Under canvas in the heart of the Serengeti's vast wilderness—what could be better? Nyasi Tented Camp delivers a truly authentic escape into the African wilds, where each day is filled with thrilling game drives, unforgettable wildlife encounters, and endless adventure. As night falls, romance takes centre stage under the stars, with campfire stories and the sounds of the bush all around you. Located in the Lamai Wedge of the Northern Serengeti, the camp offers unrivalled access to the Mara River—one of the best locations to witness the iconic wildebeest crossings. Here, you’ll have a front-row seat as over two million wildebeest, zebra, and Thomson’s gazelle sweep across the endless plains.
The camp features 6 en-suite tents and 2 family tents, each with two en-suite rooms and a shared lounge. Nyasi can be booked in its entirety or divided into two private “camps within a camp.” One half can operate as an exclusive-use camp—consisting of 2 rooms and 1 family suite—available from June 1 to October 31, 2026. The other half comprises 4 rooms and another family suite. Each side is fully self-contained with its own dining and lounge tents, ensuring maximum privacy. Enjoy tailored experiences including game drives, bush picnics, hot air balloon safaris, and full-day explorations. With a private guide and your own vehicle, you're free to discover the wild at your own pace.
Special offer: Book for 5 or 7 nights at any Legendary Expeditions lodge and camps and receive 20% off your accommodation. This offer is valid until 06 January - 19 December 2025. Terms and conditions apply.

Truly a once in a lifetime and unforgettable experience with our family. Very special times.
My husband and I travel quite a bit, but this trip fully exceeded any and all expectations. We knew it was going to be special, but nothing prepared us for the quality of experiences we had every day. The level of hospitality and the incredible people we met along the way made our honeymoon unforge…
We really had an absolutely fantastic trip from start to finish. As part of our trip, we did safari in three amazing locations: Tarangire, the Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti. Each location offered different landscapes and unique opportunities to see animals.
