Common Amenities
Situated just 10 minutes from the main reserve, Speke’s Camp provides a secluded retreat and an engaging safari adventure. Without the convenience of readily available electricity, the camp depends on an expansive solar system and backup generators. Despite its minimal impact on the environment, there’s always an abundance of energy available for gadgets, illumination, and photography equipment.

A spacious communal area provides an ideal spot to unwind when you’re not out discovering the wonders of the reserve. Mismatched sofas, Persian rugs, and traditional wooden furniture contribute to the camp’s unique character and charm, inviting exploration and discovery at every turn. A dedicated game vehicle is always ready to provide the ultimate viewing experiences – from early morning excursions to evening adventures, and all the moments in between.

Dining
Your time at Speke’s Camp is best spent outdoors – relish the breathtaking sunset over the Mara River or immerse yourself in the vast savannah while observing the wildlife. For exhilarating full-day excursions into the reserve, breakfast and lunch can be packed into the vehicles thanks to portable fridges.

At camp, breakfast is an exciting spread featuring a hearty full English and a variety of seasonal fruits. At night, a three-course meal served beneath the shimmering stars is always on the menu.
