Porini Giraffe Camp
The Mara Ripoi Conservancy's tiny, cosy Porini Giraffe Camp is located in a forested area of Camphor bush (African Wild Sage) and Yellow Bark Acacia beside the Ripole River. This unique 13,500-acre wildlife preserve is home to a huge variety of species, including big cats, and is made up of lovely hills, woodlands, and open plains. The reserve allows free passage of wildlife from the Reserve as well as through a wildlife corridor along the Ripole River to Ol Kinyei Conservancy. The conservancy connects to Siana conservancy and then straight to the Mara Reserve.
Porini Giraffe Camp comprises 6 guest tents and offers a personal and unique experience for a safari in the Maasai Mara, providing a great alternative to the large mass-market tourist lodges. The camp has a dining tent and separate comfortable lounge all located along the Ripole river. The camp provides guests with the opportunity to stay at a completely eco-friendly bush camp where there are no permanent structures and there is no impact on the ecosystem. This 13,500-acre Kenyan wildlife conservancy is on a tranche of land belonging to a Maasai community who leased it for the purposes of wildlife conservation. Mara Ripoi Conservancy is home to only 3 tiny camps (including Porini as a founding member) and no other tourist vehicles are allowed within the Conservancy, so our guests have thousands of acres in the conservancy to themselves.
