Discover the charm of Mbuzi Mawe Tented Camp, where the rugged beauty of the central Serengeti’s landscape
envelops you in an atmosphere of tranquility and adventure. Part of the Serena group, known for its commitment to
luxury and conservation, this camp is a smaller, more personal outpost that provides an authentic safari experience
with all the comforts needed to enjoy the wild.
Surrounded by three-million-year-old granite formations, Mbuzi Mawe, or “rock goat” in Swahili, is perfectly
positioned to offer both solitude and spectacle. The camp’s tents are built on stone platforms, their thatched roofs
blending into the natural environment, ensuring that your stay feels like a part of the Serengeti itself. This location is
particularly magical during the migration seasons, making it a haven for those looking to witness one of nature’s
greatest shows.
The camp’s intimacy is reflected in its communal areas, where guests can gather to share stories by the fire pit or dine
under the stars. The dining tent, supported by stone and wood, creates a cozy yet open setting for meals, while the
bar offers a sociable space to enjoy a drink. With plans for a new swimming pool, the camp is set to become even
more appealing for families and those seeking relaxation after their safari adventures.
Location:
Situated away from the hustle of the main tourist routes, Mbuzi Mawe is nestled between Seronera and the northern
Serengeti. This makes it an ideal base for those exploring the park either way, although the game driving directly from
the camp can be limited, with the best wildlife viewing opportunities found by heading north or south. The camp’s
seclusion also means fewer crowds, enhancing the serene safari experience.
Accommodation:
Mbuzi Mawe offers 16 well-appointed tents, each providing a canvas sanctuary within the wilderness:
Tent Design: These spacious tents are close-knit, fostering a camp community feel, yet each offers a private deck with
views into the bush.
Interior Comfort: Furnished with dhow-wood, the tents feature queen-size beds, simple yet effective decor with
animal print cushions, and terracotta-tiled floors. The lighting and furnishings create a homely feel.
Bathroom Facilities: Each tent includes a fully-equipped bathroom with hot showers (thanks to solar heating), dual
basins, and all necessary amenities for comfort.
Utilities: With 24-hour electricity, you can charge your devices, use ceiling fans, and enjoy tea or coffee at your leisure.
Security at night is provided by askaris, ensuring your safety
