Located in a forest in the heart of the Masai Mara, Little Governors' is intimate in character. The luxury en-suite tents are tucked around a large water-hole clearing that teems with life. Beyond, lie the grasslands of the Masai Mara and the deep blue Olololo Ridge Escarpment. Arriving in Camp is an adventure, leaving your vehicle behind you cross the Mara River by boat and are escorted on foot through the forest to the camp. more » « less

Just returned from Kenya after a friends wedding at Little Governors camp. All staff were fantastic and combined to make a memorable stay. Our drivers Stanley and Jacob really knew their stuff and could spot a leopard from any distance! The jeeps used were new land rovers in A1 condition and fully kitted out with radios (drivers also had mobile... more

We've just returned from a 4 night stay at Little Governors Camp. This is the first time I have ever bothered to write a review after years of travel throughout the world. In spite of the grim situation currently facing the Kenyan tourist industry, the staff at Little Governors were, to a man, extraordinarily friendly and helpful. At less than... more

Little Governor's Camp is absolutely fantastic. We have just returned from a 3 night stay there as part of an organised tour, our group took over the whole camp which made it really special. We were lucky enough to stay at Little Governors instead of the main camp which was much more intimate, the tents were set around a massive... more

We were at Little Governor's as part of a custom tour. Our group had the entire camp. What a fantastic experience! The tents are very spacious and comfortably appointed. The location right adjacent to a large watering hole brings the best of Africa to the doorstep of your tent. Each night we were visited by hippos and elephants grazing nearby.... more

We stayed at LG for two nights, it certainly was the most enjoyable, fantastic experience of my life. The tents were fantastic, the bathroom was luxurious but the best part was at night when all you could hear was the hippos and the lions and the buffalos! it was so fantastic to be so close to nature aswell as being... more

Stayed at both Governors and Little Governors. Vehicles definitely not of the highest standard with poor radio equipment in event of emergency. Food was disitinctly average at both camps - 4 out of 10 at best as rated both by 2 teenagers and 2 adults. Thst being said, our guide/driver - Joash - was very keen and really cared about... more

We stayed in LG for four nights, August 9 through 12, 2007. On the last full day we set off to go to the Lookout Crossing but the truck broke down on the way, the accelerator cable broke after we stopped at the site with 4 cheetahs. Our driver Joash couldn’t get out of the truck to fix it because... more

We stayed in the little governers camp for a 3 night safari whilst on our honeymoon! It was amazing! The camp site is made up of about 11 spacious tents! They arent really tents - they have wooden floors & beams and a walk in power shower and private verandas! We over looked a water hole where hippos would come... more
