Little Governors’

Classic A deluxe lodge or tented camp, almost all with swimming pools, excellent food and service, large nicely appointed rooms or tents with comfortable beds and tasteful decor; most of the lodges have air-conditioning and the tents are usually fan-cooled.

Little Governors' is a luxury tented camp consisting of 17 tents with en suite facilities. All the tents are comfortable and tasteful and each has an en suite bathroom. In keeping with safari tradition lighting is by gas and kerosene lantern or candlelight. As dusk falls the flickering lights in the forest make the camp a uniquely peaceful place.

Built-in the northwest area of the Maasai Mara overlooking a marsh waterhole, this is where elephants come to feed. You reach the camp by crossing the Mara River by boat, walk a short distance escorted by armed guards through the forest and into camp. Group morning and afternoon game drives are offered. Dawn game drives are followed by breakfast in the camp. It is usual to do two to three game drives a day or if you wish to stay out all day the camp will provide lunch and drinks. Vehicles carry an average of four guests, small groups may be asked to share vehicles. Optional walks and balloon safaris are offered.
