Rekero Camp is situated in Kenya’s Masai Mara National Reserve which is renowned for the Great Migration that occurs annually. The camp overlooks the Talek River migration crossing point.
What makes Rekero special is that it's the nearest camp to the Talek and Mara Rivers where all the action unfolds, with the dining area of the camp only a mere 150 meters from the Talek River.
Generally, during the months of July to November, the large wildebeest herds arrive from the Serengeti and gather on the banks of the river before plunging into the rivers, attempting to cross safely as crocodiles and other land predators await their opportunity to strike.
Traditional in design, this authentic African tented camp is equipped with the comforts needed to ensure an unforgettable safari experience. To minimize their impact on the environment, the camp runs completely on solar and generator power.
The camp boasts nine well-appointed canvas Tents that feature a double or twin beds, an en-suite bathroom with a traditional hot-water bucket shower and flushing toilet, writing desk, tea and coffee making facilities; and an enclosed verandah area complete with comfortable deck chairs, a day bed, and views of the Talek River's edge.
The camp also has two Family Tents that each have a double or twin beds, en-suite bathrooms, writing desks, tea and coffee making facilities; and an enclosed verandah area complete with comfortable deck chairs, a day bed, and views of the Talek River and the surrounding riverine forest.
The Messi tent includes a lounge area, dining area, and bar.
Activities offered at the camp include morning and afternoon game drives in closed safari vehicles with a rooftop hatch and led by professional Maasai guides, horse riding, hot air balloon safaris, local village visits, and bush picnics.
The area around Rekero Camp teems with wildlife throughout the year, so guests traveling outside of the migration season can still expect to see a high density of wildlife including the famous Big Five. The area around the camp is frequently visited by large herds of elephant and buffalo as well as a resident lion pride.
Rekero Camp is ideal for solo travelers, couples and families looking for an authentic tented safari experience and a prime location from which to witness the Great Migration.

7 day Vic Falls/ Kruger adventure!!!
I can’t say enough about Kim and how much she did for me and my daughter to plan her 7 day Safari to Victoria Falls and Kruger Park. For myself to be in the USA and my daughter doing a medical internship in Cape Town, South Africa and the time difference, Kim was amazing in every way. The time difference in itself was a challenge but Kim was so helpful and was very quick to respond to me and my daughter at crazy times to make her trip perfect! Kims communication and most importantly making sure my daughter was Safe traveling solo was superb! Everything was planned and she wanted for nothing. Her flights and transfers were perfect along with her accommodations! She loved all of her safaris and the people were all amazing to her! Thank you so much for making a Madison’s Safari memorable in every way !

Shann @ Safari.com is fantastic!
We worked with Shann Shaw and she was amazing! As someone who usually books my own travel I was a little bit skeptical at first... But safaris are not like a typical vacation and there are just SO many different options. Shann was incredibly patient in answering all of my questions, and eventually found the perfect safari lodge for me and my family. I really don't think I could have done it without her help. Highly recommend working with her!

Very Responsive and Patient w/ Our Needs!
Anja has been great in making our travel reservations! She is very quick and responsive (at all hours, I'm not sure when she sleeps)! We went back and forth on 39 emails. Yes, 39 emails for a couple of weeks. She made several different itineraries in ranging prices, types of accommodations, and locations. She was patient through the whole process and provided so much information. We finally decided on our perfect trip!

Aquilia Safari trip
Re: Safari from Cape Town to Aquilia. Fadiel was very helpful and organised our trip for us. We were picked up by Joe, who was our driver for the day. Joe is born and raised in Cape Town. He was prompt and was very friendly and informative. There was a good choice of food at Aquilia and had choices for my husband too who is Coeliac.
