A Luxury Tented Camp in Tanzania
Camp Details
Experience the Great Migration from thiis award-winning boutique and romantic Sayari Camp in the northern Serengeti. Perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of the river crossings, Sayari offers a luxurious base for an exciting safari experience.
From July to October, the chaos of the migration engulfs the northern Serengeti, while from November to March the same area provides serene exclusivity amongst black rhino, resident cats, and very few other guests. Between walking safaris and twice-daily game drives, relax with a refreshing swim in our rim-flow pool, enjoy a soothing massage, or unwind on your private veranda with your binoculars close at hand as the northern Serengeti continues to delight.
At Sayari Camp, the 15 spacious and bright tented suites radiate comfort, boasting mahogany floors and king or twin beds with fine linens and colourful cushions. The luxurious bathrooms feature walk-in showers, free standing tubs overlooking the savannahs, and a private outdoor shower on your deck. You can relax on your large wraparound veranda with a book or cold drink while spotting passing wildlife. Two Retreats opened in 2023, providing a private and exclusive experience for families and groups. Complete with a dedicated chef, an experienced and knowledgeable guide and private safari vehicle, The Retreats offer an elevated level of flexibility and luxury.

Questions about Sayari Camp
Is it only worth coming for the river crossings?
Not at all. From July to October the migration engulfs the northern Serengeti and Sayari is well placed for the crossings, but from November to March the same area is quiet, with black rhino, resident cats and very few other guests. The two seasons offer genuinely different trips.
What are the Retreats?
Two Retreats opened in 2023 for families and groups wanting privacy, each with a dedicated chef, an experienced guide and a private safari vehicle. That gives a party its own timetable while keeping the run of the camp, which suits multi-generational travel particularly well.
What are the suites and the camp like?
Fifteen bright tented suites have mahogany floors, king or twin beds, walk-in showers, freestanding tubs looking over the savannah and a private outdoor shower on the deck, plus a large wraparound veranda. The camp also has a rim-flow pool, massages, a library focused on the local Kuria people and a solar-powered micro-brewery.
