World Travel Awards: World's Leading Safari Lodge 2019 gives Mahali Mzuri a formal marker of recognition. Its wider reputation rests on its Masai Mara setting, thoughtful hospitality and a lodge rhythm where open plains, changing light and predator country give the stay its scale.
Voted #4 Best Resort in Central & Eastern Africa Condé Nast Traveller 2025 Readers' Choice Awards
Mahali Mzuri sits in the Masai Mara, Kenya in the Olare Motorogi Conservancy, within open grassland country known for predators, big skies and seasonal movement. The setting keeps the stay grounded in the surrounding landscape, with wildlife, light and distance shaping the sense of place before each day’s safari begins.
From the UK, the easiest route to the Masai Mara is to fly into Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, usually with either a direct flight from London or a one-stop connection via Europe or the Middle East.
Most travellers then overnight in Nairobi before transferring across to Wilson Airport, the city’s smaller domestic airport, for a light aircraft flight into the Mara, landing at the airstrip closest to their lodge or conservancy; these safari flights typically take around 45–60 minutes.
For a slower, more adventurous arrival, it is also possible to travel by road from Nairobi, though the journey is considerably longer and can be bumpy in places, so flying is usually the most seamless option for a luxury safari.
