Bateleur Camp is vintage luxury safari through-and-through, and nothing short of time travel can replicate the experience you’ll have here.
The style of the camp harkens back to the halcyon days of safari when well-heeled adventurers roamed the plains in search of big game with all the comforts of home carried by porters, from mahogany writing desks and beds to silver tea services. Intriguing antiques, artifacts and keepsakes mingle with cushy sofas and polished leather chairs. Shiny brass, leather trunks and old maps evoke vintage elegance, while bookshelves of bound tomes amuse and inform. Situated below the location where Out of Africa’s famous final scene was filmed, this romantic and totally private luxury camp reflects the ambiance of Kenyan safaris of the 1920s. The camp overlooks the plains of Kenya’s Maasai Mara and lies directly in the path of what is considered to be the greatest spectacle in the animal kingdom—the annual migration of wildebeest and zebra up from Serengeti National Park of Tanzania.
