LAMAI SERENGETI

When it comes to an unforgettable African safari experience, few places rival Lamai Serengeti. Nestled amidst the pristine wilderness of Tanzania's Serengeti National Park, this exquisite eco-lodge offers more than just an adventure—it provides guests with an unrivalled sense of comfort and luxury.

Lamai Serengeti has a sensational location atop a vast granite kopje. During the day, there are unbeatable views of the plains below, and at night you feel like you’re sleeping in a giant’s rock garden.

Considered one of the Serengeti’s most stylish camps, and conveniently located just a few miles from the Mara River, and its famous crossing points, Lamai Serengeti stands as a testament to the harmonious blend of luxury and nature. Its guest accommodations, whether the spacious safari tents or opulent private suites, offer an idyllic retreat in the heart of the African wilderness. With its unparalleled beauty, impeccable service, and immersive experiences, Lamai Serengeti ensures an unforgettable safari adventure for all who visit.

Accommodation at Lamai Serengeti

Each of the twelve guest suites has been thoughtfully designed to blend seamlessly with the surrounding environment while providing utmost comfort.

Elevated on raised platforms, the open-fronted stone and thatch rooms are peppered around Kogakuria Kopje, a tumble of giant boulders that stands proud above the northern Serengeti grasslands. Each guest accommodation offers breathtaking views of the sweeping plains and offer a unique fusion of elegance and wilderness.

Every accommodation option is tastefully furnished with premium amenities and features, including comfortable king-size beds, spacious en-suite bathrooms with rainfall showers, and private outdoor areas. The elegant interiors blend contemporary design with authentic African influences, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Guests can relax in their private havens, soaking in the breathtaking views or enjoying a sundowner while marvelling at the abundant wildlife roaming freely in the distance.

This family-friendly camp welcomes children over 8 years, and allows bushwalking for 12 year old and above. Three of the suites offer child-safe annexes with adjoining twin room and sharing the bathroom. Private guides are available on request and are always a good idea for families travelling with younger ones.

The safari activities at Lamai are designed to provide you with an intimate and immersive wildlife experience. Led by experienced guides, you'll embark on thrilling safaris in custom-built, open-top vehicles that offer unobstructed views of the surrounding wilderness. Traverse the vast plains of the Serengeti ecosystem, dense forests, and winding riverbanks as you encounter an astonishing array of wildlife. From majestic lions and graceful giraffes to elusive leopards and playful elephants, every moment is a chance to witness the untamed beauty of nature up close.

Between June and October one of the most extraordinary natural phenomena in the world, the Great Migration, unfolds right before your eyes. Witness millions of wildebeest, zebras, and other herbivores as they embark on their epic journey in search of fresh grazing grounds. From July to October, the lodge is perfectly situated to offer you a front-row seat to this breathtaking spectacle. As the herds brave crocodile-infested rivers and treacherous terrains, you'll be captivated by the sheer magnitude and drama of this annual migration—an experience that will forever be etched in your memory.

For a more intimate and immersive encounter with nature, Lamai Serengeti offers walking safaris that allow you to explore the Serengeti on foot. Accompanied by highly knowledgeable guides, you'll venture into the wilderness, learning about the intricate ecosystems, identifying animal tracks, and discovering the smaller marvels often overlooked during game drives. Walking safaris provide a unique opportunity to connect with nature on a deeper level, hearing the sounds of the bush, feeling the earth beneath your feet, and gaining a profound appreciation for the intricate balance of life in the Serengeti.

This was our 4th trip to Africa and by far the best ever. All the details were properly handled; we had not flight problems or delays and the service provided by Safari Guru was outstanding. I would recommend them, and have to friends and family. We will be going back to Africa with the outstanding Staff of Safari Guru.

We recently returned from Kenya, had a fabulous safari designed by Deon de Villiers of Safari Guru. We had some wonderful sightings and the whole thing went without a single hiccup. The guides were excellent. Deon was so helpful in allowing us to reschedule several times due to COVID restrictions preventing travel. We visited Sirikoi in the Lewa Conservancy and Serian Ngare, Serian Nkorombo and Mara Plains at Masai Mara, each place offering a different experience, each special in its own way. Loved the rhinocerous at Lewa, giraffe giving birth at Ngare, hippopotamus at Nkorombo and cats at Mara Plains, and so so much more. We highly recommend Deon and the Safari Guru team.

We finally got to take our Kenya/Rwanda adventure with Safari Guru post pandemic. Our trip was a fantastic experience that immersed us in Africa. The holiday went as planned, everything was organised so we were gently steered from place to place, which we enjoyed as we found we weren't "travel fit" after sitting on sidelines for two years! Our lodges in Kenya were beautiful, nice and small, felt like you were part of a family, rather than a customer! Rwanda was a highlight, an amazing country with a shocking past that is moving forward beautifully. The advice from Deon to do two gorilla walks was perfect. Our first day we hiked in to mountain and when we got there the heavens opened and it didn't stop! The scouts found 6 gorillas for us to glimpse as they were hiding from rain too! We trekked down in the mud, rivers of water ending up bedraggled! It was a great experience but the next day was perfect! Beautiful blue skies, trekked up and gorillas were everywhere, sunning themselves and eating vigorously. Was awesome being so close and they couldn't care less! Would highly recommend safari Guru, they planned us a perfect holiday and are easy to contact with queries and answer promptly. Travelling on our own was great as each place we stayed, there were like travellers from around the world to socialise with. Thanks Deon and Ashley

I was completely blown away with the service I received from Safari Guru. We had a most marvellous holiday in South Africa, Botswana and Namibia. Everything went extremely well and the Wilderness team were excellent in looking after us at each of their safari camps. Well done to Deon and Ashley, Morag Cotsell

Had an amazing experience working with Deon and Safari Guru. My wife and I went into this trip thinking of it as a once in a lifetime experience. Because of our experience we have another trip in mind to bring our children so they can have the same amazing experience that we had. Thank you Deon! We look forward to seeing you again!

Safari Guru organized us an amazing journey in Namibia for our wedding anniversary; it will be long lasting and marvelous memories for years! We also greatly appreciated the dedication and support of Safari Guru's team during these challenging times of the Covid pandemic as they had to re-arrange 2 times our trip initially planned for 2020. Thanks and kudos to Deon and all at Safari Guru!

Botswana! What an incredible destination as we begin to travel again. This is a trip of a lifetime. The game drives were exhilarating, the people are friendly, the food fantastic, and the accommodations are meant to spoil you. Our trip was beautifully planned and executed by Deon De Villiers and his team at Safari Guru. They have been to every camp they recommend and tailor your safari experience to you. What else could you ask for! We will travel with them again and highly recommend Safari Guru to plan your next trip!
