383 Karen Blixen Camp in the Masai Mara offers an authentic ' yesteryear' experience for visitors wishing to gain that little extra from their safari. Set on the bank of the Mara River, the camp consists of 22 tents, each one providing luxury and comfort in harmony with nature. The location is spectacular, with the great Mara plains behind the camp and the impressive escarpment and Mara River in front. Throughout the day zebras, elephants, giraffes and other plain game come to drink from the river right across from the mess area where our ' resident' hippo pod dazzle all day long. WHYWE LIKE IT The location is out of this world! The camp is beautiful and uses only quality materials – no corners are cut and the attention to detail is outstanding. The eco- awareness is high with everything running on either solar or gas while all grey water is treated using the latest zero waste technology.
