When it comes to choosing the perfect safari destination, there are countless options to consider. However, for those seeking the ultimate combination of luxury, wildlife, and sustainable tourism, Saruni Wild in the heart of the Masai Mara should be at the top of your list. Situated within the Lemek Community-owned Conservancy, this eco-luxury camp offers more than just a breathtaking safari—it’s an opportunity to be part of a community-driven conservation effort while experiencing some of the most pristine wilderness in East Africa.
Here are 7 compelling reasons why Saruni Wild should be your next safari destination:
1. Experience True Wilderness at Your Doorstep
Imagine stepping out of your luxury safari tent to find yourself immediately surrounded by nature—majestic herds of wildebeest grazing on the plains, graceful antelope bounding across the grasslands, and the occasional predator lurking in the distance. Saruni Wild offers you an authentic wilderness experience, where the untamed beauty of the Masai Mara is right at your doorstep. The camp is situated in an area that is remote and untouched, ensuring that your stay will be immersed in the peace and quiet of the bush, far from the crowds of more commercialized camps.
2. An Eco-Friendly Luxury Experience
At Saruni Wild, luxury doesn’t mean sacrificing sustainability. The camp channels the timeless elegance of Kenya’s original tented safari camps, but with an emphasis on eco-conscious practices. From the solar-powered tents to the camp’s water conservation systems, every aspect of your stay has been thoughtfully designed with the environment in mind. By staying at Saruni Wild, you’re supporting a sustainable tourism model that promotes conservation and protects the Masai Mara ecosystem for future generations.
3. A Safari That Supports Community Conservation
When you book a safari with Gaga Tours at Saruni Wild, you’re doing more than enjoying a luxurious getaway—you’re supporting meaningful community conservation efforts. The camp is located within the Lemek Community Conservancy, a model of eco-tourism where the local Maasai community directly benefits from tourism revenue. This financial support helps fund wildlife conservation projects, community development, and anti-poaching initiatives, ensuring that both the land and the people thrive in harmony with the surrounding wildlife.
By staying here, you become a partner in the ongoing protection of this vital wildlife corridor, home to the Great Migration, lions, elephants, cheetahs, and other iconic African wildlife.
4. Personalized Service and Maasai Hospitality
One of the standout features of Saruni Wild is the warm, personalized service that you’ll receive from the Maasai team. From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel like part of the family.

5. Stunning Views and Unmatched Wildlife Encounters
Set against the backdrop of the Masai Mara’s diverse landscapes, Saruni Wild offers guests breathtaking views that are perfect for relaxation and wildlife watching. The camp overlooks vast plains where immense herds of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles roam freely. In the evenings, as the sun sets, you’ll witness stunning vistas with wildlife scattered across the horizon, a perfect scene to capture on camera or simply soak in while enjoying a sundowner.
With expert guides and close proximity to the Mara ecosystem, Saruni Wild gives you unmatched wildlife encounters. From intimate lion sightings to observing cheetahs stalking their prey, the experience will leave you in awe of nature’s raw beauty.
