Governors' Ilmoran Camp is shaded by a forest, on the banks of the Mara River. This top-of-the-range tented camp has managed to maintain the atmosphere of an original hunting camp, but with extra touches of luxury and comfort. The decision of the owner to reduce the camp to only 10 tents reflects his passion for preserving this incredible section of the Mara.
Activities on offer including game drives in comfortable Land Rovers and game walks, or balloon flights over the plains followed by a champagne breakfast in the bush. The Masai Mara is famous for its exceptional abundance of wildlife all year round, but particularly round the months of July to October, which sees the annual migration of around 1.5 million wildebeest and zebra.
Back at the camp you can watch elephant, giraffe and other wildlife come down to the river to drink. Also, as the camp is unfenced, it is fairly common to fall asleep to the sound of hippo chomping grass outside your tent.

DiningYou start the day at Governors' Ilmoran Camp with a delicious buffet of fresh fruits, cereals and hot-baked breads, as well as traditional cooked breakfasts. Lunch is also buffet-style, and is served under giant trees overlooking the river.
In the evening an a la carte dinner is served by candlelight in the dining tent, under the stars, or on your private veranda.
You can also arrange a 'bush breakfast' or 'bush lunch'. Not only does this enable you to stay out on your game drive for longer, but enjoying a tasty meal surrounded by the sights and sounds of the African bush is a truly memorable experience.
Governors' Ilmoran Camp has 10 luxury safari tents hidden deep within the forest, with fantastic views over the Mara River.
Each secluded, spacious tent is stylishly furnished with handmade olive wood furniture. The en-suite bathrooms have lovely, big showers; double vanities and Victoria bathtubs where you can soap the day's dust away. On chilly evenings the staff put a hot water bottle in your bed, to keep away the cold.
Every tent also has an extended verandah where you can relax and look out over the river, or even enjoy a private dinner.
