Grumeti River Lodge

Grumeti River Lodge is located in the Western Serengeti, close to the Grumeti airstrip. This small, luxury tented camp is best visited in June and July, when the wildebeest migration moves through this area.

Natural materials are used to create unique and unexpected artworks both in the rooms and around the camp. All rooms overlook a hippo pond.

Grumeti, along with Klein's Camp and Ngorongoro Crater Lodge, is a CC Africa property, one of several in Northern Tanzania's national parks. The customer service of all CC Africa properties is impeccable, but it comes at a price.

A game drive package currently runs more than USD 600 per person per day during the high season. To visit Grumeti, Duma recommends flying to the Grumeti Airstrip and then being either transferred to the camp by Grumeti vehicles or your Duma guide. This camp is best booked on a game package basis. Although Grumeti has a small swimming pool, it is generally used only on special occasions. Also, this camp is more appropriate for honeymoons rather than family vacations.
