About Alex Walker’s Serian Camp
Alex Walker’s Serian Camp
This was the first of Alex Walker’s Serian camps, and it perfectly captures the essence of its name, meaning ‘peaceful, calm, serene’ in the Maasai language. The camp was designed to be a retreat from the bustle of contemporary life, and a chance to experience untamed Africa in traditional tented fashion.
The camp lies in the private Mara North Conservancy, with its seven tents and mess tent strung out along the river. The beauty of this location within a private conservancy is that only 10 or so other small safari camps have access to the land, with a ratio of around 1 guest to 350 acres. This helps to ensure exclusivity and a top-quality, low-density safari experience.
