Your own luxury home in Africa
Tucked away in the serene western reaches of the Serengeti, Grumeti Serengeti River Lodge embodies the very essence of Elspeth Huxley’s quote: a place untouched and teeming with life. Here, mornings begin with a symphony of birdsong and playful monkeys, a prelude to unforgettable game drives across the golden plains. As day fades, the grunts of hippos by the lodge’s lake lull you to sleep, punctuated by the occasional, thrilling roar of a lion – a perfect harmony described by Huxley. This luxurious lodge offers a traditional safari experience, reaching its peak during the awe-inspiring Great Migration, where millions of wildebeest and zebra brave the crocodile-infested Grumeti River in a spectacle of nature.

Imagine waking up in one of Grumeti Serengeti’s 10 luxurious tented suites, nestled along a riverine forest. Each suite boasts captivating views of a hippo-filled oxbow lake and features beautiful décor in calming African pastels. Unwind in your en suite bathroom or take a refreshing outdoor shower. Stay connected with Wi-Fi or simply relax on your commodious veranda. Gather for meals on the expansive deck, overlooking the ever-active Grumeti River. As night falls, traditional jikos, or fire pits, cast a warm glow. Breathe in the cool African air, the scent of wilderness filling your senses, and experience the same contentment Ernest Hemingway described – a feeling of pure joy under the vast African sky.
Grumeti Serengeti occupies a prime location within the Serengeti-Maasai Mara ecosystem, a true haven for wildlife enthusiasts. Often and rightfully dubbed the “earthly capital of free-ranging wildlife,” this vast landscape offers an unparalleled safari experience. Imagine venturing into riverine forests teeming with life, or traversing the seemingly endless plains dotted with unique kopjes – each a microcosm of its ecosystem. Prepare to be awestruck, much like Herman Melville on his Pacific voyage, where he felt overwhelmed by the wonders of the natural world. Lions, hyenas, elephants, and giraffes are just a few of the over 55 large mammals you might encounter. The skies come alive with over 500 bird species, and during the Great Migration, the sheer volume of wildlife on the move creates a spectacle unlike any other.
In the heart of Zanzibar’s Stone Town, you’ll discover a charming maze of bazaars, bicycles, bas-reliefs, and benches. Stone benches, or bazara, line the narrow streets, perfect for people-watching. This UNESCO World Heritage site offers a captivating experience of the idyllic East African island, rich in culture, coffee, spices, and luxurious accommodations like the Park Hyatt, majestically perched on Shangani Beach.
From the hotel, you can easily explore the town’s attractions on foot: the lush Forodhani Gardens with its vibrant street food scene, the Old Fort which has served various purposes since 1699, the Old Dispensary, the Peace Memorial, and the Palace Museums. The bustling spice markets are filled with fragrant, colorful wares, including some of the finest coffee in the world. You might also find beautiful Tanzanian jewelry and visit the birthplace of Farrokh Bulsara, also known as Freddie Mercury of Queen.
No visit is complete without admiring the famous Zanzibari doors, ornately carved wooden masterpieces from the 19th century that are a true sensory delight in Stone Town.
Modernity meets elegance at the stunningly redesigned Serengeti Explorer. Here, fresh juice bars and yoga decks blend seamlessly with cutting-edge clean-energy features, all set against the tranquil backdrop of the Serengeti. Overlooking vast kopje-studded plains, your stay in the Nyaboro Hills offers a contemporary twist on traditional safari aesthetics. This sleek, reimagined sanctuary provides exclusive access to the extraordinary wildlife of the Serengeti through our luxurious game drives. Expect to encounter the Big Five — leopard, Cape buffalo, rhino, elephant, and magnificent pride of lions. Nestled in a secluded part of this iconic ecosystem, Serengeti Explorer Lodge is an unparalleled adventure base.
Nestled beside the entrance to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Neptune Ngorongoro is the gateway to a lush haven where wildebeests and zebras, along with their predators, begin their epic migration into the Serengeti-Maasai Mara ecosystem. A short, winding drive from the gate takes you to the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater—one of the most exhilarating drives on earth. From its peak, you can gaze down upon 100 pristine square miles of former lava lake, now a serene grassland and forest, home to over 25,000 large mammals. Descend a few thousand feet to the caldera’s floor and prepare for the spectacle of a lifetime.
