Little Governors Camp

We stayed at Little Governors for a week, which some people may think is too long but I’d have happily stayed for much longer. After a delay leaving Edinburgh, we were 24 hours late in arriving but it was absolutely worth it. Hillary greeted us on arrival, where we were also give a much needed welcome drink and our Governors Camp water bottle. It was straight to tent number 1 before heading off to meet our guide for the week as we ventured on our first afternoon game drive. We were with Koros for the week and couldn’t have asked for a better guide. We saw everything, including the black rhino and elusive serval cat. . He is so knowledgeable, patient, and great company. I will definitely be asking for him again when we go back. We had Duncan and Felix as our waiters for the week too who were both wonderful and very friendly. Nothing was too much for them. The food was incredible, catering well for both vegetarian and carnivores. I did ask for smaller portions towards the end of the week as I was struggling to eat everything. The choice and quality of the wine on offer was great, the rose wine in particular is delicious. The tent was very comfortable and well equipped. It was Valentine’s Day and my Birthday when we were there, both marked by lovely little gestures including flowers, love heart chocolates, and a cake for my 40th. We also had a massage, which was lovely even if the warthogs were having a noisy squabble nearby but it’s all part of the experience! You can safari on both sides of the river, which gives you plenty options and area for finding wildlife. I couldn’t really say which was better for sightings, they each have their benefits. Overall, our stay was superb. You’ll never go wrong staying at Little Governors, it was somewhere I’d been looking at for a long time before we eventually decided to book and I’m so glad we did. It was the holiday of a lifetime and one we’re looking forward to repeating in future.

Best staff in the world. Ken, George and all the team made us feel so special and at home. Not to mention our fabulous guide Tom! Lions, cheetah, all the birds we could dream of seeing. The hot air ballon safari was so amazing we did it twice! Thank you for a magical stay, we will be back!

We had the most memorable stay at this wonderful place. The location provides an opportunity to see wild animals up close from the veranda of the luxury tent. All the staff are friendly and helpful. Our guide Bernard was excellent, and clearly enjoyed showing us the wonderful animals of the Masai Mara. So many great memories. Highly recommended.

Little Governors’ Camp was fabulous! The staff, the food, the safari guides, the accommodations - all first rate! Solomon was an exceptionally knowledgeable guide. Would recommend LGC to anyone looking for a truly unique experience!!!

Little Governors is just marvelous!!!! The location is amazing, abundant wildlife & the staff are very friendly Having stayed in several other properties, I find Little Governors Camp to be the climax of our safari. All our adventures there were truly memorable and look forward to another opportunity

We stayed here for 2 nights at the end of June at the recommendation of our Go2Africa travel agent, who recommended this camp for a Masai Mara safari. We were really impressed by the main camp area and our tent, which was basic but comfortable with running hot water in the bathroom, comfortable bed, and in room WiFi. It gets chilly at night so the hot water bottles placed in the bed at night are such a nice touch. They provide complimentary laundry service which we took advantage of and they did a great job of getting our clothes clean and returning on time given we were only here 2 nights. The overall service was wonderful and the camp was so well organised, just the right size where the staff would remember your name…and the views from the camp are amazing. The location was idyllic and you are so well placed to go on exciting game drives. The food was consistently good and all the staff were so amazing and very friendly. Our guide Johnson was a very knowledgeable guide and always knew where to drive to for us to see amazing wildlife. The tea and biscuit in the morning was a nice wake up. I highly recommend a stay here if you really want to experience the wild.
