Grumeti River Camp:Serengeti Tanzania

Grumeti River Camp is situated in the untouched seclusion of a remote valley in western corridor of the Serengeti, this splendid tented camp overlooks a bywater of the Grumeti River where wildebeest plunge through the waters, running the gauntlet of gigantic crocodiles, on their annual migration. At Grumeti, hippos greet you through the watery carpet of lilies and the spectacular pied coats of Colobus monkeys flash through the bird-filled riverine trees. Even at night, the wild pulse of Africa is mesmerising, when the nocturnal orchestra of owls, bats and galagos is punctuated by the primeval sounds of lion and hyena.

The whimsical sweep of flamboyant tents under thatch and the vibrancy of kente cloth and local sculptured furnishings bring alive the excitement and romance of Africa. Each of the 10 spacious twin -bedded tents, complete with en-suite bathrooms, lies along the banks of the river and hippo pools. Interpretive game drives explore the Serengeti Savannahs and woodlands, which boast the largest mass of free-ranging animals on earth, including wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, eland and giraffe as well as some of the highest densities of cheetah in Africa, huge prides of lion and solitary leopards. And at night, around a starlit banquet, stories are shared of the day's game sighting and guests' wide-eyed experience of the majesty and exhilaration of wild Africa.
