EnquireNamiri Plains Camp is a stylish high quality authentic mobile tented camp in a remote location on the grass plains of Serengeti Central. Located near the Serengeti National Park in the eastern corner of the Serengeti, Namiri plains has a high ratio of predator sightings, including cheetah, leopard and lion especially around the Kopjes in addition to being a great place to view the main migration of wildebeest and zebra with hardly any other vehicle traffic.
Reports from when the camp was built in 2014 suggested this area was home to over 100 lions, 20 cheetahs and several leopards. The Camp is excellently located for bit cat sightings. Activities are centres aroung game drives. Walking safaris are available, but they take more the form of nature walks rather than an adventurous walking safari.
The small camp provides an authentic safari experience with animals such as lions and elephants passing through it during the night. At the heart of the camp are a pair of open sided tents containing the lounge and dining areas leading out to a campfire. The guest accommodation is 6 spacious tents with private bathrooms and veranda's looking out over the sweeping Namiri plains.
Families are welcome (children from 5 years old) and there is a family tent that sleeps 4. There are no specific activities for children and children below the age of 12 must share a tent with an adult. (Walking safari's here can only be done by children from 16 years old). It is important to note that the camp is not fenced and animals can wander through camp. Whilst it is true that the wildlife tends to stay away from humans and camps, parents will need to keep a close eye on children and not allow them to wander off or play independently.
It was FANTASTIC! Beautifully organised, everything worked like clockwork. We agreed that we had the best support team ever (and we have experience) - all delightful, very professional and nothing was too much bother.
It clearly couldn't have been a better route, such a wonderful mix of landscapes. And plenty of acclimatisation time. Nonetheless, I was glad of my summit oxygen.
Kit excellent. Double good mattresses made for most comfortable trek camping ever. Tents v good. Mess tent pretty windproof, which was vital for enjoyment. Best camp loo ever!
My favourite day was Shira Cathedral. Amazing.

Hi Lisa,
The safari trip was excellent! The stay, the food and the people were all very nice. We were happy to have Ryan and Stanley as our game drive guides they brought us up close to the animals and Ryan gave very good information throughout.
Would definitely recommend to friends who are interested in safaris :)
Also, thanks much for your help, particularly keeping the room for my Brother and his wife they’ve enjoyed the safari very much too!
Best regards,
Woan Chyi

We had a fantastic time and all the arrangements worked perfectly.
We were very impressed with the quality and service levels of all 4 locations visited and it was truly a holiday of a lifetime.
Thank you to you and to Lisa for giving us this experience.
Particular highlights for us – really the whole experience, but of particular impact:
Breathtaking scenery at Cathedral Peak Hotel
Rhino Ridge game drives incredible, thanks to guide (we had their head guide, Hala, who’s knowledge, enthusiasm, kindness, interaction, ability to spot wildlife was out of this world)
Luxury of Rhino Ridge (shower, food, views, service)
Immersion in nature, torch lit meal on last night and beach trip at Kosi Forest Lodge
Level of service, quality of food throughout
