locations in the Masai Mara.

Day 2 to 7 - Mobile Tented Camp

Positioned in the most beautiful areas, usually under a canopy of trees
or overlooking a stream, a private mobile tented camp is home to the
duration of the horse riding safari.

In traditional safari camping style, each tent is furnished with a comfortable bed complete with Egyptian cotton sheets and warm feather duvet, bedside tables and verandah furniture. A safari bucket shower and toilet are housed in a separate safari bathroom behind each tent.

Delicious meals are prepared over the open forest by the camp chefs and served by a team of waiters in the mess tent, whether it be candlelit dinners, ‘full-monty breakfasts’ or alfresco lunches.

The landscapes deepen in colour, the pace eases, and familiar places begin to feel more spacious, from temple courtyards and hillside trails to palm-fringed beaches.
