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.
