Ngerende in the Wild, Riverview detail

Ngerende in the Wild is a classically styled wilderness camp that harkens back to the pioneering safaris of the 1920s. Designed with simplicity in mind, yet uncompromisingly comfortable and luxurious, Ngerende delivers an experience as close to nature as possible.

With the Big 5 residents all year round, the wildlife in the region is phenomenal. But it is during the migration season that the real drama begins when over a million wildebeest and zebra move through the area in search of water and fresh pasture. Undeterred by drought or crocodiles, blind instinct drives the herds past a multitude of predators and through perilous river crossings in their quest for survival.

Situated on the bank of the famous Mara River within the Masai Mara National Reserve, Ngerende in the Wild is only fifteen minutes from a key crossing point for the massed herds. Experience this incredible event from the intimate perspective that Ngerende in the Wild has to offer. With only two suites and two luxury tents, this intimate camp allows an unrivalled level of service and attention to detail.

Rooms

Suite

A blend of modern and traditional styles, the two en suite River View Luxury Tents are tastefully furnished with commanding views of the Mara River. Mosquito netting keeps insects out but allows cool breezes in while en suite facilities consist of a flush toilet and bucket shower with hot water on demand.

Your own personal Maasai butler attends to your every need while a dedicated guide and vehicle means you enjoy private game viewing.

Other room types

Each serviced by a dedicated butler, Ngerende's two canvas and wood Luxury Suites look out over the savannah where you can often see elephants and buffalo from the comfort of the suite's private verandah. The en suite rooms are beautifully appointed with stylish furniture and elegant finishing touches. An outdoor lap pool makes a welcome spot to cool off during the midday heat.

Each suite has its vehicle and experienced driver/guide for game-viewing activities.

Facilities

This mobile safari camp may be small and ecologically sensitive but the emphasis is firmly on luxurious comfort.

After thrilling encounters in the wild on game drives, return to the intimacy of the camp where nature is never far away. Relax on your private verandah, cocktail in hand as you watch the Mara River flow gently past. Attentive Maasai staff are on hand to make your stay as memorable as possible, your butler takes care of your every need.

Dining

Your butler awakes you with a welcome flask of tea or coffee and an early light breakfast before you set off into the wilds for your game drive.

A hearty meal awaits you back at camp or as a delightfully scenic picnic on the river, where a selection of delicious dishes is on offer. After a relaxing siesta, a sumptuous high tea is served, consisting of a mouthwatering variety of savoury and sweet delicacies.

Return to camp in the evening to find the dining table set out under the stars. Crisp linen and tableware gleam in the lamplight while delectable aromas waft from the kitchen as your chef prepares dinner. With a repertoire of international cuisine to choose from, you will find the gastronomic delights on offer irresistible.
