  • 11 Tent/s

Legendary Serengeti Camp is a mobile unit that travels through the Greater Serengeti Ecosystem each year from June until April, with premier sites in the northern, western, and southern corners of Tanzania’s largest national park.

The camp’s location is dictated by the thundering hoofs of the Great Migration: set in Southern Serengeti in the exclusive Maswa Game Reserve from December through April, the camp offers a prime access to the miraculous calving season.

It relocates to Western Serengeti from mid-May to mid-July, following the wildebeest as they pause to rut on their annual pilgrimage northward.

At the top tip of the Serengeti, the camp is set up on the Mara River, site of the famed river crossings, from mid-July through November.

With a private vehicle and guide for each group, the sense of having the Serengeti to oneself is a luxury the camp takes pride in affording its guests.

No one who has had the chance to see nearly two million animals on the move can fail to be awed by its magic - and conjuring this astounding encounter with one of Nature’s most dazzling spectacles is the very premise on which Legendary Serengeti Camp is based.

Region

The Serengeti National Park is a Tanzanian national park in the Serengeti ecosystem in the Mara and Simiyu regions. The name Serengeti comes from the Masai language, meaning endless plains, due to its extensive area of 5,700 square miles. Famed for its annual migration of over 1.5 million white-bearded wildebeest and 250,000 zebras, along with over 500 bird species and the high chance of catching a glimpse of the Big Five, the Serengeti is one of the world’s greatest wildlife-watching destinations.

The park is divided into three regions of different landscape and wildlife. Northern Serengeti is dominated by open woodlands, and is subsequently the best place to find giraffe, elephant and dik-dik. The Western corridor is covered in black clay soil, with the Grumeti River running through, home to Nile crocodiles, hippopotami and martial eagles. The Serengeti plains boast the most emblematic scenery of the park, as this is where the wildebeest breed, and other hoofed animals such as zebra, gazelle, impala and waterbuck also occur in huge numbers.

With a diverse landscape and the incredible number of animals that live there, few people forget their first encounter with the Serengeti.

During the Dry season the Serengeti stays warm and pleasant. At night, however, the temperatures take a dip. Wildlife watchers are better off in the dry months, especially June to September as the incredible wildebeest migration can be seen. Predators can be seen in action during January and February, this is the hiatus in the annual rains and when the wildebeests calve.
