However with a fight from Arusha or Zanzibar our Tanzania Safari guide can leave one day before from Arusha to meet you the next day when you start your safari. We call it an empty run by the driver, and by booking a flight for you we can facilitate for you that Fly-in safari while staying at Serengeti Kati Kati Camp.

The camp is a well placed camp and it offers a simple experience right in the heart of the most famous park in Tanzania and world over; The Serengeti National Park. No doubt about it, that this region can become busy in the main season; Peak season from June to September but still the camp really allows for the budget to be kept to the manageable levels and so is somewhere that we at Tanzania Safari Supremacy do recommend in the months ranging from March to June and there after November to January when the area is abuzz with wildlife activity due to the presence of the wildebeests migration herds.

Serengeti Kati Kati Camp Activities

As mentioned above the Seronera River Valley is famous for a big concentration of wildlife in the whole of Serengeti and, as such, the main activity here is game driving, or game viewing if you wish to call it so. Several Kopjes (large granite boulders)  dot the horizon to the south of camp and this definitely a favorite stalking and hunting ground for big cats including the lions and leopards.

Let us arrange your next safari in Tanzania staying at the Serengeti Kati Kati Tented Camp.

The Camp is a fairly ‘standard camp’ as far as the layout is concerned and the tents are located uniformly from the other in a row form. This may not really give a great sense of privacy, but nonetheless the tents are located a good distance from each other and therefore you will still feel the privacy when you are in your room. The camp’s location and layout allows wildlife to wander freely, something that makes the experience even better.

Serengeti Kati Kati Camp Rooms

As explained this is a nice mid range camp and the Tents are the typical private canvass tented rooms with real bedding and beds, a private en suite bathrooms and flushing toilets.
