Nyikani Camp- Central Serengeti

We stayed for two nights at the Kiota Camp and were welcomed by the most friendly staff one could wish for. It appeared that we were the only guests staying at the camp. The staff joined as at the fire side and chatted with us quite a bit. We really enjoyed their stories and felt right at home and safe all the time. As the rooms are tents, the staff provided us with a hot water bag each to keep us warm during the night. The tent was very spacious and felt extremely luxurious, we didn't miss anything. Since the camp site is right within the Serengeti nationalpark we had the most amazing view from our room and the whole camp site. They even have giraffes visiting as they are eating from the trees around the camp site. It was the most amazing stay and we would highly recommend this to everyone visiting Serengeti nationalpark!!

This is a great camp in the Serengeti! The surroundings are stunning and we loved that we could come back and relax and still keep our eyes peeled for wildlife. The tents were better than expected- the bathroom was spacious and it got cool at night so it was very comfortable to sleep. The shower situation is less than ideal. You have to have an attendant bring you water and fill up your shower bucket, meaning showers are short and not always warm. However, we felt it was all “part of the experience” being in the Serengeti. The service was excellent and staff was so friendly! Make sure you bring cash. This camp is super remote and the credit card machine doesn’t always work properly.

We stayed here for four nights. This is the tenth camp we have stayed in throughout Africa and by far the most basic. However, it is an absolute gem and we loved it. Jubilante doing a fantastic job with his great young team. Special shout outs to Stanley, Eden & the amazing chef who served up great food accommodating all my dietary requirements with ease. It was our 25th wedding anniversary and we were surprised with a cake & all the guys dancing & singing ! Would definitely recommend this camp.

I have so many good things to say about this place. The staff is incredible. The tents are very comfortable and it's so cool to sleep and look out onto the Serengeti listening to hyenas, zebras, lions, and more. Staff will deliver coffee to your tent so you can watch the sunrise over the plains on the "porch" - these were my favorite mornings on our safari! The food was incredible as were the common areas. I wish we had stayed longer at Kiota Camp! Absolutely stay here!!!

This was my first trip to Africa and my very first “luxury tent” experience, and I didn’t know what to expect. And oh my goodness, our experience at Kiota Camp was surely an amazing first-time experience for me. Right in the middle of the Serengeti, the location was amazing. Perfect for early morning game drives. They did a really great job setting up the tent camp, as it has the most modern conveniences, which was pretty impressive given we were out in the wild - and still in a tent. Everyone in their staff took great care of us, helping to run the showers and attending to all our needs. They escort you at night to ensure your safety. And they are very careful in keeping the insides of the tent insect-free. I realize we were in the middle of the wilderness and bugs are inevitable, but it’s especially important to me if I can sleep soundly without worrying about any bugs. We stayed in about 8 camps and lodges throughout our trip and I must say, Kiota Camp had some of the best food. Being a small camp, we were very impressed with the quality. They also had the best-boxed lunches for game drives as they provided a variety of quality dishes, as opposed to just a regular sandwich, which we appreciated since we were mostly having sandwiches throughout our game drives. I also have a gluten-free diet and they catered to my needs. Overall, a wonderful and memorable experience! We would certainly go back and we highly recommend Kiota.

Amazing tent in Central Serengeti! We were blown away with Kiota Camp. The room was spacious, comfortable, bathroom was great, bucket shower more than adequate. Best food, consistently delicious, bush happy hour, bush breakfast, bush dinner!!! Oh the sunsets. The only suggestion would be to have a fan in the room. Let me mention, when we visited Kiota it was September 7-9. We were the only guests. More were coming in on 9/9. Our service, meals were 10 stars.
