Mbono Tented Camp

Name: Mbono Tented Camp
Address: Tanzania, Serengeti

Go on a walking safari exploring the surroundings with a experienced guide.

Each tent has a private patio with furniture for relaxing in the privacy of your own tented suite.

Every tent has an inviting bed with romantic mosquito netting and fine bed linen.

Spend evenings around the fire exchanging stories of sightings you had during the day.

The camp has a natural aesthetic appeal with its simplistic luxury of neutral interiors designed to provide every comfort.

The landscape transitions from the infinite expanse of the short grass plains to whistling thornscrub.

The river meanders southwest to its confluence with the Simiyu River and finds its way eventually to Lake Victoria.

This camp is strategically positioned at the point where the river leaves the Serengeti National Park.

Evidence of ancient tribal cultures can be seen with a visit to the Twa rock paintings nearby that are unique to this area.

Mbono Tented Camp lies in the deep shade of the acacia forest that lines the banks of the Mbono River.

Overview of Mbono Tented Camp

Tanzania, Serengeti

Mbono Tented Camp nestles on the banks of the Mbono River, and with only six tented suites, you are assured an intimate and exclusive safari experience. This luxury tented camp is located in a private concession close to the Serengeti National Park, allowing you to experience the best of both worlds – access to one of East Africa's most famous wilderness areas and exclusive access to the concession so you can avoid the crowds. Each group has the luxury and convenience of their own private safari vehicle, and is accompanied on game drives by a dedicated and knowledgeable ranger.

The Serengeti is known for its abundant game, including all the apex predators and the Big 5. It is also the landscape that hosts a large portion of the annual Wildebeest Migration – one of nature's greatest spectacles. Tented suites are spacious, fitted with romantically-draped beds, private balcony with views of the riverine vegetation and generous en-suite bathrooms. Mbono Tented Camp offers the classic safari experience with extra touches, like high quality bed linen, lush bathroom amenities and romantic private dinners under the stars. Perfect for couples, Mbono is also great for intimate family getaways and can be booked on exclusive-use basis.
