Experience luxury befitting Kenya’s colonial governors when you stay at Governors’ Camp. Established in 1972 as a place for local leaders, it is still the accommodations’ standards that all others are measured by.

Highlights

  • Great value-for-money camp located in the Masai Mara National Reserve.
  • The tents are all en-suite, entirely canvased, and lowly lit, enhancing the safari feel with basic dark wooden furnishings.
  • There is an abundance of wildlife all year round, but during the months of July to October, the game is particularly heightened as the Great Migration passes through these plains and crosses the infamous Mara River.

You Should Know

  • Children of all ages are welcome at Governor's Camp.

The Detail

Named after the Maasai people who inhabit the area and the Mara River, which flows through this great reserve, the Masai Mara National Reserve is a land of breathtaking vistas over endless game-filled plains. Contiguous with Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park, it is known the world over for the awe-inspiring spectacle of the annual Great Migration over the golden savannahs. While the migration is spectacular, the Masai Mara offers a constant and unparalleled flow of wildlife throughout the year.

Governors’ Camp nestles in the forest along the winding banks of the Mara River, its waters teeming with birdlife, hippos, and crocodiles, in the heart of Kenya's Masai Mara National Reserve.

Some of the 37 tents line the riverbank, tucked into the forest to enjoy uninterrupted views over the Mara River. Others have views across the sweeping plains of the Masai Mara. Created in 1972, Governors’ Camp set new standards in luxury for a tented camp. Today, it remains one of Africa’s best.

Everything is under canvas. All tents feature en-suite bathrooms with hot and cold running water and flushing toilets. There is a bar tent with a deck overlooking the Mara River and a dining tent with views over the plains.

Price Includes

  • Local airstrip transfers, accommodation, meals, drinking water, 3 game-viewing excursions daily, and laundry.

Anja at Safari.com was a great partner to work with!
Working with Anja at Safari.com was great. She was able to work some magic and got us a few nights at the safari lodge we really wanted, Ngoma. Unfortunately, our flight from the USA to South Africa was canceled and we were rebooked a day later but Anja was great about making sure our lodge and the transports knew about the change in plans and made sure we got to our trip as soon as we could. She was a great partner to have and communicated quickly whenever we reached out. I would highly recommend using her when planning a trip to Africa!
