An unforgettable East African safari

At mobile Wilderness Usawa Serengeti, spend three nights enjoying unparalleled access to this breathtaking spectacle. Far from the crowds but close to the action, Wilderness Usawa follows the ever-moving mega-herds throughout the year. Despite its mobility, you’ll find Wilderness Usawa Serengeti sacrifices no comfort, providing a luxurious and immersive experience. With 360° mesh-sided surrounds and view-facing beds made up in fine linens, the stylish open-plan en-suite tents offer an immersive, authentic experience in luxury.

Enjoy early morning game drives with breakfast on the kopjes (hills), afternoon drives with sundowners, or full-day excursions following the herds, with packed picnic lunches. Guided walks that start straight from camp offer a more intimate exploration of the Serengeti’s plains, unpacked and explained by our knowledgeable Wilderness guides.

Eight spacious and luxuriously appointed tented suites decorated in soft, earthy tones, welcome you into a quintessential East African safari wonderland. Spend time in the main area’s chic lounge, dining area, bar, or pool, and take in the glorious views. The expansive viewing deck is the perfect stage for sundowners, wildlife spotting, and storytelling at the convivial fire pit.

Enjoy thrilling game viewing on drives or by boat, with elevated seating for unimpeded sightings; with luck, spot lions, leopards, black and white rhinos, elephants, buffaloes, giraffe, zebras, and hippos. Back in camp, enjoy a traditional Kugisha supper around a roaring fire, listening to the songs and stories of the land with friends old and new.

Settle into one of Wilderness Bisate’s six luxurious Forest Villas, nestled in a rehabilitated Virunga Massif cloud forest. Perched on the edge of an eroded volcanic crater, Bisate’s views over the volcanic peaks is unmatched. Award-winning, sustainable, and exquisitely designed, Bisate’s true luxury lies in its exclusivity.

Here, meet Rwanda’s most precious inhabitants. Home to hundreds of the world’s approximately 1,000 Endangered mountain gorillas, Volcanoes National Park also shelters golden monkeys, side-striped jackals, servals, buffaloes, elephants, and over 200 bird species. Trek to spend one priceless hour with these remarkable primates, so similar to ourselves. While the highlight of your visit will undoubtedly be spending time with the mountain gorillas, other thrilling adventures await in Volcanoes National Park. Trek to see golden monkeys, hike Mount Bisoke or to the ruins of Dian Fossey’s research centre and her burial site, or visit the Ellen DeGeneres Campus of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund. Closer to the lodge, explore nature trails teeming with incredible birdlife, contribute to Bisate’s visionary reforestation project by planting a tree, or engage with the surrounding communities that play a crucial role in preserving and empowering these iconic wild lands. Every aspect of your stay at Bisate reinforces the shared purpose of preserving, expanding, and protecting this iconic wilderness. 

From the vast plains of the Serengeti to the lush peaks of Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park, each destination offers unparalleled luxury and adventure. Long after you’ve returned home, you’ll reflect on the spectacle of the Great Migration, Akagera's diverse wildlife, and the awe of seeing mountain gorillas in their natural habitat. You’ll remember the world-class accommodation and heartfelt hospitality, knowing your stay contributed to the conservation of these extraordinary destinations and their inhabitants.
