Guests can take part in morning and afternoon game drives, hot-air ballooning experiences and day trips to Lake Victoria.

Game drives

The camp’s location beside the river makes it ideal for sightings of dramatic river crossings when the Great Migration is in the area. Even when the Great Migration is not nearby you will be able to view spectacular wildlife and enjoy a more un-interrupted experience due to the lack of other vehicles. The Grumeti River provides a permanent water source and attracts large herds of buffalo and elephant, amongst other animals. The thickets near the camp are also home to the colobus monkeys, which cannot be seen anywhere else in the Serengeti.

Lake Vitoria full-day trip

This full-day trip takes you to the shores of Lake Victoria and offers a combination of wildlife adventures, sightseeing, fishing excursions and cultural insight. Following a drive through the Serengeti to the park gate, you will then be given the option to stop and learn about the work of the Africa Foundation at Lukungu Primary School. At Lake Victoria you can choose to set off on a fishing safari excursion, pay a visit to the traditional doctor, enjoy a local dance performance or simply take in the surrounding landscapes. A picnic lunch is served before your return journey. Minimum of 2 guests and one month’s notice required. Additional costs apply for this activity.
