Camp

25 Tents

Seronera & Central Serengeti, Serengeti, Tanzania

What you'll love

A dramatic view from the tents (that are more like luxury cabins) with outdoor showers that are perfectly positioned for vistas of the wildlife-rich Serengeti by day, and the star-filled sky at night.

Insiders tip

There are big cats a plenty in the area around camp, but if you visit in migration season, you'll have the added bonus of thousands of snorting wildebeest running wild. Amazing.

Something to think about

The rooms are rather close together! They still offer a certain degree of privacy but they're definitely closer than you may be used to...

The property

The main area of this cosy lodge boasts a deck, lounge, and infinity pool with spectacular views over the Serengeti plains below. With its large living areas that allow guests to unwind in the lap of luxury while still giving them a front-row seat to passing wildlife, the camp offers exclusivity and a modern atmosphere. If you so wish, you can connect to the internet using the lodge's free Wi-Fi.

The rooms

Accommodation comes in the form of 25 spacious and stylish tents built on wooden platforms overlooking the Serengeti National Park. Each tent has a private, en-suite bathroom (outdoor shower, wash basin and toilet) and a double bed or two singles, with mosquito nets. All rooms are tastefully decorated, featuring a terrace with magnificent views. Kubu Kubu uses solar power, backed up by a generator to light up their tents but you'll often be found outside enjoy the constellations.

Amazing hosts that took care of our every need (even washed my daughter's shirt when she got blood on it). Beautiful scenery. Tents and logding was amazing! Excellent food and atmosphere. Always felt welcome.

Absolutely the best lodging right in the Serengeti! We saw so many animals on the road leading into, and even a water buffalo grazing right outside our room. Very beautiful location and the service was exceptional.

The Serengeti National Park is an ecologically rich environment and home to vast herds of wildebeest, zebra, Thomson's gazelle and buffalo grazing on the sweet grasses of the savannah. Even after the Great Migration has moved through, the game viewing is exceptional in this region. The predators are never far off, with cheetah and lion in abundance and leopard readily seen in the Seronera region of the Central Serengeti. Enjoy expansive grasslands, acacia thickets, meru kopjes (granitic hills) and riverine forests.
