Official Description (provided by the hotel):: If you were to visit only one place in the Serengeti, it should be here. This is no idle boast; the iconic Kogakuria kopje in northern Serengeti. A few years ago the Tanzanian government chose a handful of responsible companies to build small permanent lodges in this remote sector of the Serengeti. Nomad Tanzania was offered the prime site and Lamai Serengeti now sits tucked amongst the rocks of Kogakuria Kopje with panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. Beautifully designed open-fronted rooms, a spacious lounge and clear pool provide an ideal place to escape to for some relaxation in between your wildlife adventures, for both families, groups and couples.The area boasts year-round fantastic game viewing, including the Big 5, and between July and November, the wildebeest migration moves through, crossing the Mara River in dramatic fashion just 20mins from the lodge. ... more less

“The subtle difference between being safe and feeling safe”

Reviewed 5 April 2013 via mobile

The camp enjoys a stunning location with amazing views of the Serengeti. The whole place is beautifully designed and maintained, and the huts are spacious with impressive decor. Food was tasty, fresh and well presented. Our guide (Emmanuel) was extremely skilled and we experienced with him the best game drives of our whole two weeks stay in Tanzania. Still our... More

“Serengeti dream come true”

Reviewed 12 February 2013

The Serengeti is indeed a unique part of the world and no better way to see it than from the beautiful Lamai Serengeti camp. It would have been a treat to just sit outside the lovely and very comfortable room on the kopje (hill) or the pretty main dining/lounge area and contemplate the breathtaking view of the plains in front...

“Best Safari Lodge in the Serengeti”

Reviewed 3 February 2013

We've been on several trips to Africa and have stayed at a variety of permanent and tent camps, and by comparison, this camp was the most impressive. The LOCATION of the camp cannot be beat. Views from the camp are amazing since the camp is on a rocky hill that overlooks the wilderness. SERVICE from the property manager (Sasha and... More

“Fantastic”

Reviewed 25 January 2013

The perfect ending to our 10 night safari in Tanzania. The migration was in the south when we came here so it was quite peaceful with plenty of resident game for viewing. Although I could have been happy just sitting in our room for the view is the best I have ever seen. Thanks to the staff and our hosts,... More
