“We couldn’t have loved the location, camp, dreamlike setting more.
Unlike some other camps, Roca, being small, felt truly authentic and warm. We felt instantly at home. You can tell the owners really care about the local environment, the community and conservation.
I can’t wait to return. A truly magical introduction to the Mara. We’d have stayed a week, if we could. An example of Kenyan hospitality at its finest.”
