Narok hosts county programmes, NGO trainings, corporate meetings and celebrations throughout the year. A little planning makes the difference between a stressful event and a smooth one.

1. Define the essentials

  • Purpose and format: board meeting, workshop, training or celebration?
  • Headcount: participants, facilitators and support staff.
  • Dates and timings: including arrival the evening before for out-of-town delegates.

2. Choose the right layout

Walabi Mara's meeting space can be arranged in boardroom and classroom set-ups (see our meetings page). Tell us the layout you prefer and we will advise on the best fit for your numbers.

3. Plan meals and breaks

Half-day sessions usually need a tea break; full days need lunch and two breaks. Delegates staying overnight can be booked on half or full board to keep things simple.

4. Book accommodation together

Out-of-town facilitators and participants appreciate staying where the event happens — no transfers, no late-night travel. Ask for a group room block when you request your quote.

5. Confirm the details in writing

  • Final numbers and dietary requirements
  • Arrival times and room allocations
  • Equipment needs
  • Invoicing details for your organisation

Request a tailored quote

Send your dates, numbers and format through the meetings inquiry form. It goes directly into the hotel's system with a follow-up task for the events team, so nothing is lost in an inbox.

Frequently asked questions

Can delegates stay at the hotel?

Yes — we can hold a block of rooms alongside your meeting booking, subject to availability.

Do you host celebrations?

Yes. Weddings, anniversaries and private parties are welcome; packages are tailored on request.
