An immersion in the Serengeti

Serian Lamai is a traditional tented camp in the Serengeti National Park , just one kilometer from the Mara River above crossing point four. Here you can marvel as thousands of wildebeests and zebras plunge into the churning waters of the Mara river to reach the grasslands of Kenya .

Open exclusively from June until September, Serian Lamai comprises four tents and two suites. These are fitted out with wrought iron beds and Moroccan rugs. Step out onto your veranda to see what the Serengeti has in store for you today, or head to the mess tent to enjoy a delicious meal. The fire-pit set up a short distance from the mess tent is the perfect spot for sipping a sundowner and sharing your safari stories.

As well as catching the famous river crossings, you’ll spend your days here enjoying game drives across the rolling savannah that teems with cheetahs, lions and elephants.

Places to combine Serian Serengeti Mobile Lamai with

Tanzania

Singita Sasakwa

Nominated as the Best Luxury Lodge in the world many times over, Singita Sasakwa is just that.

Singita Sasakwa has 10 opulent cottages where you can totally relax and and be feel completely pampered. Each cottage has a private heated plunge pool with views spanning across the stunning reserve and a private lounge with a fireplace to keep you warm on those chilly nights. Varying between one and four rooms, you will be able to enjoy your own little bit of class on this stunning reserve regardless of your numbers.

Swarovski telescopes give you the chance to do some serious game spotting from the comfort of your own room, and with game roaming so freely around the grounds of the lodge, you’ll have a zoom big enough to count eyelashes.

The main house is built in a remarkable likeness to an Edwardian manor house with grand furniture, silverware and high ceilings. As you walk in you will feel quite regal and as the staff do their magic, you don’t have to worry about anything whatsoever. You can simply relax and make the most of your time either out with the game or reading a book by the open fire.

Tanzania

Ngorongoro Crater Lodge

Perched up high on the edge of this remarkable natural wonder, the Ngorongoro Crater Lodge holds a prime position. With views spanning the spectacular caldera, you can enjoy a relaxing visit to this otherwise bustling attraction and dip into a world that’s the permanent home to roughly 25,000 animals.

The huge amounts of game that find sanctuary here roam over 20 kilometres on the crater floor and this allows for some excellent game viewing opportunities. Prides of bachelor lions are sometimes seen spanning the landscape, on the hunt for their own families and, dotted among the plains game, you might be lucky enough to spot a rhino in the distance. Morning and afternoon game drives are taken by highly experienced guides with visits to the nearby Olduvai Gorge available when vehicle occupancy allows.

The crater itself can get quite busy but there’s a peaceful quiet that flows through the rooms, social areas and outside spaces of the lodge. North and South Camp both have twelve beautiful suites and the Tree Camp, slightly set apart from the others, has just six. Raised up on stilts, these rooms are all tastefully decorated with Tanzanian hardwoods and silk curtains which make the rooms cosy and warm; the ridge can get quite nippy, after all. The dining areas have viewing decks and comfortable indoor lounges which are ideal for catching up on some midday afternoon reading, or ticking off the birds that you might have seen so far. You could also decide to have a relaxing massage in your room, and completely pamper yourself.

Tarangire National Park

Tarangire Treetops

Rather uniquely designed, this lodge sits in its own private game reserve on the fringes of Tarangire National Park.

The main area is built around a remarkable 700 year old Baobab tree, and is warmly decorated to fit in with the African bush that surrounds the lodge. Each of the 20 open-fronted tree houses (yes, tree houses!) are enormous and offer a luxury that is rather bizarrely perched up high with views spanning the Tarangire’s splendour.

The large deck in front of your house is ideal for bird watching or simply enjoying an ice cold drink after some great game experiences.

You have prime access to the National Park itself and can spend the day driving through the park, but due to restrictions of the Park you would have to return for the evening. You will not miss out of night drives however, as the lodge has access to the private reserve that it is located within and this affords you opportunities to see nocturnal animals on their moonlit strolls. You are also able to participate in some excellent guided bush walks to witness some of the finer details of the bush.
