Nomad Lamai Serengeti Camp

Nomad Lamai Serengeti Camp

Nomad Lamai Serengeti Camp is a luxurious safari retreat perched atop the Kogakuria Kopje in the northern Serengeti. This prime location offers panoramic views of the surrounding plains and the Mara River valley, making it an exceptional vantage point for observing the Great Migration and resident wildlife. The camp’s design seamlessly integrates with the natural environment, featuring open fronted rooms that allow guests to immerse themselves in the sights and sounds of the Serengeti.

The camp comprises two distinct accommodations: the Main Camp with eight rooms and the exclusive use Lamai Private Camp with four rooms. Each room is thoughtfully designed with en-suite bathrooms, private verandas, and handcrafted furnishings that reflect the local culture and landscape. The communal areas, including the lounge, dining area, and swimming pool, provide comfortable spaces for relaxation and socializing between safari activities.

Nomad Lamai Serengeti Camp offers a range of safari experiences, including game drives, guided walking safaris, and cultural visits. Its proximity to the Mara River makes it an ideal base for witnessing the dramatic river crossings during the migration season.

Best Time to Visit

The optimal time to visit Nomad Lamai Serengeti Camp is from late July to October, coinciding with the Great Migration’s arrival in the northern Serengeti. During this period, guests have the opportunity to witness the iconic river crossings and the abundance of wildlife that follows the herds. However, the camp is open year round, and the northern Serengeti offers excellent game viewing throughout the year, with resident predators and diverse wildlife present even outside the migration season.

How to Get There

The most convenient way to reach Nomad Lamai Serengeti Camp is by air. Scheduled flights are available from Arusha and other major Tanzanian airports to the Kogatende Airstrip, which is approximately a 45 minute drive from the camp. The drive from the airstrip to the camp offers an introduction to the region’s wildlife and landscapes.
