Four days and three nights at Mapito Safari Camp in the western Serengeti, from US$5,200 per person sharing with park fees and return flights included.

Sail Safaris DMC plans safaris across Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya and Tanzania, and we have built this short Serengeti stay with the flights already in place. You fly from Arusha or Kilimanjaro to Seronera, and your own guide and private Land Cruiser are waiting at the airstrip.

Mapito sits in the Ikoma Wildlife Management Area, a wildlife corridor beside the Ikoma Gate and home to two resident lion prides. You drive here or in the Serengeti National Park, morning and evening or a full day out, and there are fewer vehicles than on the busy park roads. Night drives run in the Wildlife Management Area, which the park does not allow.

Back at camp, every tented suite is air conditioned and the roof retracts for a night under the stars, with telescopes set up for stargazing. A shared pool looks out over the plains.

Included: return flights, park and concession fees, airstrip transfers, three nights in a 1-Bedroom Tented Suite, all meals and drinks excluding premium wines and spirits, unlimited private game drives, the Boma, laundry and local taxes.
Not included: night drives (US$175), the balloon flight (US$600), spa treatments and gratuities.

Prices per person, park fees and flights included:
1 November to 15 December 2026: US$5,500 sharing, was US$7,350. Single US$7,500.
1 February to 31 March 2027: US$5,700 sharing, was US$7,700. Single US$7,900.
1 April to 31 May 2027: US$5,200 sharing, was US$6,950. Single US$7,100.

Book by 15 December 2026 for stays from 1 November to 15 December 2026, or 1 February to 31 May 2027, subject to availability.

The campfire is already crackling when the evening drive comes in, and the dust of the plains is still settling. Under the Euclea trees the lamps come on in the mess tent, and the leather sofas smell of smoke and canvas.

Lemala Mara is a mobile tented camp with twelve tents in Tanzania, set up in the northern Serengeti from June to October, about 40 minutes by road from Kogatende Airstrip. We place it among our Distinguished Camps and Lodges.

Why we love it: the camp moves with the seasons, so for these months home is a tented camp under the trees of the northern Serengeti, far from the crowds.

In our experience, Lemala Mara suits travellers who want long days on the plains, with picnic breakfasts and lunches packed for full day game drives. Two of the tents have two bedrooms, made for friends and families travelling together, and children are welcome. The time to stay is while the camp is north, June to October, when in season the herds cross the Mara River. Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed.

In our experience, the first question on a Maasai Mara stay is where the camp sits: inside the national reserve, or in one of the conservancies beside it.

Among our Most Exclusive Addresses, Rekero Camp is inside the reserve, with nine tents overlooking the Talek River, while Mahali Mzuri has twelve tents in the Olare Motorogi Conservancy. Among our Distinguished Camps and Lodges, Governors' Camp is inside the reserve on the Mara River, and Saruni Mara is in the Mara North Conservancy.

Planning a 2027 safari? These are the five things we see make or break a journey across Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya and Tanzania.

1. Permits first, and early. A Uganda gorilla permit is US$800, or US$600 in April, May and November. Rwanda's is US$1,500. Kibale chimpanzee tracking rises to US$300 on 1 January 2027. For permit dates, begin nine to eighteen months ahead. Fees are set by UWA and RDB and confirmed at booking.
2. The right month in the right region. The Serengeti calving usually peaks in late January and February in the south; the river crossings fall between July and October in the north.
3. Paperwork. Since 5 October 2026 Kenya requires its own government travel health insurance, bought inside the eTA application; a home policy does not replace it. Since 1 October 2026 mainland Tanzania requires NIC inbound insurance at US$44 per visitor. Uganda no longer requires a yellow fever certificate for entry, though we still advise carrying one for onward travel.
4. Road or air. We never plan a road leg over six hours.
5. Where you sleep. Inside the park or just outside it changes every morning of the trip.

Sail Safaris DMC plans private safaris across Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya and Tanzania from our offices in Entebbe and Arusha, and we build each route around real availability rather than a wish list.

Save this for the day you start planning 2027.

Late in the day the rock around the pool still holds the sun's warmth, and the kopjes darken against the grassy savannah as the light goes.

Nimali Mara is tucked into the kopjes in the extreme north of the Serengeti, close to the border with Kenya, where the Mara River runs through grassy savannah and rolling hills dotted with acacia trees.

There are eight tented suites and two honeymoon suites, with private decks looking out over the Serengeti. An infinity pool set within the natural rock formations is the place to cool down in the heat of the day. Bush dinners, sundowners and spa treatments are on offer. We fly you into Kogatende Airstrip, followed by a 35 minute road transfer.

In our experience, Mara River crossings by the wildebeest migration peak between July and October, though timing varies each year and no crossing is ever promised.

We place it among our Most Exclusive Addresses.

Angama Mara sits on the edge of the Oloololo Escarpment, 1,000 feet above the plains. At Rekero the deck overlooks a crossing point on the Talek River. At Governors' Camp the tents overlook the Mara River.

Part 2 of Where to Go on Safari in 2027 is the Maasai Mara: the national reserve, and the conservancies beside it. Eighteen places to stay: twelve Most Exclusive Addresses and six Distinguished Camps and Lodges, each named with its area.

The herds usually cross between July and October, though the rains decide the timing. Resident wildlife is usually present through the rest of the year. We never promise a sighting; we plan the setting, the camp and the pace around you.

Early in the day the veranda is still cool, and the plains run out flat and pale in every direction as the first warmth of the day comes off the grass.

Serengeti Sametu Camp is on the eastern edge of the central Serengeti, near the Ngare Nanyuki River, about 60 minutes by air from Arusha to Seronera. We place it among our Distinguished Camps and Lodges.

Sail Safaris DMC designs and operates journeys from our bases in Entebbe and Arusha. On the road, our team runs our own Land Cruiser fleet, with lead guides for Spanish and French speaking guests. We chose this model so the value of that work stays with people on the ground.

5% of our profits go to Batwa Empowerment Village, Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, rural school sponsorship and an antipoaching support pool.

On a green hillside in Nkwenda Village, Bwindi, brick walls rose inside a frame of timber scaffolding, and when the scaffolding came down, a finished building of brick and pale blue render stood in its place.

This is the Batwa Community Medical Centre. The build was led by Tomas Tumwesigye, one of the founders of Batwa Empowerment Village, and brought together our guests, the Village and well wishers from across the tourism industry. Sail Safaris DMC contributed US$20,000 toward it. That is the power of tourism, and of a safari done right.

Batwa Empowerment Village is our primary beneficiary partner in the region. The Batwa are Bwindi's first people, displaced to the forest margins when Bwindi and Mgahinga were gazetted for gorilla conservation. When a journey includes time with Batwa hosts, we arrange it ahead with named hosts, as an encounter and never a spectacle.

We also sponsor 162 students at three primary schools in Uganda: 26 at Saint Mathew and 55 at Bwindi Plus in Buhoma, and 81 at Guardian Primary in Jinja. In Bwindi we support Ride 4 a Woman, where women build skills and income through weaving, sewing and hospitality. For wildlife, we support Gorilla Doctors, Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary and an antipoaching support pool. In Queen Elizabeth National Park, Kyambura Gorge Lodge was converted from a coffee store as part of the Kyambura Gorge Ecotourism project, and its chefs, guides and hosts work hand in hand behind the scenes to make our guests' trips a success.

The bath was drawn by late afternoon, and through the canvas I could hear the wind moving over the grass towards Makoma Hill. Later the lounge smelt of woodsmoke and coffee, and the plains outside went from gold to grey.

Nimali Serengeti sits close to Makoma Hill in the central Serengeti, with twelve tented suites, two of them joined for families. We place it among our Most Exclusive Addresses.

Lunch was laid under an acacia, and the plains ran gold in every direction with nothing moving but the heat. That night, under the linen canopy, I lay awake to calls from far out in the grass.

Mila, Auberge Safari, is in the Nyasirori in the western corridor of the Serengeti, close to the Grumeti River, with five tented rooms and one family unit. It is about an hour by game drive from Grumeti Airstrip. We place it among our Most Exclusive Addresses. Every stay includes a private vehicle and guide.
