Hotel · Great Rift Valley Escarpment, Maasai Mara, Kenya
Angama Mara sits on the edge of the Great Rift Valley escarpment — 500 metres above the Maasai Mara plains — in the exact location where Out of Africa's most iconic scene was filmed. The camp's two tented suites and 30 tents offer the most dramatic view in Kenya: the entire Mara spread below, the Rift Valley escarpment behind, and on clear days, the Tanzanian border visible in the distance. The camp's photography programme, led by professional photographers, is the finest in East Africa.
