What can I say except that my experience was phenomenal. From personalized attention during the booking process, fabulous accomodation, friendly, helpful staff, and an INCREDIBLE guide, my safari adventure was perfect. I plan to recommend Mara Siria to everyone I know and hopefully I will be able to come back and visit again someday in the future. The site is... More

Without doubt my favourite place to stay when on safari. The staff are wonderful, they are polite and friendly, the food is excellent and nicely varied. The drivers, ours was Jesse, were knowledgable and interesting and most of all the setting and the wildlife were superb. You must try and stay here if you can!

We booked our Safari through a travel agent in Nairobi, Phoenix Safari (not helpful & informative enough) and stayed in the Mara Siria Camp. 3 nights under the stars, this beautiful camp is situated along the ridge 1000ft overlooking the Mara plain. each tent is sparsely spaced from each other with an environmental understanding encompassed with the natural surroundings. There... More

Mara Siria Camp is situated on top of a hill in the northern part of the park, right by the Mara Triangle. It has, by far, one of the most (if not THE most) breathtaking view of Masai Mara. The staff was wonderful and we were treated like kings by everyone we met. The tent was large, spacious and well... More

Our family of four stayed at the Mara Siria Camp for 3 nights and truly enjoyed the entire experience! This is not a top of the line luxury camp, but was in many ways an even better experience (we have stayed at those as well). The tents were perfect for what we needed, the personalized service excellent (even preparing special... More

As others have remarked, "luxury" in the name may mislead some. This is a solidly comfortable, well-managed little resort that has nailed many important ingredients, starting with the friendly, knowledgeable staff who are all willing to go the extra mile. I certainly wasn't expecting full-service game drives with just one other person sharing an open-sided four-wheel-drive that was perfect for... More

I have booked a 2 night Camp holiday via Phoenix Safaris, a german tour operator for Kenyan holidays, based in Nairiobi. I booked my holiday from Germany and the whole booking procedure went very efficient and convenient. My Kenyan friends recommended Phoenix Safari s to me and I fully advise booking through them. I flew from Nairobi to the Mara,... More

First, we booked our trip through Alex at Lonsai Adventure(info@lonsaiadventure.com). Interestingly, by doing this, we saved money and we received more bang for our buck. I know. It doesn't make sense that you should save money by not booking with Phoenix Safari direct, but we did. Second, we requested an open 4x4 vehicle and it is totally worth it. Not... More

I was skeptical of staying in a tent - I'm not a camping enthusiast or curious person. This is the closest I'd get to camping and, trust me, it's not close at all. We had an amazing experience - our view was insane, the food was great and the staff was the incredible. We loved those guys! They're all very... More

We booked the Mara Siria through Phoenix Safaris five months in advance. Looking forward to our luxury weekend and having paid extra to book the two 'Deluxe Tents', we set off from Nairobi. Things started to go wrong with an old map Phoenix Safaris had provided us adding a good 30-45 minutes to the already tough road journey. On arrival... More
