Intro
Highlights
The area thrives with wildlife and birds, and your game drives commence immediately you leave the unfenced camp with barely any distance covered before reaching the prime wildlife viewing areas. The area itself is famous for leopards.
Wildlife
Wildebeest, topi, zebra and Thomson's gazelle migrate into and occupy the Mara reserve
All members of the "Big Five"(lion, leopard, African elephant, African buffalo, and Black Rhinoceros) are found in the Masai Mara. Hippos and Nile crocodiles are found in large groups in the Mara River, hyenas, cheetahs, jackals, and bat-eared foxes can also be found.
The Mara birds come in every size and colour including common but beautiful ones like the lilac breasted roller and plenty of large species like eagles, vultures and storks.

Accommodation
Hammerkop Migration Camp has 7 luxury en-suite canvas tents – including a family tent with private lounge –, all with memorable views of the Mara river and the prolific woodland and beaches on the opposite bank.
Each of the exclusive guest tents has a separate bathroom providing a hot water shower, hand wash basins and flushing toilet. The distance between each tent has been considered to improve their privacy and views over the Mara river and the distant Soit Oloololo escarpment.
