Blown Away - Best Holiday Ever

Yvonne MG, - February 2019

Zebra, buffalo and impala amongst other animals wandered freely around the lodges and many were spotted on the way to the Bush. The camp was spotless and every last detail was catered for. Your safety was their priority and a member of staff was always at hand to walk with you at night from the main building to your cot...

Life changing

Chris J, - February 2019

Laura and I had the absolute privilege of being guests of Saruni Mara in February 2019. How does one give a ‘score’ of 15 out of 10 because we would if we could. From Cecila’s smile and wicked wit via every member of the camp staff to our guide, Dixon, we have never encountered more welcoming, more happy, smilimg people anywhere in the world we have traveled. We honestly cannot say enough good things about Saruni Mara. We’re currently in Zanzibar and the pull to return to Saruni is overwhelming....
