Mara River Post

Where Africa Roars to Life

Tucked along the rugged northern reaches of the Serengeti, just a breath away from the iconic Mara River, Mara River Post offers an unrivaled vantage point to one of nature’s greatest spectacles. This is a place of raw drama and striking serenity—where wildebeest leap into crocodile-filled waters, predators wait in silence, and every heartbeat feels synced with the untamed rhythm of the land.

At Mara River Post, you don’t just watch the wild—you live within it.


Immersed in the Wild, Elevated in Comfort

Designed for those who crave front-row access to the action without giving up the comforts of thoughtful luxury, Mara River Post is both rugged and refined:

  • Spacious tented suites with en-suite bathrooms, elegant furnishings, and panoramic views of the savannah and distant escarpments

  • Lounge and dining areas crafted for gathering, storytelling, and soaking in the vast silence between wildlife roars

  • An intimate camp atmosphere, with limited guest numbers to ensure a personalized, immersive experience

Uforgetable safari 5/5 We had been communicating on Whatsapp from my home country. They prepared various options at my request and were very responsive and kind. After arriving in Arusha, they picked us up at our hotel and left us at Kilimanjaro Airport as per our request. The safari was amazing! The lodges exceeded expectations, and the food there was also nice. The tour guide was so kind and fun, making the experience truly enjoyable. We saw all the Big Five and many other animals! It was an unforgettable experience!

Words cannot explain how amazing this experience is Lovely/amazing/once in a life time/crazy/incredible… words cannot justify the experience that we have had with this tour, a gentleman called felix is who we booked our safari with and he picked us up personally from the airport and took us to our first hotel for the night in arush he was lovely and very kid hearted and hospitable, our driver was also very nice and very educated and alert to make sure we didn’t miss out on any of the amazing animals… and we saw lots, antelope/zebras/wild beasts/lions/rhinos/elephants/giraffes just to name a few… the camp site looked amazing however we had booked tented lodges before hand and regretted it incredibly when we had seen the camp sites but non the less the tented camps were also amazing, the food was incredible both on the safari and in the lodges and it was nice to have picnics with the group, I would 10000% advise you to book with these guys as just a recommendation is not enough, I hope to be back in the near future and will be booking with these guys again :)

Amazing Day To Climbing Mountain Kilimanjaro My husband and I reserved a one-day hike to Mandara Hut on Kilimanjaro with our guide, Mr. Joel. He picked us up from the hotel at 6 am and returned us by 8 pm. Mr. Joel ensured our comfort throughout the day, attending to all our needs during the hike. We highly recommend him to anyone considering a Kilimanjaro trek.
