À vivre

Set at the far northern end of Serengeti National Park, Akiba Kibwe sits directly on the path of the Great Migration as it heads toward the Mara River.

The Great Migration is in constant flux, moving north then south in an endless search for grazing, eventually circling back north to reach the very edge of the Serengeti/Mara border, where crocodile-filled rivers form a deadly corridor to the Mara's grasslands.

Akiba Kibwe embodies the true spirit of Out of Africa — an exclusive camp, reserved solely for a couple, a group of friends, or a family.

Layout

Meals are taken in separate tents, their flowing fabrics rippling in the African breeze. Menus are individually designed to suit guests' preferences, while a selection of South African wines, beers and soft drinks complements the dining experience. A full bar is always open.

The river forms an exciting backdrop and an alternative refuge to the surrounding short-grass plains and the kopje systems scattered across the northern valleys.

Rooms

Each tented room has a private bathroom and sweeping views over the plains.
