Luxury Holidays At Rekero Camp

Rekero Camp boasts a prime position overlooking the Talek River and close to the Mara River, surrounded by wilderness and enjoying sweeping views over the plains of the Maasai Mara. A warm welcome awaits from the friendly team, before you are whisked away to one of nine spacious tents spread along the river. This charming tented camp operates on solar and generator power and offers battery charging points in camp and in the safari vehicles so your cameras can be fully charged for your twice-daily safaris! It’s no wonder the area around Rekero attracts wildlife film crews on a regular basis, located in a prime wildlife hot spot and flaunting spectacular scenery. One of the river crossing points for the Great Migration is just 150 metres from the dining area, whilst the Mara River, which is also a hive of activity for crossings, is just a short drive away. Meals are served communally, a great chance to interact with other guests and relive your wildlife encounters of the day.

Property Highlights:

Safari

If your stay coincides with the annual migration of wildebeest and zebra (usually July to November) then you are in one of the best locations as, for years, the Great Migration has crossed the Talek River, close to the camp’s dining area. It’s a spectacular event as the wildebeest swim for their lives across the crocodile-infested rivers. Outside of the migration, there is of course still plenty to see on thrilling game drives, and it’s not uncommon to spot wildlife in camp. Elephant, lion, leopard, cheetah and buffalo can often be seen and, on rare occasions, serval and caracals. For something a little different, xperienced riders can enjoy the thrill of safari by horseback.

Culture & History

Learn more about the traditional Maasai way of life with a visit to a local village. These villages are home to some of the Rekero guides who will escort you to ensure that the experience is personal yet unobtrusive.

Luxury Family Holidays

Children over the age of five years are welcome at Rekero and there are two family tents that can sleep a family of up to five. Private vehicles need to be booked if there are children under the age of twelve years, but this will give you complete flexibility on safari times.
