Tangulia Mara camp is a rustic and cozy tented bush camp perched on a leafy hill overlooking the Olotulo-Murt salt lick, by the Mara River. It is located on private land on the western boundary of the Mara Reserve.  The camp is near the Musiara Marsh and 16 km away from the Hippo pool.

The camp can be reached either by road or by air. The distance from Nairobi to Masai Mara is approximately 250 km. It takes around 5-6 hours by road while flying time takes about 45 minutes. Scheduled flights land at Musiara Airstrip which is a few minutes drive from the camp.

The camp is ideally located allowing easy access to game drive around the Musiara Marsh, the short grass plains, and Rhino Ridge, in the Reserve; or across the Mara River bridge into the Mara Triangle west of the river.

Tangulia has 7 en-suite tents and a family tent of 2 en-suite bedrooms with a shared sitting area.  Each tent features a double and a single bed, chairs and a wooden table, a drying rack for clothing, and a permanent en-suite bathroom with a shower, basin, and flush toilet. Both hot and cold water is piped into the tents from a storage tank, allowing for running showers.

The mess includes a living room and dining area and is a thatched and open-fronted building, overlooking the Olotulo Murt Salt Lick. Meals have both the African and international touch and guests can also enjoy their meals outdoors.

There is a large wooden dining table where communal dinners are served; a stone bar that’s built into one of the corners; and a few comfortable sofas that are covered by red Maasai Kikois.

The name Tangulia means “to lead” and is at the core of the camp’s existence. With over twenty-five years of guiding visitors to the Mara, the owners Jackson Looseyia and Dominic Nchoe are more than qualified to give guests a truly authentic insight into the Maasai culture, customs, beliefs, and knowledge of the fauna and flora here.
