Welcome to the Serengeti
Legend has it that the word Serengeti emanates from the people who have occupied this pristine land for aeons–the Maasai. Roughly translated, it means the endless plains, or “the place where the land runs on forever”. Proclaimed in 1952, and covering 14,763 km2 (5,700 sq mi) – an area larger than Connecticut or Montenegro – in the eastern Mara Region of northern Tanzania, the Serengeti National Park is revered by nature-lovers worldwide as one of the most populous wildlife destinations.
Game Drive
Setting out each day in the company of an experienced and qualified guide, the twice-daily game drives promise guests a fascinating insight into the Serengeti ecosystem, while traveling in our comfortable, custom-made safari vehicles. Whether witnessing the patient stalk of a lioness, or peaceful pastoral panoramas populated by vast herds of antelope, these excursions create the memories that epitomize safari.
Serengeti is a treasure trove of biodiversity and natural beauty, offering visitors a once-in-a-lifetime safari experience.

Charlotte B2023-10-25Parfait ! Accueil à la fois luxueux et très chaleureux, au cœur de la réserve, avec les rugissements de lion en s'endormant...Tentes très confortables, restaurant très bon, serveur/ses attentionnés. Nous étions un groupe de 8 dont 2 enfants. Parfait !Ashley H2023-10-20Perfect accommodations for friends trip I stayed at Acacia Serengeti back in August, during the dry season and truly loved this resort! The staff and service was really considerate and we loved the chef and her food! We even got a special lunch one day and it was this amazing chicken with a peanut sauce. Our driver, Walter, ate dinner with us each night and was great company! We were 3 friends from college traveling together and we got our own queens even though we expected twins so that was a huge plus! Would definitely go back and stay at this resort.Cecilia V2023-08-31Magica emozione Abbiamo trascorso 2 notti in questo campo tendato, è stato fantastico! Le tende sono pulitissime, grandi, con letti enormi e comodissimi forniti di zanzariere (io sono stata ad agosto, per la Tanzania periodo invernale e non ho visto una zanzara). All’interna della tenda ci sono water e doccia. Come essere a casa … quasi ☺️. Cene e colazioni ricche. Personale molto disponibile. Ma la cosa magica del campo tendato è andare a dormire con un branco di decine di zebre a pochi metri, che poi durante la notte vengono a brucare attorno alle tende. Sentire i movimenti degli animali e sentirsi al sicuro, una grande emozione. Non si può fare un safari e non dormine in campi tendati, l’Acacia è consigliatissimo!Elizabeth C2023-08-28Acacia Rongai & Acacia Mara My husband and I had a wonderful stay at both Acaia’s Rongai & Mara Camps! Rongai: location was well located in central Sergenti with beautiful sunset views. We stayed here two non-consecutive nights, so we stayed in two different tents, both which were wonderful. The rooms were fully furnished with comfortable beds, bedding, towels, and toiletries. The full bathroom with private, flushing toilet rooms, and hot bucket shower were wonderful to have after a dusty safari day. The food at the restaurant was fresh and delicious. I have unique dietary restrictions (low-FODMAP) that the entire staff made sure to custom accommodate for all my meals. The entire staff was especially warm and friendly. Mara: we stayed here one night in between our two nights at Rongai. It has all the same great features and I have the same comments as the Rongai camp except that the food was a little less good (could have just been our options that day), and the bathroom was a little less well-appointed (shower curtain for toilet room privacy rather than wood door line Rongai, more utilitarian looking than nicely designed), but honestly without comparing the two Mara was still an incredibly comfortable stay. The manager was SO friendly at Mara. It also was my birthday during our stay and the whole staff did a lovely dance parade and cake for me to celebrate! So incredibly thoughtful. All in all, highly recommend both camps!Eric W2023-07-29Great experience The service is excellent and the staff is so helpful and nice. We need hair dryer and they deliver it quickly to our room. All necessary equipments have been provided. The food here is very good and we enjoy the meals here so much.Dörte Z2023-07-21Magisch!!! Ein wunderschönes Erlebnis diese Lodge. Wir waren 3 Tage als Paar in der zentralen Serengeti und haben hier übernachtet. Unser Logdezelt nannte sich Tanzanite. Als wir nach einem anstrengenden, aber aufregenden schönen Tag hier ankamen, wurden wir so sehr herzlich mit einem wundervollen Volkslied begrüßt, eine Erfrischung gereicht. Man hat uns, in der luxuriösen Bar alles erklärt. Beispielsweise wie es mit den Duschen und dem Walki Talki funktioniert, das man braucht um im Dunkeln vom Personal abgeholt zu werden oder anderweitig Hilfe benötigt. Ein ganz besonderer Service. Das Abendessen und das Frühstück waren ausgezeichnet. Ein gemütliches Lagerfeuer sorgt für einen rundum romantischen Abend. Die Bar war sehr gut ausgestattet und die Lunchpakete frisch und gut. Die Ausstattung des Zeltes ist sehr luxuriös und großzügig. Ein tolles Badezimmer, wunderbares komfortables Himmelbett. Am Morgen stand eine Giraffe direkt vor unserem Zelt. Ein Traum! Ein besonderes Dankeschön gilt dem überaus freundlichen und zuvorkommenden Personal der Lodge. Wir können dieses Camp nur weiterempfehlen.Corine M2023-06-24Authentic and fantastic!!! My stay was amazing! It is right in the Serengeti reserve and our tent was just a mile from where we sighted a leopard running up the hill! The “tent” was luxurious with a full size bed and flushing toilets and inside shower with hot water! Our safety was ensured. The dinner was very authentic and plentiful. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful- thank you Jeffrey for your joyful welcome!Colten J2023-06-15Honeymoon in the Serengeti We had an amazing 3 night stay! The food, people, and view of the Serengeti were all amazing. We loved falling asleep to the sounds of nature and couldn’t have asked for a better stay. We could even hear hyenas and lions at night which was such a cool experience.Martina C2023-06-09Amazing experience! The place is amazing! Lovely staff and delicious traditional and international food! Facilities are very comfortable and clean! You can enjoy the best sunset and sunrise in Segerengeti! A true Tanzanian experience, we had a great time! Highly recommended!!!
