Recently stayed at Naibor, and the staff welcomed us, and helped us with our bags. After a long day of traveling, we were welcomed by first class people, that made sure we were comfortable and secure. The Safari land, is truly wild, so it is nice to know that warriors are protecting you and your family 24/7. Despite a noisy... More

The Naibor Camp is a class act. The accommodations are superb with great care given to every detail. The entire staff are very well trained, welcoming and gifted with hospitality.

We stayed here in july 2012 for our honeymoon. The staff was great and location was amazing - can't beat sleeping in the middle of the safari. Also helped for the mornings - you get to see action the entire time. WE LOVED THE DRIVES - went twice a day and saw all the big 5 plus a kill! The... More

We spent 3 nights at Naibor Camp in February as part of a 5 camp 14 night trip to Kenya and Tanzania. This was our favorite camp. The camp is set in a grove of trees overlooking a bend in the Talek River. The lunch/cocktail area overlooks a pool with a large number of hippos that provide great entertainment. The... More

I visited Naibor Camp with my girlfriend and three friends on the 5th & 6th of January 2013. Her friends, who live and work in Nairobi, had recommended Naibor to us and the place lived up to their descriptions of it, it was a plus to have them along on the trip. Right from the pick up at the Olkiombo... More

This camp (Little Naibor) was recommended to us by friends who live and work in Nairobi. An excellent recommendation! The location is fantastic, situated on the bend of a river where many hippos and crocodiles spend their days. It is also in the middle of the Kenya Masai Mara so safaris really did start as you left the camp. The... More

Arriving at Naibor Camp was an experience in itself. We were greeted by our guide/driver Jackson who is a charismatic, warm hearted Masai Mara warrior. Upon our 20min drive from the airport to the campsite we came across the beautiful wildlife that is Kenya. The actual campsite is simply stunning but what made it such a memorable experience was the... More

Everything was just perfect and we didn't want to leave! We loved the camp managers, Ivan & Kim, who have created the perfect combo of comfort and wildlife. Naibor has the best vehicles for game drives - open tops for maximum viewing, cool boxes for a nice cold glass of wine at sunset while watching lions wake up from their... More
