Our recent stay at the camp was absolutely magical! From the very start, Sandra was incredibly helpful and responsive when I messaged her. She made the booking process so smooth and ensured we had everything we need. The moment we arrived, we were greeted with an incredible dance by the team to celebrate our arrival We were there to celebrate my mom's birthday, and the team made it so special! On one of the nights, they surprised her with a beautiful cake and a mini party. Their attention to detail and genuine effort to make her day memorable meant the world to us. The people at the camp truly made our experience extraordinary. Joseph, the owner, was an incredible tour guide who shared his deep knowledge and passion for the area, making every adventure even more exciting. Patrick, Daniel, and the rest of the team went above and beyond to ensure we felt at home, and their kindness and warmth made our stay unforgettable. The food was out of this world! Every meal was a celebration of fresh, flavorful dishes that made dining one of the highlights of our stay. Each bite was prepared with so much care that it felt like a true feast every time. The rooms were beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable. Waking up to the sounds of nature was a dream come true. The thoughtful details, from the cozy beds to the special birthday decorations, made everything feel so personalized and luxurious. The camp itself was pristine and impeccably maintained, which gave us so much comfort and peace of mind. This camp didn’t just enhance our trip, it became the heart of our Maasai Mara adventure. The warmth, hospitality, and genuine care from the team made it an experience we’ll cherish forever. If you’re looking for a place that combines breathtaking surroundings, amazing people, and unforgettable moments, this is the perfect destination. It also helps that the camp is very close to the gate. Thank you to the entire team, for making our trip so special.

We were amazed by this extraordinary experience. We were welcomed with open arms by Naomi and Philiph, while the owner Magdy was still on a business trip. The check-in went smoothly and Naomi and Philiph were extremely hospitable and catering to our needs. It was emphasised that they wanted us to feel as comfortable as possible. The food prepared by Naomi was exquisite. We had dinner every evening of our stay and it was always fresh, plenty, varied, ... simply everything we needed. We are vegetarian and vegan, and this was also no problem at all. The breakfast was also lovely and easy to take away on a game drive. Magdy was extremely helpful in booking a game drive with the best driver imaginable. He also helped us find a driver to bring us to our next location (Amboseli, which was quite far). This drive was very reasonably priced and we felt very safe and comfortable with the driver Magdy arranged for us. Philiph also took us on a small promenade to see hippos nearby and this was also a very nice experience. In conclusion, this was by far our favourite place to stay in our two weeks itinerary in Kenya. We felt at home because of the wonderful people we met and we would love to visit again. This place as well as the people we met here have a special place in our heart. We wish them all the best and invite everyone to meet them as well! We hope to come back!

Loved this camp! The owner Mostafa is very warm and welcoming and is an extremely talented photographer. Check out his Instagram in the photo. The area is like staying in a jungle with a family of baboons on the river that you can watch in the evening with a cold beer. At night you hear the sounds of the animals all around you and you are only minutes away from Talek gate to start your early morning game drive. All staff are amazing! From lovely Masai guards who are making sure you safe and are more than happy to talk about their culture, to super helpful and kind restaurant and cleaners. Highly recommended!

I can’t overstate how incredible this place is. The majestic view truly immerses you in the essence of African wildlife and safari—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I’m surprised there aren’t more reviews for this gem. Perhaps previous guests forgot to leave one, but I felt compelled to share my thoughts, especially since my partner, a huge believer in ratings, had doubts about coming here. While reviews might not be as prevalent in Africa, let me assure you: this place is undoubtedly underrated. The beauty of the location is breathtaking, and the staff are exceptionally helpful and caring. We arrived late as this was a last-minute trip to Africa, connecting from a flight in Singapore. Unprepared and without dinner, we were amazed by the staff’s kindness—they cooked for us past 10 pm so we wouldn’t go to bed hungry. That level of service is rare and deeply appreciated. If you’re staying in one of the tents and feel uneasy walking to the main house, the staff are always ready to protect and escort you. Their attentiveness and concern for guests’ comfort are unmatched. Overall, we had an amazing time and would love to return with the rest of our family. The manager, the owner, and all the staff were superb. I have nothing negative to say—this place exceeded all expectations. Highly recommended!

The location is perfect, right next to the Talek gate. You have a view on the Masaai Mara from your tent/bungalow! We were in a tent with our family of 5, incl 3 kids. We LOVED the place. Highly recommendable. The staff is simply great, they take care of you from the start until the end. Clean, spacious and comfortable tent/bungalow. The pictures dont do justice to the place.

It was a great location overseeing the valley. And the Maasai Mara park. I had an incredible dinner. The best goat of my life. The people were also super nice. We went for a Nature walk which was lovely. Even after having seen the Governors camp in the paek. It was so cool as we could WALK and not drive between the Zebras and Gnus.

    Great location just outside Masai Mara by the Talek River, which make it easy to do game drives early in the morning when the animals are most active. Great game drives and also transfer from the airport can be arranged through the accomodation, very convenient. Good breakfast and nice packed lunch that can be eaten inside Masai Mara. Very nice and helpful owners and staff.

    The camp was very clean(the toilets too), the food was amazing, and the people working there were friendly and helpful. Magdy helped us with everything. He managed to find us partners for our game drives as we were on a budget. I think this is the best safari camp in the area. Value for money with perfect services and good people. I hope to come back again one day! Perfect stay next to the Mara.

    Excellent location, plenty of animals close by, right on the border with the park, but not park prices. Swimming pool was a nice surprise after a long safari day. One of the very few if not the only budget option to see the exceptional park. Public transportation from Nairobi with a change in Narok is also relatively easy.
