What to do
At Usawa you'll witness the breathtaking Great Migration and the captivating predator-prey interactions that make the Serengeti famous. Your expert guides ensure you have an unforgettable safari experience. Encounter remarkable wildlife, including lions, elephant, buffalo, wildebeest, giraffe, zebra, spotted and striped hyenas, cheetah and a diverse array of antelopes. For a more intimate experience, embark on a walking safari with an armed guide, or from a hot air balloon!
Planning your stay
The Serengeti changes character through the year. Southern plains, central valleys, western corridor and northern river country are different choices; we position a camp for your dates and interests rather than promising a particular herd movement.
A two- or three-night stay gives time to settle in, while extra nights can be valuable if the migration is a priority. Consider how flights and onward connections affect time in the field.
