Africa’s wilderness at its best travel tips and stories. Vacations ideas, cruises, spa and resorts

Located in the remote north western area of the Masai Mara Reserve, Beyond Bateleur Camp is the best loved safari camp in Kenya. The Masai Mara National Reserve is part of a huge conservation area that is considered as one of the richest and most diverse wildlife areas in the world. This is an ideal for first time travelers and wildlife enthusiasts alike. Safaris in Kenya are truly a wondrous wilderness experience. The reserve is home to a vast number of resident wildlife, as well as part of the annual phenomenon of the Great Migration - hundreds of thousands of wildebeest, elephant, hippo, buffalo, giraffe and zebra from the Serengeti, Tanzania, to the Masai Mara. This annual phenomenon takes place in the Masai Mara from approximately June to October.

Set on the fringes of a riverine forest, overlooking the vast, game-filled plains of the Mara, this tented camp offers world-class style in the African bush. Bateleur Camp consists of 18 tents, 9 in each intimate camp with a shower and a private deck. Each is elegant and cleverly tucked away within the very heart of Kenya’s wilderness. Private butlers will serve delicious Pan-African cuisine in the dining area, brass, silver and leather interiors - Bateleur Camp is classic and luxuriously comfortable. Bush breakfasts, sundowners and candlelit dinners offer an unforgettable experience of the African bush. Leisure facilities include a lap pool, curio shop, game drives, night game drives, guided nature walks, Masai community visits and lectures and hot-air ballooning.
