Ubuntu Migration Camp detail

Ubuntu Camp with Moonlight Tours Expedition

At Ubuntu Camp, experience the raw beauty of the Serengeti in an authentic and intimate setting. This semi-permanent mobile camp is strategically located to offer the best viewing opportunities of the Great Migration as the wildebeest make their dramatic Mara River crossings and travel through Tanzania’s Serengeti ecosystem. Designed for the adventurous at heart, Ubuntu Camp balances a back-to-basics safari experience with the comfort of well-placed amenities, creating an unforgettable journey into the wild.

From June to October, the camp is positioned in the northern Serengeti, right on the migration route. As the herds make their dramatic river crossing, you’ll have front-row seats to witness one of nature’s greatest spectacles. From November to March, the camp moves to the southern Serengeti, where the herds rest, graze, and calve. With only ten luxury tents, Ubuntu Camp offers a personal and immersive safari experience, allowing you to feel truly connected with the wildlife around you.

At Moonlight Tours Expedition, we ensure your stay at Ubuntu Camp is tailored to provide you with the most authentic and memorable experience. Wake up to the sounds of the bush, enjoy hot drinks in the morning, and embark on daily game drives led by experienced guides to uncover the wonders of the Serengeti. Whether you’re exploring the open plains or relaxing by the campfire after a day of adventure, Ubuntu Camp guarantees a true wilderness experience.
