Serengeti National Park, Tanzania
Set among the dramatic granite kopjes of the Wogakuria Hills in the Northern Serengeti, Lemala Kuria Hills offers privacy, elevation and exceptional access to one of Africa’s most iconic wildlife spectacles. Its location near the Mara River places it within the main migration corridor between Tanzania’s Serengeti and Kenya’s Maasai Mara.
The camp’s 15 glass-fronted tented suites are elegantly designed, each featuring a super-king bed, contemporary interiors and spacious ensuite bathrooms. Private decks and plunge pools offer uninterrupted views across the surrounding savanna.

WHY WE LOVE Lemala Kuria Hills
Lemala Kuria Hills is ideally positioned near the Mara River, placing it within the main migration corridor between July and October. During this period, guests have access to dramatic river crossings as wildebeest and zebra move between the Serengeti and Maasai Mara.
Even outside peak crossing season, the Northern Serengeti offers excellent predator sightings, wide open landscapes and a quieter safari experience compared to the central Serengeti.
