Tented Camps · Mara Naboisho Conservancy, Kenya
Saruni Leopard Hill Family tent
Overview
Some moments are best shared.
Perched in a prime position above the sweeping landscape of Mara Naboisho Conservancy, our Family Tent is designed for those who want to experience the wilderness together.Elevated on wooden platforms, the tent unfolds across two private wings, each with its own bedroom, bathroom, and verandah. Space to be together. Space to be apart. The rhythm of a family holiday, honoured.And when night falls, the real wonder begins. At the touch of a button, the ceiling opens and suddenly a view of the full breadth of the African sky. Fall asleep counting stars while the conservancy hums quietly below.Contemporary in design yet rooted in the textures and traditions of the land, this is a place where younger guests discover a world beyond the ordinary, and where families find themselves drawn a little closer by everything they witness together.

Activities
What you can do
Bush Dining
A bush dining experience is quite exciting whether it is by the river’s edge where the hippos are grunting or on the plains with unlimited views of the big game. Our staff carefully serve guests with freshly prepared gourmet food prepared by the executive chef using fresh local produce with international influences accompanied by fine wines. To make it an unforgettable African dining experience, a group of local Maasai men and women sing and dance providing background entertainment that blends with the sounds of the untamed bush.
Game Drives
Our game drives are usually conducted in the early mornings, late afternoon or at night since these are the coolest times of the day when most animals are more active. During the game drive, our knowledgeable Maasai guides will introduce you to life in the savanna and share their infinite knowledge about African wildlife.
Massage
If you prefer a bit more relaxation and pampering, then the peaceful and serene bush environment at Leopard Hill makes for a deeply memorable massage experience. We offer a range of massage options that are specially designed to relax, refresh and rejuvenate your body administered by a professional therapist in the privacy of your tented room or on your private deck with beautiful views over the conservancy.
Sunset Sundowner
Just as you wind up your afternoon game drive, your guide will set up for a sundowner drink. Enjoy a selection of drinks, cocktails and delicious biting usually served against the unforgettable backdrop of the African sunset. Most sundowner spots also offer amazing opportunities for a photographic session.
Walking Safari
Walk across the savannah with the Maasai who have been doing it for generations. Learn the Maasai's basic survival skills. Track and identify animal footprints and dung as you follow the path taken by elephants, wildebeest and lions. Listen to the secrets of the Savannah and let the gentle winds urge you forward. Experience the wilderness on foot and come close to nature as you walk the vast Masai Mara plains.
Yoga
Nothing beats the feeling of taking some time out for oneself and breathing in Africa’s pure air while stretching those muscles. Yoga is the perfect activity to add to a safari adventure. Yoga will be conducted as a self-practice, therefore, with no yoga teacher present. The yoga sessions will take place within the privacy of your tent terrace.
