Usawa Serengeti
Serengeti & Northern TanzaniaUsawa Serengeti is a mobile safari camp that follows the movements of the Great Migration herds as they traverse the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. The luxurious, intimate camp sleeps 12 guests in six en-suite safari tents. True to its Swahili name meaning "balance," Usawa Serengeti strikes the perfect harmony between the drama of the Great Migration and the exclusivity of remote wilderness. The camp moves several times a year, ensuring guests are always positioned close to the herds while enjoying tranquil, less crowded areas of the park.
Despite its mobility, Usawa offers an intimate and private gateway to Tanzania’s most iconic safari destination. Solar-powered and sustainably built with an ultra-light environmental footprint, the camp seamlessly blends high end touches, exceptional service and an unfiltered connection to nature. The camp is available for sole-use bookings, making it perfect for families or groups looking for a tailored experience.
