The Governors’ Camps are ideally located in the heart of the Masai Mara to experience this amazing wildlife spectacle.
Kenya’s immense vistas, friendly people and diverse flora and fauna are appealing to all, and a safari holiday to Kenya will touch your soul forever. Kenya’s main attraction is its high concentration of spectacular wildlife that still roams free in the country’s many National Parks and Reserves. The Masai Mara, home to the ‘Big Five” and the spectacular wildebeest migration, it is widely regarded as Kenya’s top wildlife area.
Il Moran is small and intimate, with added touches that place this camp at the top of the safari accommodation range. This is the camp for those who want that extra bit of luxury.
Hidden under ancient trees deep in the forest, are just ten tents which line the winding banks of the Mara River. Hippos wallow in the river waters below, elephants wander through camp and the night time is punctuated by hyena whoops and lion calls. Each tent enjoys a private location from which to enjoy the beautiful and serene setting. The rooms are expansive and furnished to a superior standard. Beautiful recycled old wood furniture and muted natural tones are a natural extension of the environment around. Each stylish bathroom boasts a Victorian-style bath, while a large verandah at the front is designed for relaxing in comfort within the peaceful surroundings.
Meals are served on the raised wooden decking of the main mess and dining tent which offers a bird’s eye view of the snorting hippos below. The main feature is a sunken fire pit which is lit with hot coals in the evenings - the perfect spot to sit back with a cocktail of your choice. Tales shared around the campfire are not uncommon, but neither is escaping into your own intimate and romantic safari getaway.
This camp has been awarded a Silver Eco Rating by Eco-Tourism Kenya for our sustainable tourism practices in place.
