Mango Opinion
Sayari Camp is luxury permenant safari camp in the very North of the Serengeti. It is the place to be from July - October in hopes of witnessing the wildebeest migration as it moves through. This area is mountainous and gorgeous, less wide open plains. This area is a long way if you are driving - better to fly up even from the central Serengeti.
The award-winning Sayari camp is based in the north of Serengeti National Park, with a prime location to witness thousands of wildebeest crash across the Mara River as part of their Great Migration. Besides the herds, there’s a healthy population of predators, including lions and leopards. When the European migrant birds arrive, the number of bird species swells to 500, many of which can be spotted on game drives or walking safaris.
Overlooking the golden plains, our 15 bright and spacious suites have walk-in showers, al fresco tubs and verandas on which you can laze away the afternoon with a book. Sayari’s rim-flow pool is set between natural rock formations for guests to cool off in while watching elephants or zebras ambling past camp. After a dip, treat yourself to a calming massage before an afternoon game drive and sundowners around the campfire.
The camp’s latest upgrade includes a plush library and information center which incorporates a rich cultural focus on the colorful Kuria tribe who call the northern Serengeti home. Further additions include the striking Asilia Spa offering an array of treatment options, and an innovative solar-powered micro-brewery, the first of its kind in the bush
