Experience The Nostalgia Of A Bygone Era At Pioneer Camp On The Serengeti Plains
Serengeti Pioneer Camp is themed after the original safari camps of the 1930s, a nostalgic era that excites and interests a few.
Located in the central region of the Serengeti within an area called the Moru Kopjes, an area where one gets to view the great migration but also the "Big 5".
Built on the slopes of a kopje, the camp offers guests wonderful views out over the surrounding National Park teeming with wildlife and birdlife. The views are up there with the best that the Serengeti and Masai Mara can offer.
Serengeti Pioneer Camp is ultra-stylish in an old-fashioned style, and attention to detail is excellent all the way from the main guest areas to the private suites. An exceptional camp by any stretch of the imagination, perfect for small families, couples and single travellers alike.

The suites (and the camp) are decorated and furnished in a 1930's style with a neutral colour scheme blended with dark wooden furniture.
A two-bedroomed family suite is available for those on a Serengeti safari with the family in tow.
