Governors Camp

From: £929

Located right in the heart of the prime game viewing area and directly on the route of The Great Wildebeest Migration, Governors Camp has been described as ’’ The prime wildlife real estate in the World’’. The camp has recently been refurbished with 36 stunning new permanent safari style tents, nestling in the forest along the winding banks of the Mara River, it’s waters teeming with hippo and crocodile or with views over the grassy plains.
Governors Camp is the home of the Big Cat Diary. The BBC Natural History Unit has filmed four Big Cat Diary Series from Governors Camp. In their most recent series, which was filmed in September 2004, almost all the filming was done within a 6 kilometre radius of Governors Camp

It is highly recommended for a 2 night stay to fully explore the Maasai Mara National Park
