Each room provides a peaceful place to rest after a full day of exploring the Masai Mara. Family rooms and interconnected rooms may also be available for guests travelling with children.

Room options may include:

Room rates depend on the travel season, room category, meal plan, and availability. Contact Tanzania Safari Experience for the latest rates and accommodation offers.

Dining and Lodge Facilities

Guests can enjoy a selection of local and international meals in the lodge restaurant. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are normally served as part of the guest’s accommodation plan, depending on the booking arrangement.

The lodge also has a swimming pool where guests can relax between safari activities. Other facilities may include a bar, lounge, gift shop, conference facilities, WiFi in selected areas, and outdoor spaces overlooking the Masai Mara landscape.

Wildlife and Safari Experiences

Masai Mara Sopa Lodge provides a good base for exploring the Masai Mara National Reserve. Morning and afternoon game drives offer opportunities to see lions, elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, cheetahs, zebras, wildebeest, and many other animals.

From approximately July to October, travellers may also have a chance to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration. Wildlife movements depend on rainfall and grazing conditions, so sightings cannot be guaranteed.

Optional activities may include a hot air balloon safari, guided nature experiences, Maasai cultural visits, and full day game drives with a picnic lunch.

A Good Choice for Families and Couples

The spacious rooms, swimming pool, gardens, and relaxed atmosphere make Masai Mara Sopa Lodge suitable for families, couples, honeymoon travellers, and small groups.

    Safari May 2026

    This company exceeded everything we’d hoped for. From the start, the tour operator had everything covered — a detailed itinerary laid out well in advance, quick responses to any questions, and a genuine attentiveness that made the whole thing feel effortless. The accommodation was seriously impressive. Not what I was expecting at all — comfortable, well-appointed, and luxurious. We also spent time right in the heart of the bush. A proper treat. The two people who really made this trip were our guide Mariki and photographer Agnes. Mariki’s knowledge of the bush and animal behaviour is something else — he always seemed to know exactly where to go, and his instincts paid off every single time. Agnes has a brilliant eye and captured shots we could never have got ourselves. As for the wildlife — we saw far more than we ever imagined we would. Elephants, lions, leopard, buffalo, giraffe, zebra, hippos — the lot. As a first safari, I couldn’t have asked for more. Would recommend without hesitation.

    Great Experience with Tanzania Safari Experience

    We had an amazing safari with Tanzania Safari Experience, and honestly the whole trip was put together really well by Laurent and his team. From our first message to the last day, they were easy to reach, quick to reply, and clear about everything. The plan made sense, the timing was smooth, and we didn’t have to stress about anything. Uncle J was a big part of what made it special. He knows the parks incredibly well and seems to notice things before anyone else. He’d position the vehicle perfectly for photos and often got us to sightings before the crowds built up. We were lucky to see [your highlights: migration / lions / cheetahs / elephants / a crossing], and every drive felt exciting and different. The vehicle was comfortable and in good shape, and everything ran on schedule. If you’re looking for a well-organized safari with a great guide, I’d definitely recommend Tanzania Safari Experience.

    An absolutely brilliant tour / travel company

    What can I say. How do you explain PERFECTION. I will try. From the outset of our trip Ramadhan and Laurent were excellent. We gave them our requirements and budget and they prepared a program that was outstanding. The whole safari went like clockwork. We were met and briefed by Ramadhan on our arrival and introduced to our driver and guide extraordinar Ngoi. We visited Tarangier, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and the Ngorongoro Crater and Zanzibar. Absolutely brilliant trip, we saw the most extraordinary game. All the accommodation arranged for us was magnificent, especially the tented camps, where we were visited by a lion and elephant, scary but exhilarating. So if you are looking for an unforgettable experience look no further than Laurent and Ramadhan from Tanzania Safari Experience. They truly put clients first and foremost and deliver on their promises. Cheers from a very satisfied Chris and Terri Harvey
