We had a very nice stay at the camp, staff was very nice and making us feel very entouré. The scenery around the camp is very nice and what one is expecting from a game holiday. We had breakfast in the savanna prepared by our ranger with a feel of "Out of Africa". Our ranger Joseph was very friendly and... More

We flew into the River Camp for the last two days of our safari on honeymoon... to a very big welcome! The tent (if you can still call it a tent) was fantastic... luxurious and spacious with a shower under the stars! The biggest memory we have is the fantastic hospitality of the staff. They were never too far away... More

We stayed here in July of 2011 in a riverfront room. The great part of this room is being able to see and hear the hippos. The worst part of this room is that your so close to the hippos that you'll loose most of your sleep. But I would choose this room category over the others as the reason... More

We were here for our anniversary eve. We had lovely welcoming committee in the form of May, Manager and Stanley with refreshing towels and a chilled lemonade! Very welcome after a grueling drive to the Camp. The camp itself is located over a tributary of the Grumeti River, abounding with hippos who grunt loudly to welcome you! The lounge and... More

We stayed at Grumeti Camp for 3 nights in mid June. This was when the migration was taking place in the area. We landed at the nearby airport, and our Abercrombie and Kent driver, Clement, met us and took us immediately to the river, where we watched the interaction between the crocodiles and the wildebeest. This was an amazing experience,... More

Stayed here for two nights at the beginning of a 10 day safari. As with all the &Beyond lodges this one was amazing. The direct interaction with wildlife at the camp was incredible; Hippos splashing about in front of the lodge and then snorting past our tent at night, the occassional croc sighting, the resident Kingfisher who loved posing in...

This fabulous lodge is not simply one of the many in the Serengeti. It is UNIQUE, both in its style but above all in its superb location along a byway of the Grumeti river. From the luxury tented accommodations, there is a full-time spectacle of river hippos. So often they came right up to the front of the tented rooms,... More

This "And Beyond" tented camp is by the River Grumeti which is home to hippos who grunt, snort and frolic all day right in front of you!! Their noise could get to light sleepers at night. At times they came and sat out on the banks of the river and we could watch them from the raised platform of the... More

We stayed at Grumeti Camp at the end of a 2 week safari in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. We loved the location of the camp on the river as well as the design and feel of the camp. It was relaxing and the staff was gracious. We loved sitting in the lounge and patio facing the river with the... More

Grumeti made an excellent contrast to &Beyond's Klein Campa as it is in a totally different area and there is an enormous hippo pod right in front of the camp. Various animales especially dik-dik and other animales came into into the camp at all hours. The level of guiding was excellent.The food was also very good. The tents were comfortable... More
