Usawa Camp - Serengeti - Tanzania - The Classic Safari Company

Journey to the heart of the Great Migration

Usawa Serengeti Camp is a mobile camp that moves in harmony with the Serengeti’s most iconic wildlife phenomenon—the Great Migration. Shifting between key migration hotspots throughout the year, it ensures front-row access to the thundering herds of wildebeest and zebra, as well as the predators that follow in their wake. Whether you’re witnessing dramatic river crossings or calving season on the southern plains, Usawa places you exactly where the action is.

The camp comprises just six elegantly appointed guest tents, each designed to offer understated luxury in the heart of the bush. Large beds, en suite bathrooms, and inviting lounge areas provide a comfortable retreat after a day of exploration. The tented guest areas are warm and welcoming, with a campfire crackling each evening and delicious meals served al fresco beneath star-studded skies.

Usawa places a strong emphasis on sustainability and low-impact travel, ensuring that the camp leaves no trace as it journeys through the park. The guiding team offers exceptional insight into animal behaviour, ecology, and the rhythms of the migration, bringing the landscape to life with every game drive.

Ideal for travellers who want to stay close to nature without compromising on comfort, Usawa Serengeti is perfect for couples, friends, and families alike. Its mobility ensures a unique adventure each time—one shaped by the seasons, the wildlife, and the soul of the Serengeti.

Thank you for putting together the ancestral adventure of a lifetime. I cannot speak highly enough of the trip. The transfers went smoothly, the accommodation was excellent, the drivers were amazing as they manoeuvred through the traffic and every tour guide had a great deal of knowledge and information. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The contrast of poverty and riches of the country was striking, from the beggars in the street and struggles of the poor to the spectacular, impressive sights of the forts and monuments. There were so many highlights. A moment in time that will never happen again.

Jenny Kidd

Exellent and wonderful, reaching way above expectations.

Elizabeth Mackintosh

We wanted the opportunity to see as many wildlife parks as possible and the Classic Safari Company provided an action-packed itinerary that included six, with 11 tiger sightings and nine leopard. This was overlaid with an introduction to Jaisalmer, Jaipur and the 'real' India. Pench and Panna were the hidden gems of a really great trip, very well organised, seamless and enjoyable. As a solo traveller I felt incredibly safe at all times. I want to go back!

Mark Taylor
