Singita Serengeti House

Singita Serengeti House offers a refined, luxuriously comfortable safari experience in the form of a contemporary African home. From the gentle slopes of Sasakwa Hill, it boasts undisturbed vistas of the Serengeti plains and wildlife gathering at the nearby watering hole. Singita understands that everyone is a bit different and likes to take a more laidback approach, so they invite their guests to take the wheel with entirely customised safari experiences. No matter where you’d like to go and when, there’ll always be amazing things to see, whether it’s a cheetah stalking their prey or wildebeest happily grazing or spotting the rare Colobus monkeys in the trees. But, with a frequently visited watering hole right on the lodge’s doorstep, you won’t even have to leave the peace and quiet of your private deck to watch the wonderful wildlife entirely disturbed, so even if you need to slow down for a day you’ll never be missing out!

Sanctuary Kusini Camp

Perched on a remote kopje in the southern Serengeti, Sanctuary Kusini Camp is an exclusive tented safari camp with the privilege of overlooking game-rich plains and hosting front row seats to the annual Great Migration. Its location has been carefully chosen so guests can make the most of both the tranquil and the wild side of nature. Head out in the early morning for an action-packed game drive with sightings of all the Big Five and perhaps the thrill of the Migration herds crossing the golden plains, then rest easy with romantic sundowners and gorgeous views of the Serengeti plains before laying back for some stargazing. With only 12 tents dotted through the acacia woodland you’ll be free from crowding or touristy disturbances that could get in the way of your safari adventure. A true wilderness gem, Kimondo can’t wait to share the wonders of the Serengeti with you!
