Click here to be the first to review Serengeti Safari Camp
Each year, Serengeti Safari Camp casts off from the northern Serengeti and begins its own odyssey. Covering hundreds of miles and moving every couple of months along a route that the herds have traveled for hundreds of years, Serengeti Safari Camp is where you come for your migration fix.
The Camp
Location: Serengeti National Park, Tanzania
Number of Tents: 6
Serengeti Safari Camp has just six open-plan walk-in Meru-style tents, each with an en suite bathroom at the rear. One of these tents is a family tent with two bedrooms and an adjoining sitting area. The en suite bathrooms feature new eco-flush toilets and safari-style bucket showers, as well as a wash basin with cold running water, and hot water delivered on request. The main dining tent sits in the middle of the line of tents, with the fireplace right in front and a separate library and bar tent nearby. The camp hearkens back to a day of pioneering the safari. It was designed with the purpose of being in the best possible location to view the wildebeest migration as it covers hundreds of miles of the Serengeti National Park each year. The camp moves seasonally with the migrating herds, so it is always in the most promising area to view nature's greatest land mammal migration.

Wildlife Viewing & Activities
During the famous Great Migration, the wildebeest can be found dropping their young in the southern Serengeti between December and March, and are typically found attempting to cross the Mara River in the northern Serengeti between July and October. The resident wildlife in the park is found year-round. Other typical sightings may include jackal, warthogs and a number of other mammals, birds and reptiles. Exact sightings will depend on rain patterns and wildlife movements.
