Zawadi, or “gift” in Swahili, is a family-run safari camp with a mission to ‘gift’ our guests with a truly life enhancing experience of the Serengeti landscape and inhabitants.

The camp is centrally positioned in the Kemarishe Hills, 20km north of Seronera, Zawadi Camp is just a few minutes by 4×4 from the famed animal migration paths of the area, and only two kilometers away from the Orangi River.

Our mission is to provide our guests with ultimate relaxation, peace of mind, and an authentic wildlife experience in the Serengeti. Mindful of the area’s fragile ecosystem and focused on cultural preservation and environmental respect, Zawadi Camp is designed to leave no trace behind once removed.

We take our environmental and social responsibility seriously. As a result, we use the latest renewable energy technology, employ and train local people and donate part of our camp’s profits towards a local shelter project for homeless and orphaned children.

Our multilingual Spanish and Tanzanian management team, and our combined warmth, hospitality and culture is proudly complemented by extensive local knowledge and respect for the local environment, its wildlife and its inhabitants such as the Maasai.

As well as the perfect accommodation, through our partners we can offer different package experiences including transfer and game drives.

We are best described by our name, Mbali Mbali – a Swahili phrase meaning “Far Far Away”. Mbali Mbali is a collection of five stunning lodges in one of Africa’s ultimate natural treasures; Tanzania. Each location has been carefully selected for their unique experiences, across incredibly diverse ecological areas,

Join us deep in the heart of the world’s most celebrated wildlife reserves, where the Big Five – the lion, the leopard, the buffalo, the elephant and the rhinoceros – run free on the endless, untamed landscape. Perched on a series of elevated platforms and walkways, our Lodge sits next to an animal watering hole, where you can watch a family of elephants stop for their morning drink as you sip your own out on your room’s private balcony. Under the constant protection of local Maasai tribes people, we’ll take you in the bush for an exhilarating game drive, or you can soar high in the sky on a hot-air balloon safari. However you spend your day, our Spa is waiting to help you rehydrate, restore and re-energize for your next adventure. Our only question – where would you like to begin?
