What you'll love

The unmatched experience of waking up to the sounds of the migrating herds and dining under the stars in true safari style.

Insiders tip

Book during the river-crossing season for a chance to witness one of the most dramatic wildlife events as thousands of wildebeest brave crocodile-infested waters.

Something to think about

This is a true mobile camp, so while luxury is present, it’s more about immersion than a lodge-style stay. With an age restriction of 6 years and older, young families will need to look elsewhere.

The property

A spacious mess tent serves as the heart of the camp, where you can meet for delicious meals and share stories of the day’s sightings. The decor is subtle and understated, allowing the scenery to take centre stage. Outdoor canvas chairs and a fire pit provide the perfect spot to indulge in sundowners and conversation while enjoying the breathtaking sunsets.

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.
