About the lodge

An overview of Ubuntu Migration Camp.

Ubuntu Migration Camp follows the colossal herds of wildebeest as they journey around the Serengeti. From the dramatic river crossings in the north to the fertile grasslands in the south where the wildebeest give birth, we set up camp nearby to ensure you’re always close to the action.

Highlights

  • Ubuntu Migration Camp tracks two waves of natural wildebeest movement, from the northern Serengeti to Kusini's southern Serengeti.
  • The mobile camp offers authentic tented accommodation to follow the flow of animals through Tanzania's Serengeti during the Great Migration.
  • Small, intimate, and homely, this is a hidden gem in the Serengeti Safari circuit.

You Should Know

  • Ubuntu Migration Camp is great for families and welcomes children over the age of 5. The camp includes a family tent.
  • Children under 12 should share a tent with an adult.
  • Ubuntu Camp is closed 15th March–14th June and 15th November–14th December.

The Details

In Swahili, ‘Ubuntu’ means kindness and generosity towards others – and this small, intimate camp certainly lives up to its name. The close-knit team of friendly staff and experienced guides ensures that warm hospitality, great food, and a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere remain at the heart of Ubuntu Camp. The open-plan main area spills into the surrounding wilderness, offering impressive views of the landscape that stretch to the horizon. You can sink into a book or spend a lazy afternoon watching the wildlife on the sprawling plains. Breakfast and lunch are served under canvas in the dining tent just steps away, while dinner is often enjoyed under the stars by the glowing embers of the campfire, accompanied by the Serengeti’s nocturnal wildlife soundtrack.

The traditional tented camp is designed to leave no trace. It can be quickly disassembled and transported to new locations, following the herds along their migration route. Every day, you will venture into the bush in search of wildlife such as lions or cheetahs drawn by the massive gatherings of prey. Over morning coffee, watch wildebeest males chasing each other or zebras playfully tussling. For an unforgettable sunrise, start your day with a hot-air balloon ride gliding above the plains.

Ubuntu Migration Camp features ten canvas safari tents, including one family tent. All tents have mesh side panels that let in natural light during the day and are fitted with king-sized or twin beds for a comfortable night’s sleep. The en suite bathrooms include hot-water bucket showers and flushing toilets. Spend your afternoons relaxing on your tent's porch, watching nearby herds or getting immersed in a good book.
