Fodor's Expert Review Serengeti Pioneer Camp
Serengeti National Park, Mara, Tanzania
Perched like a crow nest up in the hills overlooking the Moru Kopjes, the plush lodge showcases the expansive grasslands of the Serengeti, while the tents are generously dotted throughout a tranquil forest along the hillside; a large family tent option caters to those looking for a special family safari experience. Harking back to a 1930's style, the enormous luxury tents have that natural, classic safari feel, with copper and brass fittings, soft linens, and a traditional writers desk. Guides are passionate about their work and provide extensive knowledge on the area without coming off as regurgitating information.
PROS
- small plunge pools to cool off in after a dusty day adventuring
- camp location is intimate and romantically inviting
- exquisite food and guiding
CONS
- wildlife (big cats) will be close, so steel your nerves at night
- steep steps to get to the main lounge area
- game vehicles are not the traditional open sides (but it helps with the tsetse flies)
