This was the BEST VALUE out there. LOVED the camp, location, beds, food etc but the staff was EXCELLENT. Sam at the front desk, Stella who served us... Mary... Everyone was outstanding and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. We even got to see a baby hippo born just outside our cabin. It was 4 hours old. The game drives amazing. I really have nothing bad to say. GREAT Value for the money.

We should have stayed longer.

Jambo, Hands down the trip of a life time! At the heart of the trip is the amazing Fig Tree Camp. The camp is surrounded by wildlife. Hippos and baboons can be seen from the safety of your riverside tent. Make sure to bring a set of ear plugs as the hippos are extremely loud during twilight hours. Hyena can also be heard at night time with their signature ‘whoo up’ sounds. The camp is situated on the Talek River which makes it situated in the heart of the habitat of local wildlife. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, food is amazing and the pool is handy in between game drives. The bar area is a fantastic place to talk to other visitors about your experiences while enjoying coffee or a bottle of Tusker or Two, be sure to try a cocktail made by the Maasai Maras number one mixologist Gideon and his assistants. Where to start with the game drives. This has to be hands down the most enjoyable experience I have ever had. A four day game drive gave me the opportunity to see the ‘Big Five’ and everything else the Maasai Mara had to offer. The highlight of the trip has to be watching a large male Lion steal a kill from a clan of Hyena at sunrise. I was also fortunate enough to see three week old Lion cubs and four separate Leopards. A lioness was also chased into the bush by a herd of elephants and unbeknown, a Black Rhino came hurtling out of the bush. My guide and guardian Johnathan was on point everyday and knew where to find the local wildlife. I also had the opportunity to visit a Maasai Village and experience the culture of the legendary Maasai Warriors. Do not hesitate to book your visit to the Maasai Mara and the Fig Tree Camp Asante❤️ Jay

it was a very remarkable stay! this hotel located at the heart of NP which means you’ll be able to go for a game drive very easily and freaquently. the staff were super friendly, we felt like we were at home, specially Sam the reception guy, he was very kind. the rooms are relatively comfortable and equipped, fortunately the manager upgraded our room to a tent with river view, we had a view of hippos laying down just in front of our tent which was fascinating! and if you come to this camp, I highly recommend to attend a Balloon flight, it worth every penny!

It’s beautiful. The pictures don’t lie. You can see hippos and crocodiles from some of the rooms and it’s mesmerising to see the dynamic between them. Staff especially at the reception can’t be more helpful and kind. I felt I’m in my family home. We hat a bush walk with Maitai( I hope I spelled his name right) which was so rich and memorable. Gave drive with Hirami was also very good. The food is delicious and having all those birds around makes everything even nicer.

From 9am to 6pm there was no hot water,on the day of arrival after a long journey all I needed was a shower and I had to [email protected] for it for 7 hours 😕 Our first room had all the disadvantages of riversiding with no animals in the swamp and bad smell but then they changed our room and new room had a breathtaking view with animals and no smell. Maybe it is better that based on the view they again categories the river view rooms. And lastly, please replace the plastic bottles entirely with glass ones( they were offering a mixture of both)

A great location. Exceptionally good staff - very friendly and hard working. Considering that it had been badly damaged by a flash flood less than 3 months ago they have worked hard to restore the facilities.

Only one suggestion. It would be good to have tea/coffee making facilities in the tents.

This is by far and away the best tented camp experience we have. Fig tree is perfection. The staff are absolutely wonderful… engaged, helpful, friendly, and lovely people.

NOTHING!

keep in mind: PARK FEE IS NOT INCLUDED - so, on top of the hotel bill, you‘ll pay $200 per person PER DAY to the park officials there (not the hotel, it‘s not in their hand). So for 3 nights I paid $600 on top.

Really great experience! Loved sitting outside and watching the hippos in the river. So peaceful and felt truly surrounded by nature. The staff was very attentive and always willing to help. Good food at the restaurant with a great variety of mains and desserts. As its in the park, it was amazing that we could literally drive out and see giraffes, zebras and wildebeest within meters of the camp.

They switch off the electricity for a few hours every night (it comes back up at 4AM), so if you're up you will have to rely on your own light. Wifi is only available in the restaurant area and the lobby.

Staff & Hospitality: What truly made our stay exceptional was the warmth and kindness of the staff. From the moment we arrived, we felt so well taken care of. The attention to detail and the genuine care they showed was heartwarming. The manager made it a point to check in with us daily, which added such a personal touch. We felt completely at home, and their thoughtfulness left a lasting impression. In-Room Experience: The river tent offered an incredible nature experience. We could see hippos right outside our room and woke up to birds singing every morning. However, for the price we paid, there were a few amenities missing, like an iron, kettle, tea, coffee, and higher-quality toiletries. Despite this, the views and connection to nature made it worthwhile. Food: The camp offers a fantastic selection of Indian food, which was a treat for us as vegetarians. The staff’s attention to our dietary preferences was outstanding, and we always felt that our needs were well looked after. Game Drives: The game drives were a highlight of our trip. Our driver, Jonathan, and guide, Gabriel, were knowledgeable and took us to different landscapes every day. We were lucky to see 4 of the Big Five and loved learning about the wildlife of the Maasai Mara. The ever-changing landscapes made each drive a new adventure. Special Experience: We celebrated my husband’s birthday with a private bush dinner, which was one of the most memorable experiences of our trip. We were surprised by a group of locals who came to sing happy birthday in their local language and brought a cake. It was a magical, heartfelt celebration that we will never forget.

There are two things that can potentially improve Quality of in room amenities Intention of water and soft drink in an all inclusive package

The Brefast and the other meals were good. The location of the place is amazing and the Staff is fantastic. All of them
