Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best way to get to Mara Kati Kati Tented Camp, and what should we expect upon arrival?

We always recommend flying into the nearest airstrip, usually Kogatende, which is a short drive from the camp. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted with warm Tanzanian hospitality and a refreshing drink – it's the perfect introduction to the relaxed yet luxurious atmosphere we love about Mara Kati Kati.

Beyond game drives, what unique experiences does Mara Kati Kati offer that truly set it apart?

While the game drives are phenomenal, we absolutely adore the hot air balloon safaris at dawn. Floating silently above the plains as the sun rises is an unforgettable spectacle. We also highly recommend the bush breakfasts; imagine enjoying a delicious meal surrounded by the sounds of the savanna – pure magic.

We're considering a luxury safari. How does Mara Kati Kati deliver on that promise, and what are the tented suites like?

Mara Kati Kati truly embodies luxury in the wild. The tented suites are surprisingly spacious and elegantly appointed, offering comfort without compromising the authentic safari feel. We found the en suite bathrooms and private verandas to be particularly well done, making it feel both luxurious and timeless.

What's the wildlife viewing like near Mara Kati Kati, especially during the Great Migration?

Being so close to the Mara River means you're perfectly positioned for the Great Migration, especially from July to October. We've witnessed incredible river crossings right from the camp's vicinity. Even outside of migration season, the resident wildlife is abundant and thrilling.

We're looking for a bit of relaxation too. Does Mara Kati Kati offer any spa services or other ways to unwind?

Yes, and we think it's a wonderful addition. They offer a small but effective spa service where you can enjoy a massage after a long day of game drives. It's a lovely way to soothe tired muscles while still immersed in the tranquil environment of the Serengeti.
