Siana Springs

Address:   Masai Mara, Kenya

Set on the southern side of the Masai Mara, not far from the Tanzanian border and the famous Serengeti, Siana Springs borders the Mara-Serengeti ecosystem, one of the greatest wilderness areas in the world and home to the mega-herbivores and big cats of Africa, including the annual migration of the wildebeest from July to September. The annual migration was listed as one of the Seven Wonders of the World by a jury of experts polled by USA's ABC Television in 2006 as the eighth natural wonder of the modern world. No visit to Africa is complete without a visit to the Mara.

Built on the Siana Conservancy belonging to the local Purko Maasai, the tented camp takes its name from the conservancy, for Siana in Maa means ‘plentiful’ and Siana Springs has the largest number of water springs in the Mara ecosystem.

The springs, fed from rain water percolating down the Ngama Hills - a stunning array of massifs lining the conservancy - feed the streams and rivulets with fresh, clean water flowing through an amazing forest of lush palms and indigenous plants that is home to a denizen of forest animals like the earth coloured bushbuck, tree hyrax and the colobus monkeys that reside at Siana Springs.

Set on spacious grounds, the 39 standard luxury tents ( 5 double bedded, and 34 twin bedded) - sectioned into 3 wings namely, Bamboo( 20 tents,) Acacia (10tents), and Palm( 9 tents) - are set beneath forest creepers, gigantic fig trees and the African acacias. The trees surrounding the perennial springs are also home to the resident bushbucks, colobus monkeys and tree hyrax. Spacious with plenty of light, the tents open onto a private verandah from where guests can enjoy watching the birds and other wildlife, including the resident bushbucks browsing in the gardens.To ensure the safety of the guests, the camp is secured by a low voltage perimeter fence to deter big game from encroaching into the gardens.
