 Governors' Il Moran 

Safari splendour

A truly special safari experience in one of the Maasai Mara’s premier camps.

With a location so incredible it attracts the makers of wildlife documentaries and programmes including the BBC's Big Cat Diary and Planet Earth Live, Governors' Il Moran is the smallest and most luxurious of the three Governors’ tented camps that occupy a wildlife-rich corner of the Maasai Mara. So close to the action are you that, if you’re lucky, you’ll spot an elephant or giraffe wandering through camp, and hear the hippos at night.

Three extended 4x4 game drives with superb rangers are included each day, when you’ll venture out into the Maasai Mara National Reserve. You won’t have to travel far to see the Mara’s best wildlife, so can enjoy game drives at leisure, spotting wildlife from the off. Cooked breakfasts and lunch buffets are served under giant trees by the river, and waiter-served dinner is by candlelight in the dining tent. A beautiful new mess tent has been created at the edge of the Mara River with an open fire pit and large sofas to sink into while watching the wildlife below.

The Lodge Package here has extra inclusions, with complimentary selected wines, beers and soft drinks. As a small luxury camp, the service is attentive and personalised, and only children over 8 are permitted. There are just ten huge tents, each recently refurbished, with a hand-carved king-sized olive wood bed, twin basins, shower and roll-top bath. Electric lamps, charge points for cameras and mobile phones and colonial artefacts complete a top-of-the-range safari atmosphere.

Why we love Governors' Il Moran

  • As a small luxury camp, the service is attentive and personalised

  • Watch hippos wallowing in the river from your private veranda

  • Governors’ has been working with the local Maasai people for over 50 years, offering support with medical clinics, schools and job training schemes

Governors recognises that local people must benefit directly from tourism, resulting in a 50-year commitment to local communities delivering genuine social and conservation results. Over the years they have funded an eye clinic, a health centre, local schools and supports the Narok County Council by supplying equipment and personnel to help with maintenance of local roads and the airstrip. They have a zero waste policy and use recycled paper and cardboard to make briquettes to fuel the hot water systems and has a tree replanting scheme to replace those lost to natural causes (primarily destructive elephant grazing).

Children over the age of 8 are welcome.
