Owned by andBeyond, Bateleur Camp offers a classic and intimate safari experience in a private corner of the Maasai Mara, where Out of Africa's famous final scene was filmed. This romantic and exclusive camp reflects the colonial ambiance of Kenyan safaris of old, and is ideally situated for witnessing one of nature's most dramatic spectacles, the Great Migration.
The two adjoining camps, each featuring just 9 spacious tented suites, are set in lush riverine forest, offering timeless views across the game-filled plains. Epitomising classic elegance, the camps feature two infinity pools and a state-of-the-art exercise room as well as a coffee bar that transforms by night into a craft gin bar under the stars. View the passing game from your day bed on your private veranda, or even enjoy a 'star bath' with sky views from your own ensuite bathroom. Bush breakfasts, hot-air balloon safaris and candlelit dinners will add the finishing touches to an unforgettable experience of the African bush.
