Wow, I cannot say enough about our experience! From the moment our guide, Barrick, picked us up from the airstrip until the day he dropped us off, we were treated like VIPs. I loved the cup of coffee he treated us to as soon as we landed! Davide was our assigned butler and he did everything possible to ensure our stay was comfortable. He had coffee waiting for us every morning and worked with the chef on alternate meals when I had trouble adjusting to the food (not the camp’s issue, this was 100% my issue). Jonas, the general manager, was so kind and frequently checked in to ensure our stay was going well. Barrick went above and beyond as our private guide, and we managed to see 4 of the big 5. Because of his knowledge, he was able to get us pretty close to so many animals, including a pride of lions, cheetahs and the leopard. It’s so clear he loves his job and takes his client’s experience seriously. The rooms are so nice - very spacious with private outdoor space. Admittedly the first night it was a bit unsettling to hear the hyenas right outside our tent but that is part of the experience. We never felt unsafe and we appreciated the attention to our safety. We even had a pair of lions visiting one night during supper! Thank you Jonas, Davide, Barrick and the entire team for truly making our Serengeti safari a dream experience!

Had an amazing trip to the Serengeti with my family. Our resort, the Sametu Camp by Karina Camos & Lodges was great. Thank you especially to our host Ramadhan, but also to the rest of the staff. The accommodations were great and the food excellent. I would recommend them to anyone visiting Tanazania!

The Serengeti Sametu camp was an incredible place—beautiful, clean, and with amazing views. On top of that, our stay was perfect with the exceptional service from Ramadhan. He was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always made sure we had everything we needed to celebrate our anniversary. My husband Abdelkader and I highly recommend this camp and Ramadhan’s service if you’re staying here

This place is amazing. The service is impeccable, the place is gorgeous, and the restaurant serves amazing food. This is truly a luxury experience. On top of all that, it's very close to lots of wildlife. There was a leopard when we first arrived in a nearby tree, Cape Buffalo near the camp one night, and a 15min drive to lions.

I had a fantastic time at Sametu Camp in Central Serengeti. My “room” was fantastic, location was great, food was great, service was great and all the staff made sure my stay was as pleasant as possible. There is basically no phone reception at all in the area so the free wifi was a saviour to keep in contact with family and friends. Well done everyone.

Where do I begin? The location - Amazing! Not only can you see herds of zebras, elephants and buffaloes grazing out in the open while sitting on your deck having coffee, but we actually saw a lioness right outside our tent on two nights. We woke up when we heard grunting and rustling close by and went to the french windows. We drew teh curtains back and there she was looking right at us. She stared for a few seconds and turned around and walked away. There is night patrol on the property and they flash their lights periodically to warn predators away. The property is not fenced and basically built right in the middle of what would otherwise be a game drive area. So apparently animals wonder in all the time. Truly thrilling! The tents - So luxurious. The bathrooms are fantastic. It is an experience in itself to take a shower with the shower area having half transparent glass walls and looking right out at the buffaloes. The housekeeping was excellent with the comfy beds made each night with mosquito nets enclosing them. The staff - 10/10 stars. The managers - Scott and Jonas, and our server - Johnson, and everyone else was super sweet and warm and welcoming. We had a fantastic time chatting with them as we came back from our game drives each evening. The chef was Indian and we got to bond with him over our shared roots. The best part - They gave us a surprise with a veritable feast for Diwali complete with our Indian cuisine and delicacies, and topped it off with a cake and a local dance celebration. It felt like we were celebrating Diwali at home in India. Truly touched! Another highlight - The bush dinner! Amazing stories shared over delicious food with the ever-present anticipation of a lioness walking by. If you are in central Serengeti, THIS is the place to stay at!
