Meaning ‘balance’ in Swahili, Usawa offers the perfect balance between the action and drama of the migration, and exclusivity, with the camps set up in the quieter, more remote areas of the park. Guests are completely immersed in the unfiltered nature experience, whether witnessing herds of migrating wildebeest or enjoying a quiet bush picnic and sundowners afterwards.

Though the camp moves several times throughout the year, Wilderness Usawa Serengeti is intimate, with no comfort or luxury overlooked, and the set-up is complete with high-end touches and exceptional service.

Wilderness Usawa Serengeti is a sustainable operation: solar-powered, locally sourced and built with an impressively light footprint that does not compromise the precious Serengeti environment.

The camp will be configured in whichever way is best for the environment, with a central dining area and social fire pit, and the rooms extending out on either side of that.

At any given time, mobile camps are set up as close to the herds as possible.

Wilderness Usawa Serengeti moves with the herd as the animals travel throughout the year across the length and breadth of the national park, with camps set up in various key locations on the migration route. The camps comprise beautiful open-plan tents with view-facing beds, offering an intimate, authentic tented camp, and the thrill of an immersive tented experience with all comforts and luxury that Wilderness guests are accustomed to.

The in-tent experience draws on the out-of-camp environment: the golden grasses of the savannah. With 360° mesh-sided surrounds, guests are immersed in the wild landscape. With luxurious linens, view-facing beds and an en-suite bathroom, the camp celebrates the best of a tented experience with all the luxurious touches Wilderness guests are accustomed to.

Wilderness Usawa Serengeti offers a spacious, open-plan, family unit with view-facing beds to cater for adventurous families travelling to Tanzania. As Wilderness’ first luxury mobile tented camp operation following Serengeti National Park’s legendary Great Migration, Usawa offers the thrill of an immersive luxury tented experience in pristine wilderness settings. The perfect balance between adventure and exclusivity.

The family offering doubles the space available to families by offering two luxurious tents joined together with an external passage between them, making one family unit. This creates an open yet protected space to enjoy together with the comfort of family members nearby.

Usawa’s family unit can accommodate up to three children (a maximum of five people). Wilderness’ expert Tanzanian team has years of experience hosting family safaris in the region, and will offer numerous exciting adventures for children from 06 years of age, as well as delicious child-friendly meals.

* Wilderness Usawa Serengeti can only be booked on a sole use basis in order to accept children younger than 06 years.
