Mango Opinion
This is the most intimate and luxury option for the Governors family of camps. This camp is located in a great wildlife area near the natural land bridges to see the river crossings during the wildebeest migration. Recently updated, we hear it now has the style to match the price and we are excited to re-visit to confirm.
Il Moran is the camp for those who want that extra bit of luxury. They have kept Governors Il Moran Camp as small as possible, with added touches that make this the top of the range safari.
The designers have recreated the atmosphere of the original hunting camps. Hidden under ancient trees, deep in the forest, are just ten tents. They line the winding banks of the Mara River. You'll feel like a personal guest of the manager, who will look after all your needs.
Each spacious tent has a very private location and is furnished to a superior standard. Stunning beds are handmade from specially selected wood taken from ancient olive trees. Large en-suite bathrooms have flush toilets, a lovely big shower with piping-hot water, and a Victorian bath where you can soap the days dust away. Every tent has an extended veranda. Meals are served on the raised wooden decking of the main mess and dining tent which offers a birds eye view of the snorting hippos below. The main feature is a sunken fire pit which is lit in the evenings – the perfect spot to sit back with a cocktail of your choice.
