From April to June, the time of the annual migration in the western corridor, you will enjoy the spectacular view of wildebeests traveling across the Serengeti.

Safari At Singita Sabora Tented Camp

Grumeti Reserves also has resident hoofed ungulates which populate it all through the year such as reedbuck, waterbuck, klipspringer, oribi, eland, topi, Coke’s hartebeest and many more.

Dining At Singita Sabora Tented Camp

The varied dining areas are breathtakingly romantic where dinner can be served beneath the bendy branches of a huge ''Sausage Tree" under the sky carpet of sweeping African stars illuminating in the moonlight, with soft lamp lights showing the way, and an intoxicating chorus of the sounds coming deep from the African wildlands. The Sabora dining experience is all about ensuring that you want absolutely everything when it comes to the mouth-watering dishes prepared and served through the day -- you better come with a hearty appetite.

As dawn breaks, AfricanMecca guests are roused with the fragrant smells of freshly brewed Tanzanian coffee and tea complemented with freshly baked rusks and taster biscuits.

You return to camp to the welcome sight of hot breakfast being prepared in an indoor bush kitchen, with everything from styled omelets, toasts, freshly baked cakes, fruit and cheese platters, waffles, potatoes, bacon, cereals, tea and coffee. Lunch is served on generous platters after you have had the chance to enjoy a quiet siesta after a guided bush walk on the Tanzanian plains with an experienced armed walking guide, or a relaxing treatment in the on-site relaxing spa.
