The staff was amazing. They are some of the nicest kindest people you will meet. We felt safe and learned an enormous amount about the animals in the area. It was my bday and they made me a cake and sang, it was unforgettable. Memories for a lifetime. I wish I could have stayed longer. The reviews do not do this place justice. The accommodations were more than we expected and the game drives were exciting and thrilling. We loved every moment.

Incredible experience! The tent was clean and roomy. They are situated in great location inside the park, serene environment by the river, awesome view from the tent. All the staffs are attentive, friendly, and professional, the guards, the chefs, all of them, thank you. Beatrice, our contact staff, was so kind and attentive. She made us feel at home, and totally spoiled us! :-) The safaris were just wonderful! Leo, our guide driver, is an incredible person all around. A Masai native, he knows the Mara like palm of his hand! And he is a great conversationalist. The food is amazing. We are on a vegetarian diet, and here we had some of the healthiest, most delicious food we could find in a restaurant. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/772E3E2709909F8EB2E425B5A09BFF1CC9A39CA01676189783228.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/86CE30D4B44A2656C11A90732507006EDE74C4561676189774580.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/CFB779592EC39104D0CCBDD2BBE1C54F7ECDE1E11676189780492.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Mahdi Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Paul 27 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities They stated that their CC machine was broken and I need to pay in cash!!!

I will never …. There are 600 other camps to stay at …I just believed there website …. DO NOT go to this camp!!!!! ##### Paul Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 6 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service This is a camp so amenities are pretty basic. That is very understandable. If you’re a light sleeper, you might not find the area conducive for you as hippos could get loud at night. My biggest issue with this camp is that by default they would clean the tent and rearrange your stuff. I get that cleaning is essential but as someone who functions in a very specific manner, I’d hate to find out that my things have been rearranged. I talked to the camp manager about this and he wasn’t apologetic at all. He just said there’s nothing he could do. Very rude! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kerry-Lynn 14 Dec 2022 ##### Kerry-Lynn Stayed 1 night in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 17 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Amazing stay at Julia's. Basic but comfortable camp in the Maasai Mara. Friendly staff, nice food, great location l, we could hear animals all around us every night. Our trip was made by George specifically. The experience he had and his warm smiling face greeting us at mealtimes and when we returned from game drives was the best part of our trip. We hope to see him again at Julia's when we come back next time. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Philipp 23 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We visited Julias River Camp for 5 days and it was a wonderful experience. The staff was very friendly, the food was incredibly well, the game drives with our guide Dennies were beautiful, the tents were big enough and well suited for the stay. We saw the "big five" in less than 2 days! We promised to visit the camp again! ##### Philipp Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ivan 5 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely camp, placed inside Masai Mara Reserve, right on river Talek. Our VIP tent was placed directly on the river so we could see hippos regularly. Camp stuff is great, very king and helpful. Food was excellent, far beyond our expectations. We are vegetarians and we didn't espect such a great food. VIP tent is quite spacious and comfortable, with nice terrace. Hot water was available all the time. WiFi was working in common aeras, but we barely used it. Considering price/quality rate, this camp could be one of the best options in entire Masai Mara. Highly recommended! ##### Ivan Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jared 4 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### In the middle of it all... Bearing in mind it is a camp, Julia's is an excellent stay. Right in the Mara, you don't have to wait for the game drive (which is amazing) to see the wildlife. ##### Jared Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Louise 27 Dec 2021 ##### Louise Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Salma 24 Oct 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This camp is just lovely.

Excellent location to immediately be immersed in complete Safari experience, friendly and professional team, the most excellent guide! Kios found 2 cheetahs about to hunt and positioned us with masterful ability to witness it. On a second cheetah hunt we were so lucky to observe he expertly maneuvered our vehicle to be the first forward to photograph unimpeded! Truly one of the most amazing experiences. Thank you Julia's River Camp for making our first family Safari utterly magical. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/086A3FD83BDEBDC9CF1CDF5427697FDEEF37777D1634807030477.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3F5AE5CB602829805A4326D475E6A8ABD03488F01634827551733.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Julie Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samuel 9 Oct 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Prisvärt boende Bra boende i tältcamp i Masai Mara National reserve. Bra mat, och bekvämt. Något små rum där det saknas avlastningsytor och förvaring för kläder. Saknas eluttag på rummen. ##### Samuel Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### celeste 7 Sept 2021 Beware of the management here as they will scam you. I booked on Expedia & for most dates you could book “2 game drives per day”, but there was no option to book them for the dates I wanted. I contacted Expedia & the property to see why I couldn’t book the game drives for my dates & they said I could pay upon arrival. At the camp, the manager told me that I owed double the rate per day shown on Expedia (hundreds of dollars different). I showed him the Expedia app, which clearly said 2 and my conversations with the camp before arriving that said the price included 2 drives. They fought me over WhatsApp for an entire afternoon. I got a hold of Expedia and they contacted the property. The manager eventually agreed to the posted price, but said I owed an additional fee/day, which I had already paid.  Also, another friend came to stay there with me. Other guests in the camp were going to the airstrip when my friend was arriving and they invited me to join, so that I could greet her. The manager told me that I would be charged an airport transfer fee if I went with them. It cost them nothing additional for me to ride out with one group and back with my friend who was additional business that I brought them. After several conversations, the manager hesitantly agreed that I could go for free. But this took about an hour to resolve. I lost an entire day to phone calls and conversations with management. ##### celeste Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leslie 5 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We loved Julia’s! The meals provided were delicious three and four course meals, they had a nice selection of beverages to choose from, and the two daily game drives that are included in the stay were amazing. We had an excellent driver, Dennis, the entire time, and the rest of the camp staff were super helpful and pleasant. This place was comfortable and of excellent value. The setting was lovely and we heard hippos and elephants by the river at night. I don’t know why you would stay anywhere else. If we’re back in the Mara we will definitely stay here again. ##### Leslie Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Olivier 3 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Experience et lieu fantastiques.

The location is near many lion prides, cheetahs and leopards (it is just a bit of a drive to the migration river crossing area). We saw many animals grazing on the other side of the river and hippos in the river from our tent and dining area. Hear all kinds of animals at night when sleeping but always felt safe in the unfenced camp with the security (always walking you to/from your tent after dark). The service was amazing- every staff was attentive and friendly and made sure we felt comfortable. Lastly, the game drives with Denis our guide and driver was truly excellent. We saw so much more than expected and every day there was something new. We will definitely come back to visit! ##### Carol Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eunice 30 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful safari experience Beautiful and peaceful place.

Delicious three course meals, three times a day cooked by Steve - catering to dietary requirements and requests (delicious Kenyan banquet on the last night). The tents (more like luxury villas) had comfortable beds, hot water showers, WiFi, mosquito nets, and of course incredible views of the river and occasional lion and hippo! The location of the camp is unbelievable, we only had to drive 2 mins and we saw cheetah with 4 cubs, lion tribe, and countless other amazing creatures. The staff looking after us were great too - good fun, accommodating, and did all the could to share their knowledge of the area and keep us safe, special thanks to Mishak!
