Serengeti North Wilderness Camp

Northern Serengeti, Tanzania

About Serengeti North Wilderness Camp

Nestled in the heart of the Northern Serengeti, our seasonal wilderness camp offers an intimate escape from the crowds while positioning you directly in the path of the Great Migration. Located near the dramatic Mara River crossing points, this eco-conscious sanctuary moves with the herds to ensure optimal game viewing. The camp features just ten spacious canvas tents, each thoughtfully designed to blend seamlessly into the landscape. Guests enjoy the serenity of a small, undisturbed setting where nature often wanders right through the camp grounds. Sustainability is at the core of our operations, with solar power driving the camp and gravity-fed showers minimizing water and energy consumption. The warm African hospitality is delivered by a dedicated crew who prepare delicious meals and provide personalized service. Evenings are spent gathering around the campfire under a star-studded sky, sharing stories while enjoying sundowners. The spacious tents feature private verandahs with netted sitting areas, comfortable day beds, and ensuite bathrooms. This authentic experience combines luxury comfort with a deep respect for the environment, ensuring that a portion of every stay directly supports vital conservation initiatives like the Serengeti Desnaring Programme and the Kilimanjaro Tree Project.
