Governors’ Camp is one of the most iconic safari camps in Africa, positioned on the lush banks of the Mara River inside the Masai Mara National Reserve. Established in 1972 as Kenya’s first permanent tented camp, it offers an unrivaled blend of heritage, wildlife immersion, and timeless comfort. The camp is unfenced and teeming with wildlife, making it a prime destination for nature lovers, photographers, and those seeking an authentic safari experience. Its prime location near the Mara River crossing makes it ideal for witnessing the Great Migration and the daily rhythm of predator and prey.
Governors’ Camp combines classic canvas luxury with attentive service and a strong conservation ethos. With views over the river and plains, guests enjoy close proximity to elephants, hippos, and other game right from their tents. The camp features spacious accommodations, gourmet dining under canvas, and a range of expertly guided safari experiences. Sustainability and community engagement are at the heart of its operations, making it not just a place to stay, but a safari legacy to be part of.
