Serengeti North Wilderness Camp is a ‘seasonal’ camp located in the north of the Serengeti National Park, a short distance from the Mara River.

Serengeti North Wilderness Camp is perfectly located to witness the ‘greatest show on earth’, the annual Wildebeest migration as they cross the Mara river.

Comprising just twelve spacious tents (including a 4-bed family tent), each having comfortable beds and quality linen, with en suite flushing toilet and ‘bush shower’. Lighting is by 12-volt (solar powered) with bedside lamps provided. The tents each have a shady verandah.

An airy, central dining tent complements our comfortable lounge tent which has a small reference library, maps, some games for children and a recharging facility for cameras, videos as well as WiFi. The safari chef will prepare sumptuous meals for your enjoyment. Evenings offer a typical safari campfire around which our guests enjoy sundowners and snacks and relive the day’s experiences. Serengeti North Wilderness Camp is a friendly, intimate quality tented bush camp, with good facilities in an amazing area, with due respect for the fragile ecosystem.

The northern Serengeti is beautiful — a mix of gently rolling hills, riverine forests and broken by small rivers and occasional granite outcrops and ‘kopjes’. This is the place to be between June and November when masses of migrating Wildebeest and Zebra cross over the Mara River. Dramatic river crossings ensue as tens of thousands of animals hurl themselves into the waters in a desperate bid to safely reach the other side.
