Jambo Mara is inside the reserve, eleven kilometres in from Sekenani — the Mara's main gate. It sits between two streams that are meaningful water sources for this part of the park, which means game moves through the immediate area rather than only out on the plains.
That water is the reason to choose it over otherwise similar mid-range lodges. Animals come to drink; you do not have to go and find them first thing.
Comfortable en-suite rooms in a mid-range lodge inside the reserve.
Sekenani side of the Mara, so migration herds are within reach July to October and resident predators hold the area year-round.
Mid-range pricing makes this a workable peak-season option when the premium camps have priced themselves out of reach.
