Singita Mara River Camp
Singita Mara River Camp
Singita Mara River Camp is one of the luxury and most fine lodge in Africa and not just Tanzania. This camp was opened in 2012 and I located on the bank of River Mara. This place is the best place to stay in northern Serengeti to watch the Wildebeests migration crossing the Mara River around July to November. The Singita Mara River Camp experience does come at a high price. Each of the Tents has great views onto the river and is in close proximity to the wildebeest crossing.
The camp can be accessed through Lamai Airstrip and you can charter a flight from any area around the Country and in east Africa. All tents have clear views of the Mara river and its sits just close to it.
The Singita Mara River Camp it built on a raised platform to give you the altitude you need to get views of the Serengeti plains and the wildlife. The camp is a tented one but with a luxury touch and this gives it a great charm. The tents are furnished with suite facilities.
Although Mara River Tented Camp is not in a private concession, it is comparable in style, design, and quality with its sister properties. It also – and perhaps most importantly – shares their commitment to giving visitors an authentic safari experience in a secluded location.
Singita Mara is the only camp in this area for most of the year, although a couple of small seasonal camps arrive during the wildebeest migration, between July and October. With permission from TANAPA, Singita’s guides have created game-drive routes from scratch. This makes for a really offbeat safari experience, on relatively uncharted routes, with very few other visitors.
The whole camp is designed in the Bohemian-chic fashion with splashes of bold colour, that has become synonymous with Singita properties. Using natural and recycled materials wherever possible, Singita Mara was styled by South African interior design company Cécile & Boyd. A huge amount of thought has gone into the detail, from the modern African wall art, to the cushions, baskets and beadwork. We loved the combination of contemporary design and traditional materials.
The main thing you can do at this camp other than enjoying the views is doing game drives in open luxury land cruisers. The walking safari is also possible but limited.
Although safari here is good year round, the absolute best time to visit is between July and October when the Wildebeest of the Great Migration will be attempting to cross the watery Gauntlet of the Great Mara River on which the Camp sits. This is one of the best wonders of nature there is in the world.
