Nduara Loliondo was designed to celebrate Nomadic cultures around the world: the Mongolian Gers, and our own Maasai bomas. The outcome of this heady mix of culture, style, comfort and wilderness is the most amazing camp you will ever see.

Nduara Loliondo moves its yurts across the Loliondo area, part of the great Serengeti eco-system, bordering the Serengeti National Park proper. Being outside the park boundaries offers great freedom; simple things like walks and night drives mean an altogether more intense and real feeling of safari, and wilderness unlike any other.

It's a different type of safari, one you see and feel at ground level. Step out of your safari vehicle and experience things from a different perspective. Being at Nduara Loliondo takes you into safari life beyond the game drive. Here is where you get deeper into the bush, and life takes on a vastly different pace.

Nduara Loliondo is all about harmony, and reflects this in a strikingly organic design. Six big, beautiful yurts have been given a totally African makeover, with enough light and air to do justice to the wide skies and gentle climate of the area, then revved up with re-invented Maasai motifs and materials.

Each of the bedroom yurts has its own spacious en-suite bathroom attached to the back, with short drop toilets, and traditional bucket showers with hot and cold water on demand.

The yurts have been designed to be as cool as possible during the day, and have wrap-around shade net windows with flaps that can be rolled up or down. There is also a traditional open ‘wheel’ in the centre of the roof (in Mongolian gers this is where the chimney of the fireplace would be located). This helps to keep the yurt open and airy.

The communal mess and dining yurts are perfect for lazy afternoons, or cuddling up as night falls after a genuinely wild day out. This camp takes pastoralism to a whole new level - bold of heart, strong of step and strong in soul. 

Being outside the official park boundaries, but still within the whole eco-system, allows far greater freedoms than within the National Park itself. Although we still head out on game drives, the emphasis at Nduara Loliondo is on simple things like walking safaris, and night drives, which means an altogether more intense and real feeling of wilderness, not to mention more exciting encounters with game.

Enjoy the freedom of lengthy picnics and early evening sundowners. This is the time to slow down, get out of your vehicle and take on a different pace. See the things that you might otherwise miss. A fascinating new world reveals itself through the eyes of your own private guide who accompanies you on this adventure.

As the Maasai actually live in these areas, you also get to see something of tribal life, and give directly to those who are this land's custodians: we pay a significant fee to the local communities for every night you stay here, encouraging them to preserve these critical habitats.

From USD 450 per person per night sharing (fully inclusive)
