An Intimate Tented Camp in the Mara Triangle

In the Mara Triangle of the Masai Mara, reached by boat across the Mara River, Little Governors’ Camp is an intimate tented camp overlooking a marsh, with tented suites, guided game drives and Great Migration river crossings.

Wildlife at the water's edge

Little Governors’ Camp sits in the Mara Triangle, a section of the greater Masai Mara managed by the Mara Conservancy, reached by a short boat crossing over the Mara River and a walk into camp. Set along the edge of a thriving marsh that draws wildlife to the water, it is an intimate, low-density tented camp of classic tented suites with private decks and en-suite bathrooms, including a family option. Dining celebrates Kenyan produce and regional flavours, with a signature dinner under the stars and Maasai culture, and there is a pool with a lounge and a well-equipped gym.

The great draw is the wildlife, with morning and afternoon game drives across the Mara Triangle, front-row Great Migration river crossings in the peak season of August and September, birding among hundreds of species, hot-air balloon safaris and Maasai cultural and community experiences. Set in the wildlife-rich Mara Triangle, it suits migration-focused safari travellers, families, honeymooners and photographers who want an intimate, conservation-led camp at the heart of the action.
