Governor's Bush Camp have aimed to create a different sort of camp, catering more for those that don't want the run-of-the-mill Mara experience. They've focused primarily on walking and night-drives which are not offered within the Mara Reserve itself, and so the experience will be altogether different from the other Governor's Camps.
The in-house professional guide, Patrick Reynolds who has run walking safaris in such wild spots as the Teva River, is one of the most experienced and knowledgeable guides and specialises in walking, which requires a great deal of skill and knowledge about animal behaviour. For those that are interested in knowing a bit more and seeing wildlife in different way, this is a great choice.

The Masai Mara Reserve constitutes a relatively small part of the whole Mara eco-system, which is in turn, a tiny week piece of the larger eco-system which includes the vast Serengeti. While best known for the great wildebeest migration, the Mara is an extraordinary wildlife destination. Scenically, it epitomises the Africa of childhood imaginings: the lone Acacia tree against the cobalt sky, rolling plains that positively heave with life, the sluggish curves of the Mara River choc-a-bloc with hippo and crocs and the odd red "shuka" of a Maasai herdsman who carry on their normal pace of life, largely oblivious of all the commotion around them.

Kenya is the most established safari country, and consequently you have to step a little off the conventional route to find real wilderness, but it’s certainly there. Kenya also has much going for it as a family destination, and also a good number of very individual safari camps and lodges with a personal approach that makes your experience very special. Kenya also has a particularly diverse ecology which ranges from snowy mountains to true desert, rolling grassy plains filled with wildlife to craggy scrub intersected with dry riverbeds, sparkling beaches and volcanic ranges.
