Heady days in the Serengeti are a masterclass in wildlife immersion, gracefully bookended by bespoke game drives led by your Bush 2 City Safari Director. With an intuitive mastery of the terrain, your guide orchestrates the search for the savanna’s apex predators—from prides of lion and sprinting cheetah to the shadow-dwelling leopard. Thanks to the region’s permanent underground springs, the landscape serves as a prestigious watering hole for elephant, zebra, and reedbuck, offering consistent, high-drama viewing from the comfort of your suite.
For those who seek a deeper connection, walking safaris reveal the intricate tapestry of the ecosystem, from rare avifauna to the fascinating world of the Serengeti’s smaller inhabitants. Elevate your perspective with a private hot air balloon expedition for an awe-inspiring macro-view of the plains, or engage in a high-level briefing with a researcher from The Serengeti Cheetah Project for an exclusive insider’s vantage point.
Photography enthusiasts will find their sanctuary in our custom-engineered photographic vehicles, featuring 360-degree swivel seating and precision camera rests designed to capture the perfect shot. Between expeditions, retreat to the private spa or the infinity pool, where the scenic deck offers a tranquil space to reflect on the day’s discoveries.
Enviably positioned in the soul of the Serengeti, Kubu Kubu Tented Lodge is a sanctuary of refined elegance. From this prime vantage point, the park’s most storied landscapes—the ancient Maasai Kopjes, the Seronera Valley, and the dramatic Grumeti River—are all within effortless reach.
Whether you are witnessing the thundering Great Migration from the privacy of your own terrace or soaking in the endless golden savannahs from the edge of the infinity pool, the experience is one of pure immersion. Between adventures, find your balance with a bespoke treatment in our tranquil spa. At Kubu Kubu, the raw beauty of the wild meets the sophisticated comforts of a world-class retreat.
The Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari Club offers a rare, heartwarming feature not found elsewhere: a remarkable Wildlife Rescue Center. Managed in partnership with the William Holden Wildlife Foundation, this facility is dedicated to the compassionate rehabilitation of animals found abandoned or injured in the wild.

For decades, it has served as a glamorous retreat for political icons and cinematic greats, with esteemed members like Sir Winston Churchill, Clark Gable, and John Wayne seeking respite in its luxurious embrace. The Club’s history is interwoven with fame, offering a truly distinguished escape defined by natural beauty and a powerful, enduring legacy.
