On Aug. 15, The Ritz-Carlton opened its first safari camp, marking a new chapter for luxury travel in East Africa. The Ritz-Carlton, Masai Mara Safari Camp lies in the heart of Kenya’s Masai Mara National Reserve, spanning 20 tented suites, including a presidential villa. All accommodations are set on raised platforms among native acacia trees, offering panoramic views of the riverine forest and savannah. The boundary between room and landscape are blurred, with private plunge pools, outdoor showers and canopy-level stargazing decks.

Young guests can play board games in Raha, a relaxed space, while aspiring photographers can up their skills with access to professional equipment, a photography studio and on-suite guidance from resident photographers.
