A Classic Mobile Safari in the Serengeti
Serengeti National Park, Tanzania
Songa Migrational Camp operates across two remote locations within the Serengeti National Park, moving with the Great Migration between the southern plains and the northern Serengeti. This mobile safari approach allows guests to stay close to the herds throughout the year, offering a more immersive and well-timed Serengeti safari experience.
With just eight ensuite tents and a spacious family tent, the camp remains intimate and understated, focusing on comfort without losing its authentic safari feel. The tents are designed using raw, organic materials in earthy tones, creating a space that feels connected to the surrounding landscape. Each tent includes a king-sized bed, ensuite bathroom with shower and flushing loo, along with simple touches such as fans and light laundry service to enhance your stay.
Days are shaped around expertly guided game drives, tracking the movement of the Great Migration and the predators that follow. Meals are relaxed and flexible, enjoyed in shared dining areas or out in the bush, depending on the day’s safari plan. What stands out to us is the balance between simplicity and quality, supported by a warm and attentive team that makes the experience feel effortless.

WHY WE LOVE Songa Migrational Camp
Songa Migrational Camp offers a true mobile safari experience, positioning itself in both the southern and northern Serengeti to stay close to the Great Migration. This flexibility allows for more consistent wildlife viewing and a deeper connection to the rhythm of the plains.
When the camp is set up in the southern Serengeti, we highly recommend taking time to visit the Datoga community. This experience offers a rare opportunity to visit with one of Tanzania’s most traditional pastoralist groups and gain insight into their daily life and culture.
Insider’s Tip: Time your stay in the southern Serengeti between January and March to experience the calving season, when thousands of wildebeest give birth and predator activity is at its peak.
