Photography Made Easy at Marriott Mara

It’s something you rarely see or experience anywhere on the planet — a resort that will loan you a sophisticated Canon EOS camera with a telescopic 100-500 mm lens, free of charge for the length of your stay. And a resident photographer who will show you how to use it.
