We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the camp, the staff were friendly and helpful, the rooms clean and spacious, the food great as was the views and location. I loved the truly African setup with fire burning in the evening and magical sunsets in the bush. There was just one problem... bedbugs! And lots of them. It made sleeping very... More

At first we were sceptic about spending the night in a tent a few yards away from where we saw a pride of lions.. But, soon we were made very comfortable and safe. The staff are very attentive, helpful and joyous. The food was real good, and even excellent considering we were camping in the wilderness. The tents, beds, and... More

We stayed here 2 nights in late October. Earlier reviews of the camp were mixed so I was a bit concerned about what we would find. However, we were very pleased overall about our stay. The tents were nice size and had full working bathrooms attached. We had no problems with hot water. We enjoyed sitting on the porch with... More

Wow! Where to begin? The accommodations and staff at Ikoma Bush Camp are absolutely the best! From the friendly greeting every morning at breakfast, to the meals and daily lunch boxes, to the final escort by guides to our tents every evening...Ikoma is a wonderful experience. We awakened to birds singing every morning and watched impala and zebra wander by... More

we loved this place. it is by far the best place we stayed in the Serengeti area. because it's not officially in the Serengeti national park, but the Ikoma game reserve you can actually be outdoors, the tented camps were just perfect, we were in the middle of wildlife, but yet, in the back of our nice and simple, but...

After reading all the reviews, I was very concerned about staying here especially since I was staying for 5 days. I was surprised at what I found there. TENTS were spacious with nice sized bathrooms. Mosquito nets were intact and bedding wss clean and comfortable. I figured out early in the trip to take my showers at night if I... More

We stayed at ikoma bush camp for two nights and found the place very silent and relaxing.The staff were very friendly and did their best to make our stay comfortable.The sound of the hyenas around the rooms in the night is an unforgettable experience.The view of the sunrise from the rooms in lovely.

We spent 4 nights at Ikoma and thought it was a great place to stay. The tents all have ensuites, are basic but very clean and the showers were hot. The staff are excellent, very friendly with a wonderful sense of humour and the Manager welcomes feedback on ways to improve. One day we opted to have a 'rest day'... More

Water as promised in the evening and morning (but nor during the day -you must remember it is a tented camp in the nowhere-land). Great restaurant, very lovely staff. Helpful manager. Expensive internet connection (5 USD per 30... More

We spent 2 nights in the Ikoma Bush Camp and both were excellent. We had no problems with electricity or water, but we were out until late afternoon both days. People were very accomodating and our server/waiter was exceptional friendly and talkative. We love the setting of sitting outside and watching the animals in the morning or sitting at the... More
