Vielen Dank an das ganze Team und besonders John Mark für das beste Essen auf unserer Reise und Francis für den Einblick der Mara! Zelte mitten im Busch und eine traumhafte Kulisse, viele schöne Tiere!! Wir waren dort sehr gern und sind dankbar für diese tolle Erfahrung.

We have just left Elephent Pepper Camp after the most amazing 4 nights ever. Everything about this trip was magical and that's all thanks to the camp. Guide - We had James as our guide for our stay and he was brilliant. He has been a guide at elephant pepper camp for 17 years! So he basically knows the mara like the back of his hand. If you wanted to see something he found it, if you wanted to get somewhere he got you there. He was so friendly, knowledgeable and funny and took such good care of us. 11/10. Camp Staff - The team in the camp were incredible. Moses the manager checked in with us regularly around meal times and always was so warm and interesting. He would take care of everything for you before you even asked or knew you needed it. We had Simon serving us our food and drinks every day and he couldn't be more polite and attentive and always seemed so happy to be there! Everyone else around the camp were just great the whole time. 11/10. Food - The meals prepared by John-Marc were amazing every single time. It truly felt like michelin star food and service. The chef would come through to speak to us each time to ask how the meals were going. It really amazed us how the quality could be so high in such a remote location. 11/10. Camp - The camp itself was beautifully laid out with great views or the surrounding area. Well sheltered amongst the elephant pepper trees. The furniture in the common area and bar were always spotless and clean. Very stylish with everything you might need nearby. The "tent" we stayed in was mind blowing. I say tent like that as I'd never expected to stay in a tent that had a lovely big double bed, reliable hot showers with good pressure, two separate sinks with running water and WIFI! Everything was great. 11/10. I've only commented on the basic things here but what really made Elephant Pepper Camp special was all the small things that were done so well. I can't begin to write about them all but I wouldn't want to ruin the magic too much either of getting to live it yourself either. The place was a dream come true.

Where to start, it was all so good!? We saw our first lions eating a hippo on the way to the camp after our pickup by Ringa from the air*****. A fantastic start! As the camp knew of Kath's mobility problems, we were placed in a tent closest to the communal area. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff to help Kath with steps etc. - the phrase of the stay was "pole, pole". (slowly, slowly). Steps were also provided to help her get into the jeep. We would advise anyone with mobility problems to go on safari, as long as you make everyone aware prior to arrival. Don't be put off. Can you believe we had 8 game drives in 3 days and saw many animals? Highlights: 4 prides of lions, some with cubs and/or with kills; leopards and one climbing a tree; cheetah; hyena den, with pups; bush breakfasts × 2 watching hippos and crocs; birth of a baby giraffe; bush walk; numerous zebra, antelope, elephants with young; sundowners and camp fires; Masai demos; superb food (but too much, at times!); making friends with other guests. Our driver, Perez, was excellent and very knowledgeable. He seemed to anticipate where the animals would be and we got to see some amazing sights. Staff to single out, as well as Perez - Dickson (tent steward), Andrew, Amos ( waiter), Moses (manager), JohnMark (chef) and his team ... in fact, everyone was so friendly and helpful. We cannot recommend Elewanna Elephant Pepper Camp highly enough. Just go there!! Graham & Kath Pickwell

Don’t hesitate to stay at Elephant Pepper Camp - it’s magical! The camp is run by Moses who is fantastic, kind, and caring. The food is some of the best we had during our trip - Jean Marc is a local Masai chef, locally trained and extremely talented. Bernadette, Amos, Robert, and Rongo were all part of an incredible team that made our stay memorable. The tents are beautifully designed, comfortable, tidy, private and luxurious. The camp is nestled in the trees which provide shade and the tents look out onto a beautiful plain where animals come and go. Robert, our butler was so kind and taught us many words in Swahili as well as fielding our questions about growing up and living in the Masai Mara region. Monkeys may pop onto your porch and peer into your tent in the morning and you might hear hippos grazing outside your tent at night! We felt fully immersed in nature, but totally safe with camp security monitoring the property at all hours and escorting us at night. We loved the fire in the morning with coffee, tea and biscuits around the fire before the sunrise. We also loved a surprise sundowner with archery and fire starting and meeting other camp guests. Our guide Rinka brought the perfect combination of expert local knowledge, kindness, warmth and humor. We saw incredible wildlife diversity up close and personal with Rinka! The cutest baby elephants, a leopard calling for her cub, lazy cheetahs, and mating lions just to name a few highlights. Plenty of giraffe, topi, eland, warthogs, zebra, antelope and bird diversity too! Masai Mara is breathtakingly beautiful. I’ll never forget the newborn giraffe and momma we saw on the way to the air*****! And when one of us got sick during our stay (not from the camp!), Moses arranged a doctor to visit and provide medication. Special meals were provided and the level of care was very sincere, thorough and helpful. We learned about the many ways that the camp supports the surrounding communities - prioritizing and deciding how funds are spent are collaboratively made, putting the communities needs first. We will never forget the wonderful time we had at Elephant Pepper Camp and would not hesitate to return!

If you’re looking for a truly personalized luxury Safari experience, don’t hesitate to stay here. We stayed at two other camps, but the density and quick and easy access of wildlife and the “Big Five” were incredible here. Our driver’s first question was, “What do you want to see?” We said “cats” and in matter of a few hours we saw lions, cheetahs, and leopards (all had cubs BTW), in addition to the usual suspects, zebras, giraffes, and of course, elephants, many of which were in proximity of our tent and huge back yard, which overlooked the vast plains. We heard their trumpets at night. If you happen to get Leperes as your driver, you’ve won the safari lottery. Off-roading is permitted, which other camps do not do! This guy finds a way to get safely front and center of the animal while respecting their territory and politely allowing access to other safari drivers and patrons who eventually show. You will not experience a parking lot of other safari cars as we witnessed in other camps. The “tents” are classically beautiful, incredibly private, clean, sanitary, comfortable, spacious, and the hot water bottles at turn down service are a plus. The FOOD WAS AMAZING and plentiful! No traveler tummy for us! Cocktail hour and tea by the campfire were fabulous. Moses, the GM, couldn’t have been more hospitable. He was intent on making sure everything exceeded our expectations. Folks here at home are amazed by our “National Geographic” photos, all taken with an iphone, but looking as if we had a bazooka camera which isn’t necessary here. EPC is quiet, beautiful, and romantic for couples. Families were present but we didn’t experience the cacophony of children and preferential treatment of families with children which we experienced at another camp. We sat privately most nights but also had the choice to sit with others we met in camp. No negatives to report. The shower water is clearly treated with a purification system including a water softener, so if you wash your hair and don’t like the result, just rinse with the bottled water they amply provide. As far as the cost/benefit ratio goes, we believe we got more than our money’s worth. Love Elewana camps much more than other camps we visited. If you can afford it, take the small planes when transferring to the Maasai Mara rather than taking the bumpy roads.

The tents are well placed with interior touch of class.Overlooking the plains of the Mara and the view is just splendid.The staff very friendly and food well prepared.The game drives are ok with open jeep and they provide warm covers . They usually prefer flying clients and byroad arrivals not very welcome. In case you have a guide with you from your destination he will not be allowed to stay there. It's pricey though.....

What a magical place! Beyond the amazing wildlife sightings of Masai Mara, the highlight of this wonderful place is definitely its people. They took such good care of our entire family, that it was hard to leave this place. Thank you to the entire team. Thank you to Moses and the "Moses dance" ritual, to wonderful Robert who was so caring throughout our stay, to John Mark who cooked amazing dishes, to Nganayio and his gift to our youngest daughter and to Sammy our Masai guide for the wonderful rides and for accommodating our schedule! It could not have been a better experience. EPC is truly a special place. See you again soon!
This was a true luxury safari tented camp experience, and nicer than it looks at first in the photos. Elephant Pepper camp was truly amazing. Highlights: the location, the food, the people, the "feeling." The location, in Mara North conservancy is great. We much preferred the less crowded conservancy to the national park and would generally recommend remaining in the private conservancy areas. The hotels location also overlooks a bit of an "elephant highway," so for much of the day you can just sit and watch the elephants wander back and forth right in front of you. It's pretty spectacular. The food: The food was also amazing, and one of the best surprises of the trip. I was expecting rather bland food on safari, but all of the Elewana camps were amazing. The food was healthy, nutritious, and above all delicious. John Mark also had "taste of Africa" meals that were my favorites. The people (and our guide): By the time we arrived, this was our last camp. We felt like over the previous 6 days we'd seen all of the animals we could see. Knowing this, our guide James went out of his way to show us some things that we hadn't seen. He spent a lot of time finding lions (my favorite), including lions having dinner (poor zebra, poor hippo), lion cubs playing, and hyenas waiting in the shadows for their turn at the lion food. He showed us our first cheetah (gorgeous), and a rather shocking display of crocodiles decimating zebras (a little gruesome for me, but my family was enraptured). The people at the camp were also amazing. Our waiter Robert was so kind. John Mark is a chef talent to be reckoned with. Everyone was incredible. The feeling: as I mentioned, this camp was the ultimate "tented safari camp experience." Very 1920s, but with a lot more respect for people and animals. The tents were cozy with lovely furniture. The showers were hot with surprisingly great water pressure. There were blankets for us to use, robes, toiletries--whatever you might need. Lastly (and important): Elewana and its partner/subsidiary Chelli and Peacock (the original owner of the camp), have a deep respect for conservation and the community. You feel that being here and are happy to be a part of it and hope to contribute towards their vision and goals.

Beautiful camp with excellent service and food! Amos our server was the best! And Sammy our guide provided us our “ best “ day on the 3 week Safari seeing an entire pride of lions at sunset on a mountaintop!
The perfect safari experience, nicely appointed tented rooms with all the amenities. I loved the meals, the tapas style lunches. All so fresh! Wonderful game drives! Highly recommend this camp. A special appreciation to all the staff for making the stay memorable.
