Governors’ Camp

Governors’ Camp is one of Kenya’s most renowned safari camps, established in 1972 on the site where Kenya’s colonial governors once camped. Located on the meandering banks of the Mara River beneath a canopy of riverine forest, the camp offers an authentic yet luxurious bush experience.

The 37 luxury tents are spacious and elegantly furnished, each with en-suite bathrooms and private verandas overlooking the river. Hippos and elephants frequently visit the camp, and leopards are regularly spotted in the surrounding forest.

The camp is famous for its exceptional game driving — it sits in one of the richest wildlife areas of the Mara and has exclusive access to private conservancy land. Balloon safaris, night drives, and walking safaris are available.
