The redesigned Sayari Mara Camp re-opened in June 2009 as the first permanant tented camp within this stunning area of the far north Serengeti.
The redesigned Sayari Mara Camp re-opened in June 2009 as the first permanant tented camp within this stunning area of the far north Serengeti.
This is an area of outstanding beauty with endless rolling plains and riverine woodlands which are home to lion, leopard, cheetah, elephant, large herds of antelope and many other animals.
The stunning Mara River, filled with hippos and crocodiles, cuts through this region of the Serengeti and hosts one of the greatest spectacles nature has to offer: the dramatic wildebeest crossings of the Mara River in the months August to November.
Sayari Camp’s 15 luxury tents are split into 2 wings- one with 9 and one with 6 tents all of which are raised on wooden platforms to offer a spacious and extremely comfortable stay. Both wings have their own entertainment and hosting tent making it possible to book each wing exclusively for groups or families.
All of these unique tents offer panoramic views through glass sliding doors and windows or you can relax on the private wooden deck where a large sofa/day bed and table and chairs are set up.
The tents are very spacious and are equipped with contemporary, comfortable furniture. The en suite bathroom has a flush toilet, indoor shower, double stone hand basins, as well as a free standing bath.
The camps’ central area consists of a large, comfortable lounge with an ‘all day’ bar service, rock swimming pool and fire place as well as two ‘chill out’ areas under canvas slightly away for the main lounge to give a quiet area to read a book or bird watch.
Worth a special mention is the uniquely designed Honeymoon Suite which boasts not only one rock bath but two – one indoor and one outdoor, positioned in a secluded corner close to the raised wooden deck. A private butler looks after guests and will set up private meals under the stars or offer any services as required.
We visited this camp just as it re-opened and it is top quality. The location is stunning and the camp is so comfortable and relaxing that a longer than normal stay of 4 or 5 nights is a definite option.

I am just back from Tanzania and wanted to thank you very much for a fantastic itinerary. I loved all the accommodation choices made, all the connecting flights worked well and the guide was superb. I had a great time and let me know if you want to get some more feedback on any of the properties suggested by you and also Pongwe Beach which excellent.
Many thanks for a truly great holiday! Nyerere National Park was a great success as we saw the wild dogs on 2 occasions and some great lion kills. In fact we saw a pride of 10 lion including cubs within 10 mins of landing in the Nyerere National Park! Zanzibar was wonderful! The sunshine hotel was beautiful and the staff were lovely.
The welcome and kindness and generosity we have received, in all of our camps and stops has been tremendous. Although we have both travelled a lot over our years together, we both agree this holiday has been outstanding, and one of the best experiences of our lives.
Thank you for organising a fabulous holiday for us – memories of which will last a lifetime. We have arrived back completely awed by Tanzania and Zanzibar. We saw the all the wildlife we could possibly wish to see. Our driver was charming and looked after us brilliantly. Lodges were excellent and food fantastic.
