Peal mara was excellent! super friendly staff, responsive, polite, helpful. The tent was luxurious, clean, comfortable, safe! There were people walking us back and forth in case wildlife appears in the way. Sunset and sunset views were also top. The people working there are always available to accommodate your every need. The whole place is built in respect to the surrounding nature. The safari driver, Sietoti, and Rachel, a trainee, were experienced and educated, and was able to identify every corner of Maasai Mara and provide rich information about nature and wildlife during our daily safari game drives. A truly amazing duo who made our trip unforgettable. They really took care of us. Also, the food was delicious, chef was excellent! I would definitely go back again!

The rooms are beautifully decorated, the staff who take you on Safari are fantastic. Dominic somehow managed to secure us the BEST position out of about 50 cars to view the Wildbeast migration crossing. It was amazing.

If you are looking for a place to stay, look no further than Talek Bush camp! Firstly, it’s a great location right next to Talek gate (a gate that’s pretty much in the middle of everything in the park, making it easy to get to anywhere in Masai Mara). The accommodation itself is right next to a river in a lovely natural setting where animals come by and you can absorb the nature. They also have people working there to escort you at night to make sure that you are safe (thank you Simon!) The space itself is great as well (we got a free upgrade to the tent which was very luxurious thank you <3). They do measures like hot water between certain hours and no electricity at night (1am-5am), which I think is great to reduce the environmental impact of tourism on the area. Food deserves a special mention - it was honestly the best food we had during our entire trip in Kenya, starting from the veggies, soups, the packed lunches/breakfast when you go on game drives. They also organise game drives and we had the best driver Solomon - big thank to him too! The staff are very welcoming and honestly I would look no further JUST BOOK!

The location is perfect, right next to the Talek gate. You have a view on the Masaai Mara from your tent/bungalow! We were in a tent with our family of 5, incl 3 kids. We LOVED the place. Highly recommendable. The staff is simply great, they take care of you from the start until the end. Clean, spacious and comfortable tent/bungalow. The pictures dont do justice to the place.

We had an excellent stay at the camp! Its location was perfect — only a quarter of an hour from the Sekenani Gate — making it convenient to visit the Masai Mara, where we had an unforgettable safari. We also visited a local village and a school and the camp was also a wonderful place to relax, with great food and a cosy campfire in the evenings. The people were incredibly friendly, which made both our teenage kids and us feel very welcome. We also arranged our jeep with guide/driver via this place (Kambu Campers), which we can absolutely recommend. Overall, a fantastic experience!”

It was a great location overseeing the valley. And the Maasai Mara park. I had an incredible dinner. The best goat of my life. The people were also super nice. We went for a Nature walk which was lovely. Even after having seen the Governors camp in the paek. It was so cool as we could WALK and not drive between the Zebras and Gnus.

The location was amazing. We were looking for a lodge with incredible views and we weren't disappointed! The attention and food were excellent. We enjoyed the pool and our time at the lodge and in the conservation. We really appreciated the intimacy of the environment with the limited number of rooms and overall setup.
