The SafariThe Safari

Serengeti Under Canvas features Tanzania's largest and most spacious mobile en-suite tents. The locations of the camps are carefully plotted to coincide with the movements of the annual migration as it traverses the Serengeti plains. Our hosts have secured some of the best semi-permanent campsites, allowing them flexibility in moving the camps according to the expected migration movements. The massive herds move relatively slowly, enabling planning ahead and setting up the luxurious camps in the best possible locations.
