Zebra Plains Mara Camp
Zebra Plains Mara Camp is a luxury tented safari camp in the Maasai Mara, offering spacious accommodation, wildlife-rich surroundings, expert-guided safaris and authentic Maasai hospitality.
Classic Safari Living in the Maasai Mara Wake to sweeping Mara plains, relax beside the pool and experience Kenya's wildlife from a comfortable camp beneath Oldonyo Oloip Ridge.
Set below Oldonyo Oloip Ridge, Zebra Plains Mara Camp enjoys an elevated position overlooking the open plains of the Maasai Mara. The surrounding landscape is frequented by giraffes, zebras, impalas, topis, buffaloes and other plains game, while a waterhole in front of the camp can become particularly active during the dry season.
The camp combines the character of a traditional safari camp with comfortable modern facilities. Its accommodation is divided into Savannah-Facing and Hillside-Facing rooms, with en-suite bathrooms featuring hot and cold showers, twin basins, flushing toilets, study desks and private verandas furnished with safari chairs. The two family tented rooms are interconnected through a private lounge, making them especially suitable for families.
Guests can relax in indoor and outdoor lounges, beside the swimming pool, around the campfires or in the fully stocked bar. The camp is also particularly attractive at sunset, with open views across the Mara providing a beautiful setting for an evening drink or sundowner.
Zebra Plains is a good choice for travellers seeking a comfortable, authentic Mara camp rather than an ultra-luxury property. Its strongest selling points are its location, spacious accommodation, family-friendly setup, wildlife access, and warm safari-camp atmosphere. Recent guest reviews also highlight the quality of the food, staff, and location.
