About the camp

About &Beyond Bateleur Camp.

Bateleur Camp stands in the Kichwa Tembo concession on the western edge of the Maasai Mara National Reserve, below the escarpment where the closing scene of Out of Africa was filmed. Its style recalls the safaris of the 1920s and 1930s.

Twice-daily game drives, night drives, bush walks and bush dinners are included, and children have their own WILDChild programme. Each camp has its own pool.

When to go

The camp through the year.

July to October

Usually the migration months on the Kenyan side, and the busiest time in the reserve.

April to June

The long rains. Some roads need four-wheel drive.

The rest of the year

Kenya Wildlife Service also names December to March as a high season. We help you choose the right months for what you hope to see.
