Overview

This small and intimate tented camp is situated within a forested area of the Masai Mara and is considered one of the area's premier safari camps. Governor's Il Moran offers luxurious tents that are dotted along the Mara River and offer endless opportunities for excellent game viewing. This camp is an ideal safari retreat for honeymooners and romantics. Set out on early morning game drives to search for the Big 5 or perhaps witness the Great Migration - depending on the time of year you are visiting.

For a unique experience of this wilderness, take an early morning, hot-air balloon safari. Visits to the nearby Maasai village will give you the chance to learn more about their culture and ways of life, while a walking safari in the company of the resident naturalist will have you learning all about this intricate and magnificent environment.

Rooms

Superior Tent

The 10 exclusive tents are dotted along the river beneath the shade of the evergreen trees. The tents are particularly spacious and luxurious and offer a comfortable, private stay.

Each tent has a spacious bed that is beautifully constructed from fallen olive trees. In the en suite bathroom, you'll find double basins, a shower with hot and cold running water as well as a classic, Victorian bathtub.

Facilities

Between game-viewing activities, relax at the bar and dining tent which overlooks the Mara River as you sip a refreshing drink and watch as the wildlife come to the river to drink.

Dining

After returning from your morning game drive or hot-air balloon safari, you can look forward to a delicious hot and cold breakfast spread on the banks of the Mara River, naturally accompanied by freshly-brewed Kenyan coffee.Lunches are also served on the river banks and include delicious salads, meat dishes, and a variety of desserts. In the evening, you can either dine in the open dining tent by candlelight, or enjoy an alfresco meal outside.

If you feel like enjoying a particularly romantic evening, you can request for a bush dinner to be set up in one of the scenic spots around camp. Here you can tuck into the same delicious meals, but with a private waiter and without being disturbed by anything except the sounds of the wilderness around you.

Governors' Il Moran Camp
KW

Ken Williams

"Governors' Il Moran was in a different league! Great camp - wonderfully situated, food & tents. The hot air balloon trip was great plus amazing breakfast. Thousands of wildebeest but no crossing."
SY

Susan Yokoi

As far as Kenya and the Governors camp, again it was a great experience with quality accommodations and service. The only disappointment was the late arrival of the migration of which you have no control. I probably should have planned a two-day st ay in Tanzania to cover it all. Most, if not all the people we met at Il Moran had been or were going to other camps, and I think that is a very good plan to see different wildlife.
