Home / Accommodation / Serengeti Explorer Lodge

Serengeti Explorer Lodge is one of the finest luxury accommodations in Serengeti National Park, offering an exceptional blend of comfort, service, and breathtaking views. Located in the western corridor of the Serengeti, this elegant lodge provides a fantastic base for exploring the park while enjoying a high-end safari experience.

The Serengeti Explorer is a luxurious lodge situated within the world-famous Serengeti National Park. Perched on the Nyaburo Hills in the south-central Serengeti, it offers spectacular panoramic views across the endless plains and serves as a perfect vantage point for witnessing the Great Migration when the herds pass through this area between March and June.

The lodge features 70 beautifully appointed en-suite rooms and 5 exclusive suites, all designed with elegant ochre-toned décor that reflects the natural beauty of the Serengeti. Each room includes comfortable beds, a modern bathroom with a rain shower, and a private balcony where guests can relax while taking in the stunning wilderness views.

For relaxation after a day of game drives, guests can enjoy the lodge’s large infinity swimming pool overlooking the plains or indulge in a rejuvenating massage in the wellness room or from the comfort of their own room. Dining at Serengeti Explorer is equally impressive, with multiple options including a main restaurant featuring live cooking stations, a traditional boma restaurant serving Swahili and African specialties, a poolside bistro and bar, and a stylish lobby café and deli. For a truly memorable experience, guests can even arrange a private dinner in the lodge’s extensive wine cellar.

What makes Serengeti Explorer Lodge stand out is its combination of luxurious facilities, excellent service, and one of the most spectacular viewpoints in the Serengeti, creating an unforgettable safari stay.

    Safari May 2026

    This company exceeded everything we’d hoped for. From the start, the tour operator had everything covered — a detailed itinerary laid out well in advance, quick responses to any questions, and a genuine attentiveness that made the whole thing feel effortless. The accommodation was seriously impressive. Not what I was expecting at all — comfortable, well-appointed, and luxurious. We also spent time right in the heart of the bush. A proper treat. The two people who really made this trip were our guide Mariki and photographer Agnes. Mariki’s knowledge of the bush and animal behaviour is something else — he always seemed to know exactly where to go, and his instincts paid off every single time. Agnes has a brilliant eye and captured shots we could never have got ourselves. As for the wildlife — we saw far more than we ever imagined we would. Elephants, lions, leopard, buffalo, giraffe, zebra, hippos — the lot. As a first safari, I couldn’t have asked for more. Would recommend without hesitation.

    Great Experience with Tanzania Safari Experience

    We had an amazing safari with Tanzania Safari Experience, and honestly the whole trip was put together really well by Laurent and his team. From our first message to the last day, they were easy to reach, quick to reply, and clear about everything. The plan made sense, the timing was smooth, and we didn’t have to stress about anything. Uncle J was a big part of what made it special. He knows the parks incredibly well and seems to notice things before anyone else. He’d position the vehicle perfectly for photos and often got us to sightings before the crowds built up. We were lucky to see [your highlights: migration / lions / cheetahs / elephants / a crossing], and every drive felt exciting and different. The vehicle was comfortable and in good shape, and everything ran on schedule. If you’re looking for a well-organized safari with a great guide, I’d definitely recommend Tanzania Safari Experience.

    An absolutely brilliant tour / travel company

    What can I say. How do you explain PERFECTION. I will try. From the outset of our trip Ramadhan and Laurent were excellent. We gave them our requirements and budget and they prepared a program that was outstanding. The whole safari went like clockwork. We were met and briefed by Ramadhan on our arrival and introduced to our driver and guide extraordinar Ngoi. We visited Tarangier, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and the Ngorongoro Crater and Zanzibar. Absolutely brilliant trip, we saw the most extraordinary game. All the accommodation arranged for us was magnificent, especially the tented camps, where we were visited by a lion and elephant, scary but exhilarating. So if you are looking for an unforgettable experience look no further than Laurent and Ramadhan from Tanzania Safari Experience. They truly put clients first and foremost and deliver on their promises. Cheers from a very satisfied Chris and Terri Harvey
