Lamai Serengeti is built directly into a granite kopje overlooking the Mara River’s Lamai Wedge, one of the most dramatically sited camps in the Serengeti, positioned to catch the migration at its most concentrated northern crossing points.
Rooms & Table
The Rooms
Suites built around and into the kopje’s natural rock formations, several with plunge pools, each with sweeping views over the surrounding plains.
Food & Service
A strong, understated dining programme served on decks built into the kopje itself, with panoramic views over the Mara River valley.
Activities
Game drives to the Mara River crossing points, walking safaris across the kopje’s surrounding terrain, and year-round game viewing in one of the Serengeti’s quieter, less-visited corners.
Wildlife & Photography
The Lamai Wedge sees some of the most concentrated river crossing activity anywhere along the Mara during migration season, alongside strong resident lion and leopard populations.
A Photographer's Note
The kopje’s elevation gives an unusually wide, layered view over the Mara River valley, useful for landscape-inclusive migration photography rather than tight action shots alone.
Conservation & Impact
Nomad Tanzania’s Serengeti properties fund the Serengeti de-snaring programme, one of the longest-running anti-poaching initiatives in the ecosystem.
