Dining
Both breakfast and lunch at Governor's Camp are served on the shady riverbank with views across the Mara's plains. After your early morning game drive, you'll return to a breakfast buffet cooked over the coals and accompanied by hot croissants, exotic fruits, and freshly-brewed Kenyan coffee.
Lunch is also buffet-style, this time featuring roast meats, fresh salads and delicious desserts.
Dinner is served in the candlelit dining tent and offers a stylish, 4-course meal, with a grand selection of main courses. After dinner you can sip cocktails around a bonfire, and chat about your day's sightings.
Recreation
There are various activities on offer: game drives in open Landrovers, game walks or balloon flights over the wide plains of the Masai Mara.
Governors’ Camp properties combine the best locations in the Masai Mara with the best-designed vehicles and exceptionally highly trained and experienced guides to give our clients un-matched game-viewing and photographic opportunities in the world’s prime wildlife area.
Leave your vehicle behind and take a walking safari with one of the experienced and qualified naturalists for the true thrill of the bush. Down on the same level as the animals, you will experience the untamed beauty of the Mara. The walking safaris take place in a private concession area adjacent to the Masai Mara Game Reserve. The scenery here differs significantly from the Masai Mara. Picturesque acacia trees characterise the hilly landscape and you can enjoy walking through either in the morning or afternoon. The walk takes approx. 1.5 to 2 hours.
You will track game, unsure what waits round the next corner, giraffe, buffalo, hyena, zebra or even lion. You will catch the scents and sounds of the wild Africa and at the end of it all waits a sumptuous bush barbecue breakfast, complete with champagne. Your drive back to the camp again is a game drive through the Masai Mara. Afternoon walking safaris are finished with sundowner drinks and canapés.
Participants in a walking safari should be in good health and be reasonably fit and active. There is no path as such and some parts of the walk lead through hilly and rocky areas. Children under 10 years are, for safety reasons, not allowed to participate in walking safaris.
The adventure begins just before dawn. Departure is from a perfect natural launch site behind Little Governors’ Camp and flames from the hot air balloon burners light the darkness as the crews inflate their craft. The first, pink tongues of sunlight flicker across the skies and the hot air balloon fills, then rises.
