Emboo River – An Exclusive Eco-Luxury Safari Experience in the Heart of Maasai Mara

Unparalleled Wilderness, Luxury, and Sustainability

Experience the perfect fusion of sustainability and luxury at Emboo River, an eco-lodge situated in a secluded river bend within the world-famous Maasai Mara National Reserve. Designed for discerning travelers who seek immersive wildlife encounters without compromising comfort, Emboo River offers floor-to-ceiling panoramic views of the river, allowing guests to witness hippos bathing and elephants quenching their thirst right from their private suites.

During the Great Migration, thousands of wildebeest and zebras thunder through the plains and cross the nearby river, placing guests at the heart of the action. Whether you’re marveling at the migration spectacle, setting off on a game drive, or unwinding amidst nature, Emboo River offers an extraordinary safari experience unlike any other.

A Pioneering Electric Safari Experience

Emboo River is the first lodge in the Maasai Mara to introduce Electric Safari Vehicles, revolutionizing the way game drives are conducted. These vehicles provide an entirely silent and emission-free safari, allowing guests to get incredibly close to the animals without the noise or fumes of traditional diesel vehicles. This enhances both the wildlife viewing experience and the protection of the fragile ecosystem.

Throughout the year, Maasai Mara teems with wildlife, from majestic lions and elusive leopards to massive elephant herds and rare rhinos. Emboo River’s expert guides ensure that every safari is an unforgettable adventure. The lodge itself is unfenced and set within a lush forest, meaning wildlife can be spotted even from the comfort of your private terrace.

Notably, Jonathan and Angela Scott chose Emboo River as their base while filming "Bella the Leopard" for BBC’s acclaimed Big Cat Diary. The iconic fig tree where Bella was frequently sighted stands tall at the very heart of the lodge.

Relax, Indulge, and Reconnect with Nature

Between exhilarating game drives, guests can savor gourmet meals prepared with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Whether you choose to dine in the lodge or enjoy a bush meal under the African sky, every culinary experience at Emboo River is a celebration of flavors.

Looking to unwind? Take a dip in Emboo River’s natural swimming pool, indulge in a revitalizing spa treatment, or simply soak in the tranquility from your private terrace. Complimentary Wi-Fi ensures you stay connected, while a variety of children’s activities make this an ideal retreat for families as well.

A Leader in Sustainable, Eco-Friendly Luxury

Emboo River is a true pioneer in sustainable tourism, ensuring that luxury coexists harmoniously with nature:
