Sayari Camp
Sayari Camp
Sayari Camp is a luxury tented camp run by Asilia Africa in the remote northern Serengeti, just a short drive from the Mara River. From July to October this is the setting for the most dramatic moments of the Great Migration, as vast herds of wildebeest and zebra plunge across the river past waiting crocodiles, and Sayari's location lets guests reach the crossing points early and stay long. Outside migration season the north is remarkably quiet, with resident lion, leopard, cheetah, elephant and buffalo, and some of the least crowded game viewing anywhere in the Serengeti. The camp's spacious tents are designed for comfort, with large beds, en-suite bathrooms and private verandas looking out over the plains, and there is a swimming pool, a lounge and dining areas where guides share stories of the day. Sayari is open year-round and makes an excellent base for photographers and anyone who wants to witness a river crossing. We can include Sayari Camp in a migration-focused itinerary, often combined with the central or southern Serengeti.
