Elewana Sand River Camp is situated on the banks of the Sand River, a secluded and private corner of Kenya's Maasai Mara, offering spectacular views across the plains towards Tanzania. From your tent you will be able to enjoy at abundance of birdlife and wildlife. In season you will have the opportunity to witness one of the world's greatest natural spectacles - the Great Wildebeest Migration. Elewana Sand River Camp is located at the heart of the migration.
The camp has 16 tented rooms, including 1 family room. The rooms are divided into two separate but adjoining campsites, with each area possessing its own designated dining and public areas, thereby creating an increased sense of exclusivity and privacy. Each room is decorated to reflect the heyday of exclusive safaris, with sumptuous furnishings, reminiscent of the classic era of African adventures.

I am forever grateful for the efforts he made so that I could se…
Our Guide Alex made this the most special experience!!!!! That and arriving the day after the migration began was incomparable. Never could we have imagined the number of animals we saw.
