From crater-rim lodges to camps that follow the herds
Economy to luxury accommodation across the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara, Tarangire and Lake Victoria.
Luxury lodges, tented camps, or budget-friendly options
Luxury lodges bring spacious rooms, gourmet dining and exclusive amenities in prime wildlife locations. Tented camps mix comfort with an authentic bush feel - some are even mobile, relocating with the Migration to keep you close to the action.
Budget-friendly campsites and simpler lodges deliver the same core experience with fewer frills, often on a full-board basis.

Tarangire
Burunge Tented Lodge on Lake Burunge, Ang'ata Tented Camp overlooking the Tarangire River, and Tarangire Sopa Lodge inside the park.
Lake Victoria
The Serenity of the Lake Lodge, 20km outside the Serengeti on the lake's shore - a distinctive stop on longer itineraries.
Ndutu and Mara Under Canvas
These mobile camps relocate through the year to stay close to the migration: south plains (December-March), the East Corridor (June-July), and the north (August-November).
It means your camp is always positioned near the wildlife action for that season, rather than asking you to travel further to reach it.
