Immerse yourself in the wild heart of Kenya on a three‑to‑five‑day safari adventure based at Talek Bush Camp. Set along the banks of the Talek River on the eastern edge of the legendary Maasai Mara, this camp offers the perfect blend of authentic bush life and comfortable rest. From dawn to dusk, you’ll journey deep into the Mara’s vast plains in search of lions, elephants, cheetahs, and more — returning each evening to the gentle lull of hippos and river wildlife near camp.
Over the course of your stay, you’ll experience the rhythms of the Mara through a variety of activities: morning and evening game drives, bush walks with expert guides, and optional excursions like hot-air balloon flights or Maasai village visits. This itinerary is tailored both for first-time safari goers and seasoned wildlife enthusiasts, giving you an immersive, unforgettable connection to Kenya’s wilderness.
About the Camp
Talek Bush Camp (website: talekbushcamp.com) is a mid‑range tented camp tucked into four acres of riverine wilderness, offering direct access to the Maasai Mara through its proximity to the Talek Gate. The camp features around 10–12 raised tents on wooden decks overlooking the river, each equipped with en‑suite safari‑style showers, mosquito nets, and private verandas. Guests can unwind at the communal lounge, dine under canvas, take a refreshing dip in the swimming pool, or browse the craft shop — all while enjoying the serenity of the Mara.
