Overview of Kirimu Camp

Explore Africa’s best wildlife destination at Kirimu Camp, set in the vast, open plains of the Serengeti and nestled among Acacia forests. With few other camps in the vicinity, you will experience an interrupted slice of the Serengeti – all to yourself. Home to the famed Big Five, your guided safaris will guarantee exciting game viewing.

Derived from the Masai language, Serengeti means ‘endless plains’ and you will encounter cheetahs, prides of lions, astonishing bird life and the showstopping Wildebeest Migration. The best time to visit the Serengeti is between June and October to see the migration, about 2 million wildebeest, zebra and antelope migrate around the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem in search of fresh grazing. The treacherous river crossings are among the most sought-after moments where more than 1,5 million wildebeest charge through predator-dominated territory.

Relish in local tastes on a bush picnic or simply relax in the beauty of the silence. As the campsite is unfenced, the expert Kirimu team will escort you around camp. Fall asleep to the sound of lion roaring in the distance, or marvel at the carpet of stars visible – free from the city lights.
