The new Mara Toto Camp at Great Plains Conservation

Great Plains Conservation is pleased to announce, on 28th January, a second camp openned in the greater Masai Mara ecosystem, Mara Toto Camp.

Toto’ means baby in Swahili, and was often used as a term of endearment in reference to young safari staff in the days of early exploration. But today, in our context, it is simply meant out of respect to its sister camp, Mara Plains, which has developed a phenomenal reputation. We are certain Mara Toto will follow suit.
