Rekero Camp

Rekero Camp is a charming, authentic seasonal safari camp situated inside the Masa Mara Game Reserve on the Talek River. The position is ideal to spot the teeming wildlife, such as wildebeest and zebra, as they migrate on their annual journey across crocodile-infested waters. The camp has been known to be surrounded by wildebeest and there are three regular river crossing points in the area.

Head out on game drives and walking safaris to spot the excellent year-round wildlife (the camp is closed from March to May during Kenya’s ‘long rains’ season), as well as the spectacular annual Migration. Species you can look forward to seeing include lion, cheetah, leopard, elephant, occasional rare black rhino, and hippo. Look out for the superb birdlife or visit the local Maasai communities to learn about local traditions and cultures.

Rekero has lovely communal areas, a safari shop selling tasteful items from local artisans and a dedicated Wi-Fi tent.
