Intimate Safari Camp in the Serengeti
After going on over 75 safaris all over Africa, we always suggest people to plan their safari adventure during low season also known as rainy season. This might not make a lot of sense so let us change your mind before you plan your safari trip.

For this trip we stayed at Nimali Serengeti, a collection we had never stayed with before but one that we will be visiting again in the future. This beautiful camp is an ideal size with just a few cottage, a nice common area with lots of space to relax, a fireplace and even a beautiful pool and all of this with a stunning view of the Serengeti National Park.
In East Africa especially, peak season has the best weather in the possibility to see the great migration between Tanzania and Kenya. This might sound great, but it is NOT worth it and here is why. During peak season, safari camp prices rises, there are hundreds of safari vehicle going on game drives at the same time every single day meaning that the animal always get surrounded. Good luck getting some nice photos. Yes, it is sunny but it is also very hot.
While in low season, you will save tons of money as safari camp rates are much lower, the weather in terms of temperature is lovely but yes it will be raining sometimes but not all day every day. Some pockets of rain here and there. And the most important, low attendance in all National Parks and Game Reserves. We had incredible elephants and lion sightings during this safari and we were alone the entire time. We saw less than five other safari vehicles each time we were on a game drive which was incredible. It felt like we were alone because we kind of were!
Keep in mind that the wildlife doesn't go anywhere during low season, they are still around. Apart from the wildebeest but trust us when we say that the great migration is not as magical as it may seem. Over a hundred safari trucks lined up and waiting for several hours under the burning sun for the animal to maybe cross is just not as fun as it looks on National Geographics...
