Tawi Lodge is more than just a hotel; it is a sanctuary of ecological preservation that will enrich your safari experience.
As you continue on your adventure, you will reach Speke’s Camp, a little-known jewel in the Masai Mara’s crown. Over the course of three nights, you will be immersed in the breathtaking scenery and abundant animals of the Mara. Amazing game drives, the chance to see the Great Migration (when it’s in season), and a personalised, all-inclusive experience await you at Speke’s Camp. Indulge in a three-night immersion into the Mara’s wildlife, landscapes, and culture for an experience you won’t soon forget.
