Overview of Richard’s River Camp

Kenya, Masai Mara

The Masai Mara is Kenya's premier wildlife destination, renowned for its thriving animal populations and iconic savannah landscapes. The region plays host to the Great Migration, where wildebeest and zebra cross the plains from the Serengeti in their thunderous millions in search of fresh grazing and water sources.

Richard's River Camp is on the banks of the Njageteck River, a peaceful stream that cuts across a landscape dotted with acacia trees and lush green bush—creating a mythical backdrop for you to relish the quiet sanctuary of the wild, with massage treatments in open clearings and quiet drinks by the riverside.

As a big cat hotspot, the camp is known for its resident lion pride, which can be seen roaming along the rocky outcrop across the river, their calls echoing across the open grasslands.

Throughout your stay, you'll have access to serene wildlife viewing from within the camp and a variety of outdoor activities, including game drives and bush walks. Sundowner Rock, behind the camp, offers the perfect vantage point to witness the sun setting over the horizon as you sip on local wines and beers. Hot-air balloon safaris are ideal for adventurous travellers seeking aerial tours of the plains alive with wildlife.

Richard's River Camp is a great choice if you want a Masai Mara experience that's a little more private, a little more soulful. Between the surrounding Masai plains and those slow, golden sundowners on the hill behind camp, it's the kind of stay that sticks with you long after you've left.
