LEMALA NANUKIE – SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK

Lemala Nanyukie is set in the eastern part of the Serengeti National Park – the camp is located a 45-minute drive east of the Seronera Airstrip in the park’s central region and is superbly located with outstanding views across endless plains. The camp sits on a grassy savanna dotted with rocky kopjes and shaded by ancient giant acacia trees.

With canvas walls, cathedral-like tented ceilings and broad hardwood decks, guests at Lemala Nanyukie can expect a light contemporary décor in a palette of dazzling whites and neutral colours, with warmth introduced by textured accessories, luxurious upholstery, wooden furnishings, and well-executed lighting.

This area of the Serengeti is crossed by the thrilling wildlife spectacle of the annual wildebeest migration, but also has high-density game-viewing at all times and is well-known for its large concentration of cats. As such Lemala Nanyukie will be open year-round, and safari activities like game drives and walks will be accompanied by Lemala’s highly-knowledgeable and experienced guides.
