Governors Camp

About Governors Camp

Governors Camp in Masai Mara possibly occupies the best wildlife viewing location in the Masai Mara Reserve, nestled in the riverine forest along the winding banks of the Mara River, its waters teeming with bird-life, hippos, and crocodiles. It is perfect for couples, families, and friends wanting to experience the best of what a safari in the Masai Mara has to offer.

The entire camp is under canvas with all of the comforts of a luxury hotel. Some of the 25 tents line the riverbank, tucked into the forest they enjoy uninterrupted views over the Mara River, others have views across the sweeping plains of the Masai Mara.

The tents are big, and bright and allow in lots of natural light. All tents are classic safari style each with en-suite bathrooms and a private verandah.  There is a bar tent with a deck overlooking the Mara River and a dining tent with amazing views over the plains.
