Sayari Camp

Sayari Camp is a seasonal camp that follows the great migration. It is located in Piaya, in the southern plains from January to April, moves to the Mara river area (north-western Serengeti) for June to September and is based in Soit Sambu in the north-eastern part of the Serengeti from October to mid January (the camp is closed during April and May, the season of the long rains).

The locations of the camp are all near the border of the national park (Mara just inside the park and Piaya and Soit Sambu just outside the park), to allow for the superior combination of top wildlife viewing and walking safaris and interaction with local cultures.

Central to the camp are two common tents. When the camp is occupied by multiple small groups, one tent will serve as a dining tent and the other one as a lounge, where drinks are served and safari stories are shared.

When a somewhat larger group (e.g., eight people) visits in the camp, one of the common tents can be made the exclusive lounging/dining tent for that group. The other tent will then be set up as a lounging/dining tent for the other guests of Sayari Camp. In the lounge tent a sea of cushions, a wide range of quality drinks and snacks, and a wealth of books make this a place where you can easily loose track of time.

Sayari Camp has 8 luxury tents. They are equipped with fully en-suite bathroom facilities.

Each tent has its own spacious private verandah, with a very comfortable couch and chairs, overlooking the Serengeti. Inside the tent, comfortable king-size beds with beautiful cloth and contemporary furniture give the tent a stylish yet homely feel. The spacious bathroom has a shower, double sinks and a ceramic flush toilet that is environmentally friendly.

Dining at Sayari Camp is intimate in the dining area, but can also be enjoyed privately under the millions of stars in the Serengeti sky. Either way, the amicable staff will prepare you a meal you wouldn’t dream possible in the middle of the camp’s remote wilderness locations.
