Sala’s Camp

Super stylish safari camp

Luxury camp on the Sand River

Location is everything at Sala’s Camp. Nestled in the Maasai Mara National Park, but in a very remote southern-central corner of it on the tranquil banks of the Sand River, Sala’s boasts the most private of safari experiences within the reserve’s borders. The camp works in close conjunction with various wildlife projects in the area, so you can be sure your visit is making a difference.

The camp features 11 tents including two family tents and two honeymoon tents. All feature private plunge pools and en-suite bathrooms with hot showers, running water and flushing loos.

Sala’s enjoys wonderful views across the northern Tanzanian corridor and Serengeti National Park, and it is one of the first camps in the Mara to witness the Great Migration. Your daily game drives are personalised to guests, depending on what you would most like to see, and the Mara River for the famed river crossings is only a 25-minute drive away.

The food is impossibly sophisticated for your surrounds, all in all holding true to the camp’s philosophy of combining tradition with elegance. Sala’s is also a wonderful camp for families. All children receive a welcome pack with games, paint sets and quizzes about the wildlife and the camp and kids can play in the shallow Sand River under the watchful eye of a Maasai askari.

The impact of your stay:

Your stay at Sala’s Camp covers Masai Mara Park conservation fees. Additionally, it contributes to the Mara Rhino Rangers and the Pangolin Project, supporting research and protection initiatives for these threatened species.

Through its Footprint Foundation, the camp collaborates with local schools, inviting children to shadow staff at the camp. This programme allows them to learn about conservation in their dialect. The dedicated Sala’s Camp guides invest their time in running this program even when the camp is closed.

While at the camp, you can actively engage in the supported conservation efforts by participating in research or visiting projects to witness their impact. Supported initiatives include the Mara Cheetah Project, the Mara Lion Project, and the Pangolin Project.
