Conservation at Singita Serengeti

The Grumeti Fund is the proud custodian of 350,000 acres of this unique ecosystem. Ensuring the continued protection of the Singita Serengeti concessions, situated primarily in the critical western corridor of the plains, is essential to the future sustainability of the ancient migration that defines these lands. When the Grumeti Fund took over the management of this…

“An unforgettable East African luxury experience in Singita Sabora”

Luxurious nine – tented suites are charming and very comfortable with all amenities for an amazing experience in the middle of the plains of Serengeti (including a small gym and a small swimming pool). We were a group of 12 friends and felt utterly spoilt with the efficient, safe and friendly service from all members of the staff at Singita Sabora. The days were packed with lots of activities starting at 6 am, including twice-daily game drives, bush walks and night drives which gave a completely different perspective of the wildlife. The food and service at Singita were excellent and they even managed to do a barbecue and a campfire. Nothing was too difficult for them. Our guides were experienced and very knowledgeable which made our safari game drives very enjoyable. I found our safari holiday very challenging but thoroughly amazing and unforgettable. This place is magic and I would definitely recommend for a totally amazing safari experience.

“Africa Africa Africa at it’s very best”

Singita Sabora Tented Camp

The wildlife and safari experience is up there with the best Africa offers … Game drives are early morning and sunset and the guides are amazing … Because it is a private reserve you can go “off road” and it is not overrun by numerous other operators … So, the experience is very very special and very intimate.”

“Exceptional World Class Service”

Holy cow! I don’t know where to start. Sabora is magical, historical, and the essence of high-end glamping. We had previously stayed at Singita properties in South Africa (Sweni and Lebombo) and had high expectations for this stay. We were not disappointed. Sabora is part Hollywood movie set from the 1920s combined with part 2017 Five Star Comfort and Service. The view of the Serengeti plains from the main building is stunning. The food and service were every bit as good as our previous experience! They think of every detail and treat you like royalty. Our butler was a true gentleman and an expert at his craft. The lodge manager provided us with a warm welcome and was such a kind spirit. A true leader. Our games drives (morning and evening) were outstanding. Every day was different. Overall, this was worth every penny and was one of the best vacations we have ever had.

My sincere thanks for treating our family so well and for providing memories and an experience we will always remember.

“A Perfect 10”

Bush breakfast at Singita Grumeti

This is my second visit to this Camp in 6 years. Step back in time to Safari days long ago but with modern amenities and attention to detail. The staff here is amazing and dedicated to make your time here a magical time. The food is amongst the best I have ever eaten, no meal or snack disappointed! It’s nice to have a gym on property to work it off, well some of it anyway. Singita is an amazing choice for Safari and if you want an incredible tent experience, try Singita Sabora. You will not be disappointed!!”

“Majestic Rainy Season”

Singita is a Shangaan word meaning “Place of Miracles” and this is the perfect word to describe Singita Grumeti. I brought my fiancé for an early honeymoon and she was completely blown away. It was incredibly beautiful and we highly recommend going during the rainy season. The staff were truly the most welcoming, kind, happy and helpful group we have been privileged to meet in our many years of travel. Their sincere commitment to the conservation efforts was evident by their own love and respect for the animals and the environment.

Thank you so much for an experience beyond words; it was the most perfect early honeymoon imaginable. Asante sana.”

“Wow. Hard to beat.”

Singita Sabora Tented Camp

To experience the feeling of a tented safari with ultimate luxury, Sabora can not be beat. Fabulous service, food, and accommodations. Truly amazing. We visited several lodges and permanent camps in Tanzania, and Sabora was simply the best. The staff try very hard to please. The house wines were good. And the safari game drives were fabulous.

“Truly Heaven on Earth”

Dining al fresco at Singita Sabora Tented Camp

If God were a camper, he would choose Sabora Tented Camp. It’s truly heaven on Earth! Sabora is nestled in the middle of Singita’s 350,000 acres, and is not fenced in. It’s pure luxury with a leather tiled bathroom and all the amenities; crystal decanters filled with spirits; curtains tied back with leather buckled straps. There is an outdoor shower, and indoor bath tub. Sabora is Serengeti, up close and in your face; zebras and buffalos grazing in front of the tent. Service is pampering and spoiling- like a new born baby is pampered and spoiled by all. Of the three Singita properties, Sabora is my favorite. They are all luxurious and have impeccable service and delicious food. Sabora puts me in a bygone era of the Hemingway period; and in Sabora, I’m one with Serengeti.

“A Piece of Heaven”

Singita Sabora Tented Camp

We were at Singita Grumeti reserve for 6 nights. We started at Sabora Tented Camp. Eugen, who was our guide for the week met us at the airport. We were transported by open Land Cruiser to Sabora where we were met by Moses and staff. We were treated like royalty. The food throughout the Singita properties was exceptional. Soup, which was a first course option at lunch and dinner, was always delicious. The tents were luxurious. I felt as though I was in “Out of Africa”.

The animals did not disappoint. Zebras, cape buffalo, impalas, and even mongoose were close enough to entertain.  I would put Sabora Tented Camp at the top of my list if I were ever to return to Africa.

“Serengeti's Finest”

Singita Sabora Tented Camp, Tanzania

Our tents were spectacular – nicer than any hotel I’ve ever stayed in, with a claw foot tub & outdoor shower. And, there aren’t words to describe how amazing it is to be completely submerged in the Serengeti …giraffe, baboons, buffalo, ostrich, all grazing within sight of our tents.

The food was incredible and the kitchen accommodated every restriction and craving. The very best part, besides the tents, pool, tennis court, archery, meals, staff and spa, were the evening game drives and cocktails. The experience was so luxurious and amazing.
