Singita Explore Camp

Location: Singita Explore Camp is set in the private Singita Grumeti Reserve, which borders the western corridor of the Serengeti. This 350,000-acre concession is exclusive to Singita guests, meaning you'll have access to one of the most wildlife-rich areas in Tanzania - without the crowds. The mobile camp moves seasonally within the reserve to stay close to the Great Migration, particularly around June and July when the herds flood through on their way north. The landscape here is classic Serengeti - open plains, acacia woodland, and river valleys - but with the added sense of wilderness and exclusivity that only a private reserve can offer.

Rooms: Singita Explore is a private-use mobile tented camp with between two and six guest tents, set up exclusively for each booking. It's a completely bespoke experience, with the full camp - including your private guide, staff, chef, and host - dedicated just to your group. The tents themselves are understated but beautifully styled, with large beds, plush bedding, en-suite bathrooms with hot bucket showers and flush loos, and shaded verandahs for quiet afternoons between drives. Every detail is considered, from custom-made campaign furniture to eco-friendly toiletries. It's a rare kind of luxury that is deeply immersive.

Amenities: What sets Singita Explore apart is the balance of refined service and total freedom. You have your own dedicated team, including a private chef who prepares fresh, beautifully presented meals based on your preferences. Dining can be as formal or informal as you like - a bush breakfast on the plains, a lantern-lit dinner by the fire, or a long, lazy lunch in the mess tent. It's an experience built around simplicity, exclusivity, and connection to nature, supported by the highest levels of service and attention.

Activities: Singita Explore Camp offers complete flexibility over your daily routine. Game drives are entirely private, let by top-tier Singita guides who know the Grumeti Reserve inside out. Wildlife viewing is exceptional - from predators and elephants to massive herds of wildebeest and zebra during the migration season. Because you're on private land, you can also enjoy walking safaris, off-road driving, and night drives - all activities not permitted in the national park itself. The results is a safari that feels far more immersive and wide-ranging than what's possible in most parts of the Serengeti.

Sustainability: Singita is widely recognised as one of Africa's leaders in sustainable tourism, and Explore Camp is a strong example of their conservation-driven model. The camp is completely solar powered and built for minimal impact, with a leave-no-trace approach to each mobile setup. Everything - from waste removal to water use - is carefully managed. But the real sustainability story lies in the broader Grumeti model: tourism directly funds conservation efforts, anti-poaching operations, and community development in the area. Staying at Singita Explore means contributing meaningfully to the long-term protection of the Serengeti ecosystem, while enjoying one of the most exclusive and considered safari experiences available.
