The Serena Safari Experience
The word “Safari” means “journey”
in Kiswahili but since the days of the “Great
White Hunters” a “Safari”
has evolved to mean a spectacular bush adventure
that takes in sightings of a glorious selection
of game, flora, fauna and bird life whilst delivering
awe inspiring scenery, show-stopping views and
wildlife encounters of the most exciting kind.
The Serena Safaris operate
via our fleet of safari-adapted Land Cruisers
and are led by experienced tracker/guides. Picnics,
water/cool boxes, bush-craft texts etc are provided.

experiences, a balloon safari allows you drift
in silence above the splendour of the plains,
dip down to visit the hippo pools of the Mara
River, enjoy a bird’s eye view of the

champagne breakfast cooked and served in the
middle of the bush.
