A night in a luxury Serengeti lodge or a one-of-a-kind tented camp counts among the many high points of a trip through Tanzania, and there is genuinely an option for every kind of traveller: permanent buildings right in the heart of the Serengeti, or luxury tented safari camps for a stay in the wild you won't forget. So how do you decide what suits your African trip best? That's where we come in. At Your Tanzania Trip we have spent years hand-picking the finest Serengeti lodges and other distinctive places to stay in Tanzania.
Lodge or camp in the Serengeti: which is best?
Pick a luxury Serengeti lodge or go for a tented camp: either way you can count on a comfortable, safe and, above all, unforgettable stay in the Serengeti. A Serengeti lodge is a permanent building inside the national park. Lodges often sit on large plots of land, giving privacy and exceptional comfort to anyone after a more luxurious take on the Serengeti.
A tented camp is luxurious too, though the facilities are a little more basic. Every Serengeti camp stay booked through Your Tanzania Trip includes your own tent with an en suite bathroom. The canvas walls are thin, but that is exactly what brings you so close to the wild side of Tanzania.
Sound of Silence: Five-star Safari Camp
The Sound of Silence ranks among the finest safari camps Your Tanzania Trip offers in the Serengeti. Set in the centre of the park, this Tanzanian tented resort has spacious tents of 50 square metres, and every guest sleeps on top-quality mattresses with fine linen and duvets. With the Serengeti as your soundtrack, the camp claims that a night here will be the best sleep you've ever had! Hot and cold running water is available, while round-the-clock electricity and Wi-Fi are powered by the camp's own solar installation.
Kubu Kubu: a luxury lodge in the Serengeti
If you'd like a touch more luxury on your Serengeti holiday, a lodge such as Kubu Kubu is among our top picks. Standing in the middle of the Serengeti's endless plains, Kubu Kubu offers breathtaking views from every stylish, comfortable room. Among its many other amenities are a large swimming pool, excellent dining spaces and skilled chefs, and attentive service around the clock is simply part of the package!
A Serengeti lodge also tends to be an excellent choice for families with children in Tanzania: there is more to keep the kids busy, and experienced staff make sure your safari outings go smoothly.
Total comfort in a permanent safari lodge, or a private tented resort somewhat off the beaten track: a night in the Serengeti is a once-in-a-lifetime experience either way.
