Porini Lion Camp

Porini Lion Camp is located in the exclusive 20,000 acre Olare Orok Conservancy. This expansive conservancy, which borders the Masai Mara Game Reserve is home to an abundance of animals including the Big Cats for which the Mara is famous.

The Camp is situated along the Ntiakatiak River, a permanent river with hippo pools and an abundance of birdlife. With 10 classic bush tents the camp is exclusive and provides a real safari experience reminescent of the ’old safari hunting camps’. Each tent has en-suite bathrooms with flush toilets and safari showers. Food is excellent with fresh baked bread and high quality meals prepared by the camp Chef.
