With an Average review score of 4.6 out of 5, Siruai is a hard core Safari enthusiast mobile camp which doesn’t come with luxurious add-ons like swimming pools, message parlors or fancy amenities that other top end lodges come with. Its a seasonal Camp only opening between Mid December to mid January and back from April to Mid October. The reason for closure of the camp is to give the Environment enough time to regenerate and breathe. As you can already note the camp is environment friendly with only bare necessities.
The camp sits on 43,000acre Siyuian private Ranch which belongs to the Powy’s family who are also multi generational Settlers from European Descent. The Ranch is situated in North West Laikipia, perched on a rocky ridgeline, overlooking the Ewaso Narok river valley and the Laikipia Plateau.
