With locations in both the central Seronera region and the northern Mara River area, Malaika Camps ensures you’re always in the heart of the action, whether you’re seeking abundant year-round wildlife or the drama of the Great Migration River crossings.
Each elegant, tented suite is a private oasis, beautifully furnished with plush bedding and a spacious veranda where you can watch the sunrise over the plains. After an exhilarating game drive, you can cool off in the swimming pool, indulge in a gourmet meal, or gather around the campfire to share stories under a blanket of stars. From thrilling hot air balloon safaris to intimate bush dinners, Malaika Camps provides the perfect blend of luxury and adventure, inviting you to create memories that will last a lifetime.
Serengeti Bushtops is a high-end, permanent tented camp located on a hillside in the northern Serengeti.1 Its position provides stunning panoramic views of the sprawling plains and is especially well-known for being in close proximity to the Mara River, a key crossing point for the Great Migration.2 The camp is an ideal base for experiencing this world-famous wildlife spectacle, particularly from July to October.3
The camp consists of 12 spacious and luxurious tents, each featuring a private wooden deck with a sunken lounge and a hot tub.4 The tents are open on two sides, allowing for an immersive experience with the surrounding landscape.5 In addition to the private amenities, the camp offers a central lodge area with a lounge, a well-stocked bar with a wine wall, a swimming pool, and a library.6
Serengeti Bushtops offers a wide range of activities to complement its luxury amenities.7 Guests can embark on game drives in specially converted 4×4 vehicles, enjoy walking safaris, or opt for a hot air balloon safari for a unique perspective.8 The camp’s exceptional service, including a 24-hour private butler for each tent, and its commitment to providing a luxurious yet authentic bush experience are what set it apart.9
Before Namiri Plains existed, these vast grasslands in Tanzania were closed off to visitors for over 20 years to help the cheetah population recover. This was a hugely successful conservation effort, and today, the area is home to healthy populations of elephants, zebras, giraffes, and many other animals.
Namiri Plains is now a remote and much-loved camp that offers an excellent base for a safari. The camp’s design is beautiful, with graceful tented roofs, luxurious outdoor tubs, and a deep-blue pool overlooking the endless Serengeti landscape.
Located by the Ngare Nanyuki River, the camp offers plenty of ways to relax. You can spend a sultry afternoon by the pool, indulge at the spa, or find a good book in the library, which is filled with fascinating materials about big cats and conservation.
We highly recommend enjoying a cocktail on your private deck and watching the incredible cloud formations that only the Serengeti sky can produce. Completely refurbished in 2019, Namiri Plains runs entirely on solar power, although after each breathtaking sunset, you’ll find that the stars alone are enough to light up your night.
