About Elewana Serengeti Pioneer Camp

Inspired by the golden age of African exploration, Elewana Serengeti Pioneer Camp captures the spirit of the great early safari expeditions with its classic canvas tents, leather-and-canvas furniture, and period aesthetic. Located in the central and southern Serengeti, Pioneer Camp excels from January to May when the calving season and resident predator action are at their peak. Small and intimate with just eight tents, it offers a genuinely personal safari atmosphere. The Serengeti's vast open plains and acacia woodlands surround the camp, with big cat sightings — lion, cheetah, and leopard — a near-daily occurrence.

Why we like it

The most authentic 'Out of Africa' atmosphere in the Serengeti, combined with exceptional calving season action from January to May.
