Overview:  Once exclusively for Kenya’s colonial Governors this is one of the most famous camps in the country.  Everything is under canvas; all tents have en-suite bathrooms with hot and cold running water and flushing toilets.  There is a bar tent with deck overlooking the Mara River and dinning tent with views over the plains.  Governors Camp has just been awarded a Silver Eco Rating from Eco- Tourism Kenya due to their sustainable tourism practices.

Location:  Nestling in the forest along the winding banks of the Mara River, its waters teeming with bird-life, hippo and crocodile, in the heart of Kenya’s Masai Mara National Reserve.

Rooms:  Some of the 37 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.
