A particular highlight was witnessing a leopard as it stalked its prey, caught it and took it away to haul it to safety up a nearby tree." See all these reviews: 12n in Tanzania; 1n in Kenya

"Lamai Serengeti review"
We really enjoyed eating under the stars with the management team & once again the food was absolutely delicious. Our picnic breakfasts were magnificent! and lunch was always light & fresh (perfect in the heat). The canapés prior to dinner were all excellent as were the meals - top marks to the chefs!
The askari were so polite & brave. We felt safe in their company, Puce was always very chatty & charming.
The only potential downside to this camp is that some of the lodges are quite along way from the main area with quite a steep climb and we were definitely affected by the altitude! We were very lucky as our lodge was quite close but just wonder whether clients should be made more aware of this element." See all these reviews: 8n in Tanzania
"Lamai Serengeti review"
As the rooms are quite spread out we did wonder why Lamai only provided an air horn in the room for contacting staff rather than a two-way radio as at other camps." See all these reviews: 10n in Tanzania; 1n in Kenya

Again, the camp is great, but I would not go again." See all these reviews: 6n in Tanzania
"Good stay during migration"
"Lamai Serengeti Feedback"
Mark and Chloe were remarkable hosts and it felt like we made almost instant companions despite the brevity of our stay there.
My only slight quibble was the quality of the (bird) guiding. Lovely chap though he was, too often he didn't know what the bird we were looking at was and on one occasion even blamed the poor quality of his binoculars.
Highlights were going out walking one afternoon and encountering two separate pairs of lions, crossing the border into the Masai Mara as part of the ongoing quest for cheetah and twelve elephants traversing the airstrip upon our departure." See all these reviews: 6n in Tanzania
