Overview

Located in the exclusive Singita Grumeti Reserve, Northern Tanzania, Singita Faru Faru offers a high end safari experience with stylish, comfortable facilities and superb game viewing.

The main areas of this contemporary lodge are open air and comprise two swimming pools, outdoor dining areas and lounge with television area and bar. The facilities are extensive and include a spa, gym, wine cellar, boutique shop and gallery.

Situated on a renowned migratory route, it is safe to say guests here will not be disappointed by the game viewing. Over one million wildebeest pass through the reserve during migration each year with the best times to see the main migration being May to June, and October to November. Game drives are led twice daily by expert rangers as well as walking safaris, and more unusually, horseback safaris and night safaris.

Faru Faru has only 9 suites, housing up to 22 guests on an exclusive basis. In addition to the 7 one-bedroom suites, there is a family suite, plus a two-bedroom suite with a private infinity pool. Beautifully furnished with natural materials and colours, all the rooms are ensuite and spacious. Large windows and outdoor seating allow guests to take in the surrounding scenery and wildlife from the comfort of their rooms.

For families with young children this is an unbeatable choice. Unusually, children of all ages are welcome at Singita Faru Faru and there are no age restrictions on game drives. A number of educational activities are organised to keep children busy, along with a ‘Mini Rangers Course’ which teaches them about their African surroundings. Such a family friendly atmosphere is a big plus for families with younger children looking to find a safari that is inclusive of the whole family. Babysitting services are also available.

The Singita Reserve is known for its exclusivity and high quality accommodation so a high price tag should be expected for any visit to this area. A flawless facility in an excellent location, Singita Faru Faru is a winning choice for those looking for a top-end safari experience.

  • Thank you, Lisa! Our trip was wonderful even with the weather disruption. We loved seeing so many different parts of the country, meeting people and experiencing the culture. The desert was surely a highlight for our boys and the creativity and artisanship of everything from food to crafts were a highlight for me. A special shout out to our guide and driver, they became a special part of our trip and we will forever be grateful for meeting them and learning from them. I cannot believe we had to wait three years for this adventure but it was certainly worth the wait! Thanks for all your help building the itinerary, modifying it and troubleshooting during our stay.

  • Hi Lisa and everyone at Tourdust,
    We've had a wonderful time on our holiday and wanted to pass our appreciation to you. Everything has been expertly planned and executed, allowing us to enjoy the holiday to its fullest. Special appreciation to Muhammed, Ibrahim, and Omar, our Atlas guide, cook, and muleteer, who couldn't have done more for us and were just generally wonderful and hardworking. Riad Hanane is a perfect base in Marrakech to complement the trekking as it's ina less touristy area of the medina, which we appreciated. The staff and accomodation was superb.Thank you again for a trip to remember!
    Bob, May, Grace, and Lucas

  • Hello Lisa. We came back from our trip two weeks ago now so I am sending this email much later than I wanted to. Nevertheless, what I wanted to say was thank you very much for helping us organise an amazing trip. Our days in Mafia Island to celebrate my 50th birthday were exactly what I wanted them to be: a fantastic time with the family doing activities that we all love and enjoy in a relaxing, unusual, beautiful place full of sun, surrounded by water, wildlife and friendly people. We swam with whale sharks, did a lot of snorkeling, had two picnics on a beautiful sand bank, watched the sunset over the sea, did a bird watching excursion and tried scuba diving.
    All merit to you because Pole Pole in Mafia Island was your recommendation. I never heard of Mafia Island before and didn't consider Tanzania to start with. It was an amazing place to stay: friendly, relaxed, beautiful, comfortable, with great food and fantastic service. Thanks not only for finding the place but also for your patience as we prepared the trip and I explored options and decided what I wanted. All went incredibly well (places, transfers, flights) and we had a very memorable time together that we will all remember forever - as we still do the safari trip to South Africa you organised for us 5 years ago.
    I cannot wait to plan another trip! I am already thinking about where and when. Hopefully no pandemic will get in the way this time. And I will come to you as my favourite travel agent.
    I copy in this message the Tourdust office because I want them to know how good you are and how much I appreciated the different trips you organised for us (including the trip to India for my parents that was cancelled due to Covid). I cannot thank you enough :o)
    Kind regards, Carol
