I hope the signs lead me back to you one day
Ishara—the signs. Everything about this place comes back to the signs, and how we are all part of a larger working system and that we can co–exist in a beautiful way.
I was lucky to be able to taste a bit of the Ishara experience. From the warm welcome from the friendly and accommodating staff, the very carefully curated menus, the freshly baked goodies, the absolutely beautiful views, the feeling and reality of being immersed in the Mara, the feeling of being close to the animals, the tents themselves that contain even more than you would expect from the experience, the outside bath, the comfortable game drives, the environment where you can be somewhere new but come wholly back to yourself (I could go on): an experience I’ll never forget. What I personally loved the most was the attention to detail. It gave me the feeling that it all matters – that Ishara cares about the environment it is in, its people, nature, that it takes its place in the Mara but with the utmost respect to it and trying to help you become aware of that too. It would be a dream to be able to come back one day. I was in awe during the entire stay (and it was not my first time in the Mara). Thank you, Ishara! I hope the signs lead me back to you one day.

No hesitation in recommending Ishara
I have been to many camps in my life in Kenya and this one outshines them all. The attention to detail, the atmosphere of the staff and management, coupled with excellent service and really good and healthy food, make this camp my all–time favourite. I have no hesitation in recommending Ishara to any of my discerning friends and family. The rooms are nothing short of spectacular and very comfortable.
The game drives are well thought out in comfortable and well–equipped vehicles. For photographers, this is the best camp. As an example of attention to detail, in the early morning it is cold in the Maasai Mara – each Ishara vehicle is equipped with ponchos and hot water bottles to ward of the cold! I wish I could have spent more time and will certainly return.

Luxurious camp with premium service
Amazing experience. Luxurious camp with premium service.
Very friendly, professional staff. Amazing food. Eco friendly installations… the experience in the Mara would never be the same out of ISHARA Camp.

Every detail completely blew us away
My recent stay at Ishara with my girlfriend was truly heavenly. Every detail completely blew us away. The safari rides were extremely informative and fascinating, the food was amazing, and the river suite was the definition of luxury.
The staff at Ishara is caring, attentive, and very friendly. They made the trip well worth a return. Eric, the on–site photographer, shone an eye–opening light on the world of wildlife photography for us amateur iPhone photographers. This is the place you want to stay if you’re visiting the Mara, trust me.

Sufficient excuses for a return visit
With five–star food, spectacular views, modern rooms with both an outdoor shower and a riverbank bathtub.
Ishara embodies the simplicity of perfection. We left the futuristic gym, swimming pool and waterfall suite untouched to ensure we had sufficient excuses for a return visit.

Breathtaking experience
You have successfully created an immaculate and breathtaking experience in the heart of nature. The attention to detail, love, care, and commitment to service at Ishara make this place a world class hospitality destination.
I can comfortably say this is one of the best hotels I have stayed at throughout my life. Thank you for sharing this gift with the world. I hope you never change because it’s perfect.

Warmth, care, and wisdom shared
As we get ready leave your home, our hearts are full (stomachs too!!). We are so appreciative of your incredible warmth, care, and wisdom shared with us these past 3 days. From the morning greetings and escorts to the breakfast al fresco — from firepit snacks to delicious dinners…
Every meal, every interaction was memorable. The setting is spectacular, but you all made this visit one we will cherish! We all thank you from the bottom of our hearts for welcoming and embracing us. We will miss you and truly hope to return again.

The first proposal at Ishara
We would love to thank all the staff for their amazing hospitality and for a dream experience. We couldn’t have been happier at Ishara and with how amazing each and every staff member was to us, making each night special.
We are so honoured to be the first proposal at Ishara and it was the most spectacular experience on the observation deck. We will definitely come back!
