Uniquely, this elite tented camp moves twice a year within the national park to ensure the best possible sightings of this phenomenon. From mid-December to the end of March, the camp is located in the Ndutu region, on a hilltop site – the perfect location from which to witness the migration and the wonders of the calving season. From this vantage point, stunning views of Lake Ndutu and iridescent sunsets can be absorbed too.
From the start of June to the end of October, the camp is located in the Lobo area, in proximity to both the Grumeti and Mara Rivers, with convenient access to the Lobo Airstrip. It offers an equally sensational experience of the migration and the surrounding environment. The particular region in which the camp is located is highly exclusive, with few other camps in the area, offering raw and uninterrupted nature viewing.
The Serengeti Sojourn is not operational during the months of April, May and November, as well as early December.
After breakfast say your final goodbyes to the camp crew and then - a short transfer with game viewing en route - to the nearby airstrip. Depart mid-morning by scheduled flight arriving in Arusha. Connect with your flight to Zanzibar.
