38 luxury tents line the river bank with uninterrupted views over the Mara River, others over the sweeping plains. The camp today is still Africa's best. All have en-suite bathrooms with hot and cold water and flushing toilets.
Each morning a breakfast feast is prepared over blazing coals with mountains of bacon and eggs, fresh milk flown in daily, hot baked croissants, exotic fruits and freshly brewed Kenyan coffee.
