A Land of Breathtaking Landscapes, Abundant Wildlife, and Rich Culture, Kenya Offers the Ultimate Luxury Kenya Safari Holidays.
Governors’ Camp Collection operates luxury safari camps across Kenya, focusing on two distinct regions: the Masai Mara National Reserve and the Great Rift Valley. Each region offers different wildlife densities, landscapes, and safari activities. The Masai Mara National Reserve is known for high concentrations of plains game and seasonal migrations. The Great Rift Valley is associated with lakes, escarpments, and birdlife. These locations allow travellers to select safari areas based on wildlife interests, travel style, and seasonality.
For bird lovers, Loldia House provides an unparalleled Kenya experience, with breathtaking views of Lake Naivasha. Kenya’s immense landscapes, welcoming people, and diverse wildlife make it a dream destination for travellers seeking luxury holidays in Kenya.
Governors’ Camp, Il Moran Camp and Loldia House each hold a Gold eco-rating from Eco-Tourism Kenya, a membership organization that champions responsible and sustainable tourism practices. The rating applies to each camp as a property and does not cover flights, transfers or the safari as a whole.
At our camps, reverse osmosis water filtration removes the need for plastic water bottles, and each guest receives a reusable metal bottle on arrival. Plastic straws have been replaced with paper or metal, and one-time-use plastic bathroom amenities have been replaced with products in metal dispensers. Waste is sorted into organic and inorganic items, and recyclable items are collected by recycling companies. Solar panels and solar water heaters are installed at Governors’ Camp and Il Moran Camp.
Kenya’s national parks and reserves are home to an extraordinary concentration of wildlife. From classic safari adventures in the Masai Mara to a relaxing retreat overlooking Lake Naivasha, our Kenya luxury safari lodges offer a journey that will leave a lasting impression.
Governors’ Camp Collection has worked with its community neighbours and local conservation organisations for over 50 years. It supports and/or funds projects with an applied conservation focus, meaning projects aimed at a known threat to wildlife or habitat. Projects listed on our Community & Conservation page include the Mara Elephant Project, the Mara Predator Conservation Programme, the Mara Raptor Project, the Pangolin Project, Protect Loita Forest, the Kenya Bird of Prey Trust and Soysambu Raptor Centre.
Governors’ Camp Collection operates in two distinct Kenyan safari regions:
Each region offers different landscapes, wildlife and activities, allowing travellers to select locations based on wildlife interests and activity type.
Safari camps operated by Governors’ Camp Collection are typically accessed via scheduled flights from Wilson Airport in Nairobi to regional airstrips serving the Masai Mara or Great Rift Valley locations. Transfers from airstrips to camps are arranged using established routes. Some Great Rift Valley locations may also be accessed by road from Nairobi.
Kenya offers safari opportunities year-round, with seasonal considerations influencing wildlife activity and environmental conditions. The July to October period in the Masai Mara aligns with the Great Wildebeest Migration and increased predator activity. The January to March period offers resident wildlife viewing with lower vegetation density in some regions. Seasonal rainfall patterns affect travel routes and wildlife movement, making timing an important factor for travellers planning safari itineraries.
Safaris operated by Governors’ Camp Collection in Kenya are suitable for wildlife enthusiasts, families, couples and groups. The availability of multiple regions allows safari planners to match travellers with locations that align with their wildlife interests, activity preferences and travel timing.
