The night of May 2, 2024, was one of horror for unsuspecting guests and staff of the most luxurious hotels in the Maasai Mara. After a day of enjoying the wild, none of them expected to be woken up late at night by the sound of rushing waters, infiltrating their tents that had lost power, leaving them in darkness.
After rescue efforts were successful, hotels now remain with the task of rebuilding and cleaning up the mess that the waters of Talek River left behind. Jackson Amutala, Business Development Director of PrideInn Hotels says that the damage left behind at the PrideInn Mara Camp is almost unquantifiable.
