About Siringiti Migration Camp, Ndutu Site

Siringiti Migration Camp is a seasonal mobile camp that is set up at Ndutu in the southern Serengeti to coincide with the wildebeest calving season. Its position changes with the herds, so the experience is tied closely to the rhythm of the migration, and Lemala confirms the exact location for your dates.

Despite the temporary nature of the camp, the tents are anything but basic. The photographs show a rust-orange leather headboard, a patterned throw, a walk-in closet and a bathroom with a double vanity. Add a private deck at sunset and the picture is of real luxury under canvas.

Evenings centre on an open campfire on the plains, while the mess tent stands under dramatic skies. It is a camp for photographers and wildlife lovers who want to be exactly where the action is, with a comfortable bed waiting at the end of it.

  • Seasonal camp positioned for the southern Serengeti calving period
  • Tented suites with leather headboards and walk-in closets
  • En-suite bathroom vanity with double sinks inside the tent
  • Private tent decks with seating among the acacias
  • Open campfire gatherings on the Ndutu plains at dusk
  • Mess tent set directly on the open grassland

Setting

The camp is pitched at Ndutu in the southern Serengeti, an area of open short-grass plains and patches of acacia woodland near the shallow lake. In the calving season, herds gather here in large numbers, and predators follow. The photographs show wide skies and heavy cloud over flat ground. Expect a landscape that feels dramatic, open and full of movement during the right weeks.

Rooms and tents

Tents are furnished like small suites. One photograph shows a bedroom with a rust-orange leather headboard and a patterned throw, another a walk-in closet and a double-sink vanity in the en-suite. A private deck with seating sits among acacia trees. Expect comfortable, well-appointed canvas living. Ask us to confirm tent numbers, layouts and facilities, as mobile camps can vary.

Dining

Meals are served in the mess tent, which stands out on the open plains under a changeable sky. Expect refined camp cooking at breakfast, lunch and dinner, with evening drinks around the open campfire. Mobile camps work from limited supplies, so tell us about any dietary needs and allergies well ahead, and we will relay them to the camp.

Things to do from here

  • Game drives across the Ndutu plains
  • Photography outings during the calving season
  • Predator watching around the herds
  • Campfire evenings under open skies
  • Birdwatching around the acacia woodland

When to stay

The camp operates seasonally and is positioned for the calving period, which typically falls around January and February on the southern plains. These are among the best months for the southern Serengeti. The migration reaches the northern rivers from July to October, so the camp is not the choice for those months. Ask us to confirm operating dates for your year.

Good to know

  • This is a seasonal mobile camp, so Lemala confirms the current location and opening dates before you book.
  • Power and connectivity are typically limited at mobile camps, so expect to be largely offline.
  • Lemala arranges flights, transfers and game drives as part of your itinerary.
  • Wildlife is wild, and the movement of herds cannot be guaranteed, even in calving season.
