Same it ranges from three-star levels to ultimate five-star luxury.

Mobile camp Safari

These small, intimate camps move around, following herds of migratory animals. Camp operators construct semi-permanent camps that are constructed in the open bush. There are no barriers and animals can roam free but these mobile camps are safe and guests’ safety is a top priority. The camps are fully serviced by permanent staff and the camps aim to offer up a luxury experience in the wilderness. Meals are served by a camp chef and eaten in the ambiance of Africa, water is heated by staff for bathing, and generators power the mobile camps. When staying in a tented camp, guests have the opportunity to truly connect with nature. December – April mobile tents are set in Ndutu areas, May to June – North and west Serengeti, July to October – North Serengeti.

Budget  Camping  Safari

Budget camping fits in the tented camps category. The experience is however completely different, making it deserve to be regarded separately.

You get to stay in public campsites, inside bivouac tents, sleeping on mattresses laid on the tent floor, or in sleeping bags. Basic washroom facilities are available on the public campsites and are shared by everyone at the campsite. Campsites are the most basic of accommodations in terms of facilities and amenities. However, out here you will most likely have the most authentic experience and get as close to nature as nowhere else.

There are public and private campsites.

Public campsite

At a public campsite, there may be other travelers camping on the same site as you. There is an ablution block with showers and toilets. While you share the ablution block with other campers, showers and toilets are arranged as single cabins. There will be a kitchen block where meals are prepared, and dishes washed by your camping crew.

Private campsite

A private campsite, is in essence just a bare field, cleared of vegetation – that’s it. There are no permanent structures, no buildings, and most importantly – no other people far and wide. All equipment and all food is brought by our team and nothing is left behind. The only thing that will separate you from nature and the wild, is the canvas of your tent.
