Guests praise the luxurious, well-equipped rooms and quiet surroundings. They appreciate the bush breakfast and dinner, as well as the exceptional service and newly completed swimming pool.

First of all I want to begin by telling you about our exceptional guide. As soon as we landed he was there to pick us up and greet us with his warm smile and instantly became buddies with my 6 year old son. (This guy really was the defining tone for our trip - he welcomed us in and sent us off and it wasn’t easy to say goodbye) The whole family wants to thank Paul for the most heartwarming and captivating experience you gave us during our Safari drives. We were so so lucky to be with Paul, he has about 20 years of experience as a Safari guide and is an expert at what he’s doing. We all felt super safe the whole time, yet got the thrill of adventure and got in touch with nature 100% of the time as well. To Paul: Most importantly thank you for giving my son the most magical experience that he will never forget ❤️ We are recommending you to all our friends and family, because you were the biggest influence on how beautiful this trip was And as my son told you when saying goodbye: when you visit us in Egypt, Paul, we will be your guide! As for our stay at Mara Intrepid: Duncan gave us the most warm welcome at reception, and from this moment onwards everything was perfect. our fancy camper tent was the coolest thing ever - you are one with nature but still you have all the facilities you need - best of both worlds. The sound of the Talek river when you go to sleep is the best feeling ever. The morning wake up calls with coffee in bed (hot chocolate & cookies for my 6year old) was the perfect way to start getting ready for the mystical early morning safari drive. Each and every staff member was so charming, welcoming and 24/7 super friendly. Working early or late, these people don’t know how not to be all smiles. Chef Tom was my son’s buddy, always joking around with him. Joshua the waiter was the magician that knew what every one of us liked and when, and wouldn’t wait for us to ask whether it was during breakfast or lunch. The gift shop is lovely! Special, good quality finds for all ages! We also got massages right outside our tent by the river! Excellent We went on 2 sundowners after the 2nd safari drive of the day and had the best time. We also went on a bush breakfast and it was out of this world. We were there to celebrate my father in law’s 70th birthday, and the entire staff really made an impression at his birthday dinner, coming in together singing, made him a cake and made our night truly special! I can go on forever telling you about how exceptional our stay was We are all in awe of beautiful Kenya and the Kenyan people. We intend to come back as many times as possible. It is surely the most beautiful place we’ve ever visited. 20/10 kind of experience. ❤️

We cannot recommend Mara intrepids enough. We had a beautiful experience in large part due to our game drivers Joab and Mark who made the perfect pair who complemented each other. We were lucky to see such incredible moments and animals with them and form a family for 5 days. We packed our breakfasts everyday to do long drives and had bush breakfasts which really immersed ourselves in nature. Joab and Mark were so knowledgeable and passionate about all elements of nature. They made our trip an unforgettable adventure and we can’t wait to go back to see them! Everyone at reception, including Daisy and Cecilia, and our servers, including Vivian, were all so helpful and amazing. The grounds are beautiful - the infinity pool is really amazing and the location is perfect in the middle of the bush. Choose intrepids for a stay you won’t forget and request Joab and Mark!!!!
