    Serian Adventure Fly Camp

    Serian Fly Camp, Kenya

    A traditional African adventure on foot

    Fly camping takes its name from sleeping in the bush under nothing more than a flysheet, as was the camping tradition before the luxury-laden era of glamping arrived. The premise is that you spend your days walking, and the nights sleeping out in light weight tents, in a makeshift camp that moves each day – the end of each day’s walk brings you to your new site for the night.

    Accompanied by specialist guides, walking takes you further off the beaten track, and off any track entirely, away from any sign of human habitation allowing your senses to really come alive in a place where they evolved – the African plains. The walks are at your own pace, with plenty of stops on the way to marvel at sightings along the way, and cosy beds, warm bucket showers and a hearty meal around the campfire await at the end of the day.

    the pace is set by you, and is punctuated by plenty of stops along the way to discover, learn and marvel at the infinite fascinations you will chance upon. And at the day’s end, creature comforts await: cosy beds, warm bucket showers, and a hearty meal around the campfire as you gaze up at the stars.

    Fly camping can be done as a night in between time at a main camp, such as nearby Serian Serengeti South or Serian Kusini, or make a two or three day adventure of it, adding a whole new dimension to your experience and a taste of the wilderness that few others ever encounter.

    Serian Kimya Kimya

    Maasai Mara

    Serian Kimya Kimya

    Tucked into a secluded riverside within the vast expanse of the Mara North Conservancy in Kenya, Serian’s Kimya Kimya is an intimate retreat offering the opportunity to experience the magical Maasai Mara. The camp is located in Ngare Serian’s private conservancy, which borders the main Maasai Mara Reserve. The area allows for off-road driving and guided walking safaris, meaning more intimate, immersive encounters that bring you closer to the land, its wildlife and its stories.

    Kimya Kimya is designed to accommodate just six guests, making it one of the most exclusive accommodations in the region. Crafted from timber and canvas, the main suite spans two stories and offers a front-row seat to the river’s daily drama. From the upper level, a deep bush bath sits poised above the flowing water-an invitation to enjoy a soak whilst elephants wander by and hippos swim in the pools below. The suite also features both indoor and outdoor dining areas, a plush mosquito-netted bed and open-air showers. Two additional tented suites are located nearby, ideal for families or small groups. Each is designed with spacious en suite bathrooms and private decks, offering serene vantage points for a morning coffee or quiet contemplation after a day of adventure.

    The camp includes a dedicated private vehicle, expert guide and personal chef, allowing you the freedom to tailor each day to your preferences. Rise with the sun for a walking safari across the plains, follow predator tracks through golden savannahs or simply linger in camp, lulled by the sounds of the river. In the evening, enjoy fireside aperitifs or lantern-lit dinners beneath the stars.
