The Great Gnu Pursuit

CAMPS WE LOVE

Working with our partners on the ground in Kenya and Tanzania, we can ensure immersive access to the massive herds of wildebeest and their travelling companions and predators in the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem, at virtually any time of the year.

“No one can return from the Serengeti unchanged, for tawny lions will forever prowl our memory and great herds throng our imagination.” - George Schaller, Conservationist + Author

it's time for a life-changing adventure

Welcome to the Great Migration — “the greatest show on Earth.”

Though it encompasses two parks in two countries, the Serengeti-Mara is a single, closed ecosystem. The map below illustrates a typical migration year, though there are countless factors that affect when and where the herds decide to migrate.

UNCHARTED’s experts utilize intimate knowledge of the area, the best safari guides, and award-winning Outposts to custom-build our itineraries.

As just one of three camps currently operating within the Olare Orok Conservancy, you are essentially sharing an immense amount of land with only a small handful of fellow guests. In fact, if split between you, you would have 700 acres each!
