The finest of four sister properties in the Masai Mara, Governors’ Private Camp overlooks the Mara River and offers the traditional safari experience of days gone by, in peaceful, private surroundings.
Accommodation consists of eight spacious and luxurious tents (a mix of twins and doubles), all fitted out with handmade furniture and equipped with hot and cold running water shower, a basin and flush-toilet. Each tent is elevated on a wooden platform with an extended verandah which has a view of the river or dry creek with lots of animal activity, and has electric lighting and charging facilities.
The camp is well placed overlooking the Mara River, in a spot frequented by hippo, elephant and other wildlife, and the surrounding forest is home to many beautiful birds – from rare trogons and turacos to nesting hornbills.
The bar and dining tent overlook the Mara River; there is WiFi in the bar area. Meals are served on fine china and crystal, the food is delicious, and all drinks, with the exception of champagne, are included. Laundry is done daily at no extra cost.
Governors' Private Camp lies just 15 minutes drive from Musiara airstrip,
