Alex Walker's Serian

Top choice in Masai Mara


Some of Mara North's most beautiful lodgings, Serian (which means 'serene' in the Maa language) overlooks the Mara River with the Oloololo Escarpment as a backdrop. The tents here, a winning mix of thatch, wood and canvas, are luxurious and they revel in the mystique and nostalgia of the East African safari. The guides here are excellent.

The views from the bathtubs are reason enough to stay here.
