As the name suggests, this camp is available for the private use of individual groups who want an exclusive taste of the Governors’ experience.
Enhancing and completing the Governors’ Camp Collection of properties in the Masai Mara, Private Camp sits on a picturesque bend of the Mara River, where a variety of animals come to drink, hippos laze in the shallows, and elephants bring their calves for a playful dip. The forest around the camp is home to many beautiful birds, from rare trogons and turacos to nesting hornbills.
Private Camp can be booked by small groups or families who want the exclusivity of a private safari camp. Backed by the vast resources of nearby Governors’ Camp and with all the assets of an individually tailored mobile set-up, this is the ultimate safari.
We cater for up to ten people in five tents, ensuring total peace and privacy. Each tent is positioned on wooden platforms with extended verandahs – designed to offer guests the traditional safari experience of times gone by. We have gone to great lengths to maintain the traditional safari atmosphere, and the comforts incorporated do not detract from this concept.
Personal attention is the hallmark of a stay here, and you will benefit from our very best guides and trackers whose knowledge of the Reserve is unsurpassed.
To book this camp, you must book and pay for at least three of the five tents at the double-occupancy adult rate for a minimum of two nights. Please contact us at [email protected] for availability.
