We recently stayed at Drunken Elephant Mara and it turned out to be an absolutely wonderful choice. The property is beautifully located inside the Masai Mara National Reserve, giving you the chance to truly immerse yourself in nature—with wildlife frequently wandering close to the camp! The staff were incredibly warm and hospitable, always present around the camp to assist—whether it was guiding us to the restaurant or reception, or helping when animals were nearby. Their constant presence made us feel both safe and well cared for. Our tented room was spacious, luxurious, and extremely comfortable, equipped with all the modern amenities you’d expect from a high-end property, without compromising on the authentic safari experience. The meals were delicious and thoughtfully prepared, and the team even packed us meal boxes for our game drives. Speaking of which, the game drives arranged by the team were fantastic—well-coordinated and truly memorable. A small but heartwarming gesture was the team placing hot water bottles in our beds at night, which made the chilly Mara evenings extra cozy. A special shoutout to Faheem, the reservations manager, who helped us plan our trip from the start—answering every question with patience and attention. Huge thanks also to Abraham and the rest of the team for their hospitality and for making our stay so memorable. Highly recommend Drunken Elephant Mara for anyone looking for an unforgettable stay in the Masai Mara!

This was an experience that I will never forget. Jacib and his family are so welcoming and open so share their house and knowledge in a genuine way. The nature walk and massai village visit with Jacob were a highlight of my trip. I did nature walk and village with a safari organized by a tour operator the following days, and Jacob was way better. I regret not doing the safari with him as a guide. He is a naturalist and at the same time he knows and loves Masai culture so much, and is an open book for all the questions you migh have. The accommodation is very simple yet clean and comfortable. They were super accomodating with vegetatian diet. Higly recommend for sólo travelers who are adventureous souls and who put genuine local experience above comfort.
