Usawa Serengeti. Wilderness Safaris has now expanded into Tanzania. And they have done so with style. Following the famed Great Migration of the Serengeti National Park, a magnificent mobile tented camp was established. The camp travels more than other migration camps, providing an extremely unique experience, and you will have front-row seats as the drama unfolds away from the crowds.

Mobile yet absolutely luxurious, and most importantly, the eight camp locations are perfectly positioned in the Serengeti’s approved walking zone, allowing guided tours to begin immediately from the campgrounds. This is in addition to game driving, birdwatching, and astronomy.
Usawa means ‘balance’ in Swahili, and we believe the stars are aligned with this offering, which prioritizes comfort and action.

Wilderness Usawa Serengeti Mobile Camp: The Facts

Wilderness Usawa Serengeti is intimate, exclusive, and extraordinary, with six en-suite safari tents that can accommodate 12 people each. Because the setup is fully transportable, no permanent fixtures are left behind when the camp relocates, leaving only a small environmental footprint. Following the ever-moving mega-herds throughout the year in crucial areas, guests will only find out where the camp will be two weeks before departure.

While most migration camps travel between two or three predetermined areas in the Serengeti, Usawa’s eight locations are perfectly positioned in regions that not only allow you to observe the grandeur of the migration firsthand, but also provide you with seclusion and intimacy that many national parks do not offer.

As with all Wilderness-run camps, the guides provide really unforgettable guest experiences. In addition to wildlife drives, the Usawa locations provide guided walks, exploratory birdwatching, and a popular pastime: stargazing.

Being under canvas is something that a Serengeti Safari should revolve around. Nothing quite compares to hearing lions roar or hippos honk at night. Mobile campgrounds enable you to immerse yourself in nature in ways that permanent lodges do not. Giving you the true ‘Out of Africa’ experience that attracts so many travelers to East Africa.

The campgrounds run on solar power, and the rooms have rechargeable lighting and charging stations, as well as Wi-Fi and hot water.

Wilderness Usawa Serengeti welcomes children aged 6 and above, but those under 16 must share a room with an adult. To accommodate children under the age of six, the camp must be reserved exclusively for them.
