Serengeti Migration Camp

One really sees how remote Serengeti Migration Camp is while landing on a strip of dirt in the middle of absolutely nowhere! It was an incredible experience to see this part of Africa. Each room of Serengeti Migration Camp is an independent elevated lodge with canvas sides and a wrap-around porch. Our lodge was located right along the Grumeti River where 80 hippos live. We could hear the hippos grunting during the night as they grazed right outside our room! The rooms were once again complete luxury. We loved every aspect of them! Our day exploring the Serengeti was magnificent! We felt like true explorers. Our guide, Alex, and our fellow travelers’ guide Moses kept in contact with one another as we scanned the area looking for animals. We saw so many different types of animals, it was hard to keep track! We came across a pride of 26 lions, which was phenomenal. Alex asked what else we’d like to see. We told him we’d love to see a leopard and a cheetah. I didn’t have much hope, but Alex and Moses came through! We saw one of each. Wow! That night we had a beautiful dinner by the river with lanterns hanging from the trees. There was a guard watching for hippos while we ate. It was exciting and beautiful at the same time. The next morning Alex took us for a walk along the river to see the hippos. He was very informative as he educated us about the hippos and other animals. We loved how he taught us about the habits of animals during our time with him.
