Recreational Facilities

Balloon flights typically take off at 6.30am. Passengers arrive in time to watch the balloon inflation as the pilots torch the colored fabric to life. The flight is for one hour, each on different path and following the days prevailing winds.

A Balloon flight allows passengers to float over the world's most spectacular game reserve, and offers a magical bird's eye view of the annual wildebeest migration and the other wildlife the Mara is famous for.

On landing, the balloon crew set up a full champagne breakfast on the Mara plains. Each passenger then receives a certificate from their pilot as a special memoir of their flight. A game drive en route to the lodge or camp ends a special morning.

Nature Walks

Have a feel of the wilderness as you walk amid the animals with trained Masai tracker/guide/naturalists. The walk will give you an opportunity of appreciating the openness of the wild and learn about the existing flora and fauna.

Masai Cultural Visit

This will include a visit to a traditional Masai village or homestead. Here you will be taught about the Masai culture and way of life. A Masai Moran will explain how the Masai coexist with the natural environment. The visit will not end without a dance from the Moran's and women.

Other activities organized by the camp include:

Picnic breakfasts, bush lunches and bush dinners Organized safaris into the Masai Mara game reserve (game viewing) Evening entertainment (traditional dancing and story-telling) by Masai warriors Volunteer opportunities for clients who would like to give their services and skills to the community's social and economic projects (mixing volunteerism with travel)
