Great safaris around the Mara Timbo camp, great! *

I was there with my wife for four nights-we called it 'animal honeymoon'. The small luxury camp was located about 20 minutes from small tap flight harbor, total romantically on the banks of the Mara-rivers. The tents are simply stunning. Visitor mix-some tent, partly house, with a tasteful and stilsicheren decor, which one finds itself in a normal Hotel five stars not always, here in the boondocks but not expected. The bathroom and shower in every tent, the huge king size bed (with great mattresses!), the huge terrace with direct view of the river, with live transportation, give the impression of perfect. The icing on the cake is the open/bathtub on the terrace, which we use every night and enjoyed. The nice thing about this camp is, you can can be undisturbed, if you want it, and we wanted it to be so-honeymoon! The only seven tent houses for the guests are quaint lined up on the banks of the river. Since we wanted to enjoy our peaceful seclusion, we had rented a private jeep for the safaris. So we could decide alone, were there is, and how long are we in which animals on a safari and wanted to build. We had meetings with the unique animals in Kenya's immediate vicinity of Maratimbo-camps, with the jeep on the way, sometimes even on foot at the nature walk. Guides, and we were given two Masai guides, which led us to walk to in the immediate vicinity of a giraffe herd. And then we had to discover in the jeep on the way to the camp Luckily, the big five so-called four of us. The rhino was missing. It was then later elsewhere in the national park to see. Wrong! We sat in the camp after the game travels often easily on the banks of the river is only a few meters away from the exciting transportation, crocodiles or Pavianhorden could watch on the far side of the river. On a daily basis so it was very large wilderness-cinema. We have the finest culinary treat. Good wine, great cocktails and the food, great. The prices: not so cheap, but moderate face of this quality and unique service by a private & discreet butler. We were also not to be missed is a daily massage, massage-the house is located in a few meters altitude directly on the river, so that you believe, the transportation to almost touch. In the evening in front of the crackling fire an outdoor dinner a la 'out of Africa' and then again in our open-air bathtub. Wonderful. Our marriage with a honeymoon in such a safari camp to start the beach was simply fabulous. It was deeply impressed. A hundred %-five stars star recommendation.
