Beyond your wildest dreams!

This 'camp' (it feels weird calling something so luxurious a 'camp') is unimaginably comfortable, stylish, and hospitable. The tent was SO luxurious that I opted to not even go out for safari on my full day there, I wanted to soak up the sites and sounds from the room! The food and wine is truly top-notch, the service excellent, and you can tell that this camp is truly a labor of love from the owners and the staff. If you have the good fortune to spend time in the Serengeti, I can guarantee that The Singing Grass will enhance your experience. If you're going for that once-in-a-lifetime vibe, this is it!

Osero Serengeti Tented Camp

Osero, (the Masai word for "Bush/wild") Serengeti Tented Camp located in the heart of African Wilderness in the Serengeti National Park, gives you endless opportunity to uncover and explore rare world beauty. The best of facilities in our tent, expert chefs preparing the ultimate gourmet feasts, lush green landscapes and rich cultures are only few of the many highlights of this amazing place.

Amazing experience with top quality service

Reviewed By ConorDeise

Absolutely unforgettable experience. In the heart of the breathtaking Serengeti, this place took me by complete surprise. I was expecting a medium quality camping experience but Osera achieved beyond my expectations. If anyone is familiar with glamping (posh camping), this is it except in the middle of the Serengeti. The tents have queen size beds and single beds (if required), a his and hers sink and fresh towels for the hot water shower also in your tent. The level of security is next level with an amazing level of respect for the animals. All signaling is done with a flashlight and walkie talkie, if required. As you dine in the impressive restaurant setting, one can hear the lions in the distance and Buffalo can be seen grazing. This is as real as it gets and is affordable, with quality and a level of service that is quite stand out. It is also worth mentioning that the level of English spoken by the staff here was a level above the other accommodations where we stayed. Cliche, I know but my only regret was not staying here for longer. Book Osera and you won’t be sorry.

Elewana Serengeti Pioneer Camp

Located in South Central Serengeti, within the Moru Kopjes area, Serengeti Pioneer Camp is ideally situated to offer superlative access to the annual migration and the ‘Big 5’ with sweeping views overlooking Moru Kopjes, Lake Magadi and the endless plains. Paying homage to the mobile camps of the 1930’s, a time when an African safari was truly a journey into the unknown, Serengeti Pioneer Camp’s ‘zero footprint’ and close proximity to nature combines to make an unmistakably distinctive and truly individual offering. Comprising of twelve-tented rooms, all of which have en-suite facilities including a flushing toilet, vanity basin, and showers, the tent interiors are designed to evoke the very best of an era long-gone but certainly not forgotten.

A memorable stay in the Serengeti!

Experienced a secluded tented 4 nts amongst the kopje rocks, splendidly serene views, attentive staff and quiet moments. Wait and support staff always nearby wanting to serve was an added bonus. The chef creates beautiful arrays and listens to allergies/dislikes for meal preps. Highly recommend. Thank you Said (manager) for running a smooth and hospitable operation.

A trip to remember

This trip was really fantastic, we got to see the big five and also enjoyed the stay at the Karibu camps. The hospital I and the accommodation was really amazing. Not forgetting the delicious food we ate at Karibu camps. We also got the chance to have evening drive to sunset views.

Good morning, Serengeti!

Reviewed By matthiaslV3383NP

Located right in the middle of the Serengeti, this small and familiar camp is the perfect place to stay overnight for a Safari tour. Overlooking a small river off the main road, it offers the opportunity to say good morning to a family of baboons and goodnight to the hyenas. The staff is very friendly, well organized and working extremely hard at making travelers feel welcome, safe and comfortable. Indeed, the spacious tents offer a comfort level close to a hotel room, all the time while being close to nature and the animals of the Serengeti. Highly recommend!

One of the best authentic camping experiences

Reviewed By Darius_0014

Stayed with my friends for two nights while exploring Serengeti and it was just the right level of comfort that one would expect in a camp in the middle of Serengeti. Nice welcoming staff that made sure we were well fed at all times, the bar well stocked and safe from the wild animals roaming the surrounding bushes. Pitch black nights were restful in the comfortable tents if you don't mind occasional lion roars and hyena noises. Its a great place to stay

Great safari camp experience

Reviewed By ruterd2022

My sister and I had a great safari camp experience at Mawe. We arrived in the evening and was greeted by buffalos near the reception and near our tent. The tented camp was a complete experience. We heard hyenas and other noises at night but regardless we felt safe and slept well. In the morning, there were buffaloes, wildebeest and lions close to the camp. The meals were delicious and tented accommodation has all the amenities including hot shower. Staff was very attentive to our needs. Kudos to Ransom, Chris and team.

Mbuzi Mawe Serena Camp

Embraced by an amphitheatre of monolithic rock sculptures known as kopjes, the reincarnated Serengeti Mbuzi Mawe Camp nestles in a secluded acacia glade with sweeping views over the alternately lush and burning plains of Serengeti National Park. Carefully sited on one of the main annual migrations.

Fun tent camp

Reviewed By Greg P

Pretty good place to stay. Tents are good, but not luxurious. There are no doors to the tent bathrooms. The staff is very friendly and helpful. As with most camps you'll need an escort at night to venture outside your tent. The baboons ar equity active and may try to come in the tends if the doors are unzipped.

This is a lovely camp

Reviewed By Derensel

We were treated exceptionally well by the welcoming people we found manning this lovely camp. The well maintained camp is exquisitely situated in the natural wild settings of Serengeti, but it is the gracious staff who won us over, constantly checking to see if we were comfortable, refilling our wine glasses, the hot-water buckets, tidying the rooms and so much more. The chef took notice of my dietary restrictions and made sure the buffet's variety accommodated my vegetarian palate, even for the carryon picnic box. Thank you for such a wonderful stay

Old fashioned style lodge in great location

Reviewed By Stay63163039420

We stayed 4 nights here and the rooms were very comfortable in a tented style with great views of the Serengeti and nice to hear the wildlife noises around us . It’s a reminder of colonial style of the 1920’s The staff are all lovely especially Grivin and Daniel who made our stay special and they are all very attentive to the guests needs . The downside is the food as there’s a set menu every evening and not much variety and no Tanzanian dishes .This seems to be the same in all the Serena lodges. Breakfast was very good and packed lunches need variety. There is possibility to get a massage by the lovely masseuse who did a great job Coffee and tea trays in the room were there
