Located at the Hippo Camp, this tent comes with sewn-in mosquito net, a bed with cotton sheet and duvet, bedside tables, solar powered lighting and private en-suite bathroom with hot running water 24hrs a day and flushing toilet.

Julia's River Camp offers accommodation in the heart of the Masai Mara Nature Reserve. Each tent looks onto the Talek River and has its own private verandah to enjoy the scenery.

Spent 9 nights here. The location is great as you're sleeping in the park. Obadiah, the manager, was great. He helped me with everything from game drives to getting a covid test needed to depart. Dennis, my driver/guide, works for Julia's and was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable & kept in contact with the other guides so we didn't miss a river crossing (or anything else). We saw leopard, plenty of lion, cheetah, hyena, elephants, two river crossings (5000 animals each crossing), cheetah kill, hippos, buffalo, wild dogs, crocs, etc. Truly exceptional and once in a lifetime experience. The meals were great. I had pancakes, fresh fruit, & whip cream for breakfast. Eggs, etc are available. Value for money 10/10.

This spacious tent features panoramic views of the Talek River and the park.

It has a private bathroom and includes four poster beds with mosquito nets and a seating area.

The Fig Tree Camp – Maasai Mara is located amidst the Maasai Mara National Park, on the banks of the Talek River. It features accommodation with private bathrooms, a swimming pool, and a restaurant.

Jambo, Hands down the trip of a life time! At the heart of the trip is the amazing Fig Tree Camp. The camp is surrounded by wildlife. Hippos and baboons can be seen from the safety of your riverside tent. Make sure to bring a set of ear plugs as the hippos are extremely loud during twilight hours. Hyena can also be heard at night time with their signature ‘whoo up’ sounds. The camp is situated on the Talek River which makes it situated in the heart of the habitat of local wildlife. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, food is amazing and the pool is handy in between game drives. The bar area is a fantastic place to talk to other visitors about your experiences while enjoying coffee or a bottle of Tusker or Two, be sure to try a cocktail made by the Maasai Maras number one mixologist Gideon and his assistants. Where to start with the game drives. This has to be hands down the most enjoyable experience I have ever had. A four day game drive gave me the opportunity to see the ‘Big Five’ and everything else the Maasai Mara had to offer. The highlight of the trip has to be watching a large male Lion steal a kill from a clan of Hyena at sunrise. I was also fortunate enough to see three week old Lion cubs and four separate Leopards. A lioness was also chased into the bush by a herd of elephants and unbeknown, a Black Rhino came hurtling out of the bush. My guide and guardian Johnathan was on point everyday and knew where to find the local wildlife. I also had the opportunity to visit a Maasai Village and experience the culture of the legendary Maasai Warriors. Do not hesitate to book your visit to the Maasai Mara and the Fig Tree Camp Asante❤️ Jay

Talek Bush Camp, Masai Mara has an open-air bath, garden and barbecue facilities in Talek. This property offers access to a balcony and free private parking. The accommodation provides meeting and banquet facilities, an African restaurant, as well as free WiFi.

What a dream stay at Talek Bush Camp, we simply couldn’t wish for anything better!!! This price quality/ratio is one of the best we’ve ever got. The food is made with love and it tastes simply amazing, they offer all meals, drinking water, and even packed lunch and breakfast for the game drives. The options for game drives are AMAZING, great rates and you get to sit alone in the car (this is rare!). The drivers are super experienced and bring you to the hidden spots before everyone else arrives. The staff is also super friendly and attentive, and they all make you feel at home. The swimming pool is also beautiful and relaxing after a long day.

Bordering the Masai Mara National Reserve, Basecamp Masai Mara offers eco-friendly, luxury camping in the heart of the savannah. The basecamp features panoramic views of the surroundings and local wildlife.

It was our second visit to Mara NP, but our first time sleeping within these grounds. Waking up with a river view and having zebras or hyenas or giraffes looking right across is mesmerising. The tent was clean, comfortable and spacious enough for three persons. Esmo was assigned to take care of us at meal times and he did a wonderful job. The meals were freshly prepared and very good. It was like a set menu and there was always a vegeterian option. The Masai also made us feel safe in the evening while escorting us.

Sitting on a shady raised platform facing the Talek river, each luxury tent covers approximately 26sqm and is fitted with a queen size bed or 2 twin beds. It is furnished in the classic style of the grand African safaris; with large four poster beds and reproduction furniture, offset by modern en-suite bathroom with a hot shower; flush toilets and all the necessary amenities.

Amazing staff, incredible hospitality and attention to detail. Sheilla as a waiter and Dennis as a driver were simply amazing. recommend you ask for a room overlooking the river. We were able to change and that’s why the trip was so great, first we had one in the bushes. now we were woken up by hippos in the morning 😅 Beautiful place and and the best safari I have experienced (been to Naivasha Amboaei and Serengeti before)

    Beautiful camp. Location is perfect, it takes only 10-20 minutes to reach Masai Mara Park. We got a tent with an amazing view! It was breathtaking. The bed was comfy with extra mosquito net. We also had a bathroom in the tent. The food was freshly made, mainly local dishes. They also can pack it with you if you want to go for a whole day safari.

    Beautiful property right on the Mara River. The luxury tent is very well appointed (the shower looking out on the river is a very nice touch). The food was consistently exceptional. Some of the best hotel food I've enjoyed in my several trips to the Mara. The boxed lunches are especially well done - without question the best box lunches I've had from any hotel/camp in the Mara. The staff are delightful, and were willing to accommodate our every need. It was a wonderful getaway and a perfect place to recharge.
