Located deep in Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park, Grumeti Serengeti Tented Camp is in the thick of the region’s tremendous wildlife action. Set in an emerald forest facing an oxbow lagoon of the Grumeti River – a favorite with playful hippos, as well as being the only place in the country where the thumbless, pied colobus monkey is found – the camp consists of only 10 double tents, making for intimate interaction with nature.
During the annual Great Migration, the camp is perfectly positioned to witness the intense drama when thousands of wildebeest, gazelles, and zebras cross the Grumeti River, home to Africa’s largest and most powerful Nile crocodile. Beyond the Migration, Serengeti National Park is home to 35 species of plains game, including the Big 5, cheetahs, and spotted hyenas, as well as raptors like Rüppell’s and African white-backed vultures. The camp’s hippo guests wallow in the lagoon and you will be able to hear their grunts and bellows from your bed or outdoor shower; you will also be able to get the classic ‘laughing hippo’ and ‘hippo surfacing with water weed’ photographs!
With family-friendly accommodations and secluded honeymoon suites, Grumeti Serengeti Tented Camp is ideal for experienced safari hands or adventurous newcomers alike.
Highlights
Activities
Loved everything about this camp. Spacious accommodation, great location by the river, the hippos in the river, and the staff. And the list carries on & on!
Rooms
Safari Tent
Ten spacious and comfortable suites with king-sized beds line the riverside, positioned 20m apart for privacy and to take advantage of the marvelous views. Palm-thatch roofs cover the colorfully decorated canvas rooms that have large gauze windows to allow air and light in but keep insects at bay. Overhead fans keep you blissfully cool, and the en suite bathrooms feature enclosed outdoor showers and hairdryers. All rooms have a ‘gym in a basket’, consisting of a yoga mat and free weights, for those who want a workout on their private verandah.
Facilities
A vibrant and playful décor theme runs through the lodge, where a large central building houses the lounge, dining, and bar areas. Thatch, wood, and stone are artfully blended to create a seamless transition from the outdoor wilderness to the comfortable interiors. The colorful and inviting lounge flows out onto a viewing deck overlooking the water where playful hippos frolic. The swimming pool alongside is the perfect spot for a refreshing dip during lazy afternoons watching the local wildlife passing by, and an amply-stocked gift shop provides you the chance to pick up a memento or two.
Dining
With an emphasis on wholesome and healthy fare, meals feature a variety of freshly prepared delights, like fresh fruit platters and piping hot waffles. From the ‘wake-up’ coffee service and pre-game drive breakfast buffet to exciting picnics out in the wild or light lunches on the terrace, every mealtime is a treat. Delicious African-inspired dinners are often cooked over an open fire or in special safari ovens, served alfresco below the stars, or in the intimate boma area.
