Our Assessment of Soroi Mara Bush Camp
Soroi Mara Bush Camp is worth considering if you want a comfortable reserve base with practical access and a traditional tented safari atmosphere.
The short airstrip transfer is useful for flying visitors, particularly families who want to keep the final journey manageable. The family tents also provide an option for guests who prefer to stay together rather than book separate accommodation.
For photographers, the camp’s facilities are an additional attraction, but the guiding and vehicle arrangement matter just as much. We recommend checking equipment availability and allowing enough nights to spend time at sightings.
Choose the camp for the complete combination of location, accommodation and safari arrangements. Proximity to wildlife areas does not guarantee a particular animal or river crossing.
Best For
- Families seeking tented accommodation inside the reserve.
- Couples who enjoy a riverside bush setting.
- Flying visitors who prefer a short airstrip transfer.
- Photographers wanting suitable guiding and equipment options.
- Guests planning several nights of reserve wildlife viewing.
Consider Another Property If
Night drives or extended walking safaris are central to your holiday. These require separately confirmed locations and permissions.
If particular leisure facilities are essential, tell us before booking so we can check the camp against your requirements.

Enjoy a morning game drive, followed by meals and time at camp. Head out again in the afternoon under your agreed programme.
Day 3: Plan Around Your Interests

Activities to Consider
Guided Game Drives
Game drives explore the reserve’s different wildlife habitats.
Morning and afternoon outings suit many guests, while longer drives can be planned with packed meals where appropriate. Your guide adapts the programme to conditions, interests and reserve rules.
Private vehicle use is particularly useful for families and photographers who want more flexibility.
Great Migration Viewing
Migrating herds are usually associated with the Kenyan Mara between July and October, although their movements vary with rainfall and grazing.
The Olare Orok River is distinct from the Mara River, where many well-known migration crossings occur. Your guide plans the route according to current herd movements and accessible viewing areas.
No camp, guide or itinerary can guarantee a crossing.
Birdwatching and Wildlife Photography
Riverine vegetation and open grasslands offer different subjects for observation and photography.
Tell us if birds or photography are priorities so we can consider guiding, vehicle space, time at sightings and your length of stay.
Hot-Air Balloon Safaris
An optional sunrise balloon flight provides an aerial perspective of the plains, usually followed by breakfast.
We confirm pickup arrangements, availability, age restrictions and operator conditions before booking.
Maasai Community Visits
A community visit offers an opportunity to learn from local hosts about traditions and everyday life.
We explain the arrangements and costs beforehand. Follow your hosts’ guidance and ask permission before photographing people.
Sundowners and Bush Dining
Ask about a sundowner, bush meal or special dining arrangement if you would like one included.
Availability depends on weather, permitted locations and the camp’s programme. Any additional cost is explained in your quotation.
Guided Walking Experiences
Walking experiences require confirmation of the specific location, permissions and guiding arrangements.
A reference to bush walks should not be interpreted as permission to walk freely inside the reserve. We check the duration, terrain and age restrictions for any requested outing.
Night Game Drives
Ordinary night game drives are not part of a main-reserve safari programme. If they are a priority, we can compare a suitable conservancy stay or check a separately permitted arrangement.
