About the hotel

Anyone travelling to the Serengeti dreams of unforgettable wildlife encounters. Serengeti Bushtops Camp knows this well and has made it its mission to offer guests truly unique and exhilarating safari experiences. Its setting is made for exactly that. Set deep in the Serengeti, the camp brings guests as close to nature and wildlife as possible. The twelve spacious tents are luxuriously, stylishly and warmly appointed. They combine first-class safari experiences with exceptional comfort. Each tent is positioned to face the sunset, best enjoyed from its own expansive private veranda. It is not uncommon for both large and small animals to wander by. A wide range of safaris, walks and excursions also invite you to discover this extraordinary natural world and its remarkable inhabitants more deeply.

Serengeti Bushtops Camp

in our eyes

At Serengeti Bushtops Camp, “wild luxury” is brought to life in the most compelling way. The camp sits directly on the route of the annual wildebeest migration from June to October, allowing you to experience this extraordinary natural spectacle up close. After exhilarating game drives in an open vehicle, your own Jacuzzi awaits on the private terrace - perfect for unwinding with uninterrupted views of the wilderness. Whether hot-air balloon flights, safaris or soothing massages, nothing feels overlooked here.

Best time to travel

The best time to visit the Serengeti in Tanzania is from June to October. During this dry season, conditions are ideal for the famous wildlife migration, when millions of wildebeest and zebra move through the Serengeti into neighbouring Kenya’s Masai Mara. Days are warm and nights are fresh. Sparse vegetation and clear visibility allow for exceptional wildlife viewing and make it easier to follow the drama of the migration. These months also offer ideal conditions for exploring the Serengeti’s varied landscapes, from vast savannahs to dramatic rock formations and waterholes.

Destination region

Serengeti

The Serengeti, a world-famous national park and UNESCO World Heritage Site in Tanzania, is known for its endless plains, spectacular wildlife migrations and fiery sunsets. This iconic region offers families an unforgettable safari experience in one of the world’s most awe-inspiring landscapes.

A safari through the park is a wonderful opportunity to encounter the Big Five – lions, elephants, buffalo, leopards and rhino – as well as wildebeest, zebra and a host of other wildlife at close quarters. Particularly impressive is the Great Migration, when millions of wildebeest and zebra move across the Serengeti on their annual journey. For adventurous families, guided walks and hot-air balloon rides offer breathtaking views over the vast plains and wildlife from above. A visit to the local Maasai communities offers the chance to discover the fascinating culture and traditions of this proud people. In the evening, families can relax beneath the African night sky in comfortable safari lodges or tented camps and enjoy the unforgettable sounds of the wild.
