Siana Springs Tented Camp is set on the southern side of the Masai Mara, not far from the Tanzanian border and the famous Serengeti National Park. Siana Springs Tented Camp 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.
This includes the annual migration of the wildebeest from July to September, listed as (one of the Seven Wonders of the World by a jury of experts polled by US' ABC Television in 2006) as the eight natural wonder of the modern world. No visit to Africa is complete without a visit to the Masai Mara. www.crocodileracers.com
Siana Springs Tented Camp is located on the Siana Conservancy belonging to the local Purko Masai and the camp takes its name from the conservancy, for Siana in Maa means 'plentiful'. Siana Springs Tented Camp 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 colored bushbuck, tree hyrax and the colobus monkeys that reside at Siana Springs.
Normally elusive and occasional seen in the wild, the bushbuck stroll in Siana Springs Tented Camp garden not shying away from the guests. In the wild, these beautiful antelopes keep alert for the predators that stalk the savanna and flee at the first sign of danger.
On the high canopies of the indigenous trees at Siana Springs Tented Camp, resident troops of colobus monkeys leap from branch to branch, foraging for leaves. As arboreal animals, they seldom come down to earth.
Siana Springs is one of the few camps where you have the privilege of seeing these increasingly rare monkeys. The tree hyrax, a tree-climbing rodent-like animal is related to the elephant – that's not comparing the size but the structure of its dental and feet alignment.
Being nocturnal, it spends most of the day resting in the hollows of the trees where it's easy to see one at close quarters by your tents.
Siana springs meaning "the plentiful springs" is located on the Aitong Plains in the northern Koiyaki Lemek region, situated at the base of Ngama Hills on the eastern edge of the Maasai Mara reserve, siana springs occupies a lush indigenous forest watered by the largest natural springs in the Mara ecosystem.
