What if there's a medical emergency on safari?

Camps coordinate help; serious cases are usually air-evacuated to Nairobi via AMREF Flying Doctors (+254 20 699 2299) — which is why medical-evacuation insurance is essential for a Mara trip. The nearest hospital is Narok County Referral Hospital in Narok town. Emergency line: 999/112.
