Rekero Camp
Masai Mara, Kenya
Timeless Safari Charm at Rekero Camp
Rekero Camp sits quietly along the Talek River, shaded by riverine forest and surrounded by the vast plains of Kenya’s Maasai Mara. This peaceful camp captures the spirit of classic safari adventure while offering exceptional comfort and warm, attentive service. The nine spacious tents are stylish yet understated, with elegant wooden furnishings, soft rugs, and en suite bathrooms featuring flushing loos and safari-style bucket showers. Each tent opens to a private veranda with panoramic views of the river, where wildlife often wanders past undisturbed.
Days begin with fresh coffee brought to your tent before heading out on expertly guided game drives. This part of the Mara is famous for extraordinary predator sightings, and between July and October, guests may witness dramatic river crossings during the Great Migration. Return to camp for a relaxed breakfast on the open-air deck or unwind in the lounge as the sounds of the bush echo all around.
Meals are shared communally in the mess tent or under the stars, creating a warm, social atmosphere. In the afternoons, enjoy a siesta with the rustle of trees and the distant call of birds, or take in the action from the comfort of camp — hippos, elephants, and even lions are frequent visitors to the nearby waters.
With its exceptional location, heartfelt hospitality, and dedication to conservation, Rekero is a true gem for those seeking an immersive, soul-stirring Mara experience.

Milford family
We wanted the opportunity to see as many wildlife parks as possible and the Classic Safari Company provided an action-packed itinerary that included six, with 11 tiger sightings and nine leopard. This was overlaid with an introduction to Jaisalmer, Jaipur and the 'real' India. Pench and Panna were the hidden gems of a really great trip, very well organised, seamless and enjoyable. As a solo traveller I felt incredibly safe at all times. I want to go back!
Mark Taylor
Exellent and wonderful, reaching way above expectations.
Elizabeth Mackintosh
Thank you for putting together the ancestral adventure of a lifetime. I cannot speak highly enough of the trip.
