Lemala Nanyukie is a swanky canvas camp in the Serengeti.
Capturing the spirit of safari in a sleek, contemporary way and with serious attention to detail, Lemala Nanyukie sits in the heart of the Serengeti National Park. Focused on exceptional game viewing and high-spec relaxation, it’s all about private plunge pools with stunning savannah views, sunken decks for nights of stargazing and sliding windows for those early morning wake-up coffees.
Outstanding guides and remarkable staff are an encyclopaedia of the land and Lemala Nanyukie’s setting just east of Seronera ensures game driving days are not only far from the crowds but also privy to exclusive animal sightings not often found in the central Serengeti. The location is phenomenal. You’re in big cat country and right on the path of the Great Wildebeest Migration. After hours of epic wildlife tracking, you can expect to see sleeping buffalo, hyrax and impala back at camp.

Walking safari from Lemala Nanyukie
Join a walking safari in the Serengeti for an immersive nature experience. Unlike a game drive, there’s no barrier between you and the environment, you’re completely absorbed in the wilderness. As you move slowly you'll see the tiny details: animal tracks, flower adaptations, insects and rocks. It’s like reading the bush telegraph, you learn what’s happened overnight and which animals have passed through the area.
Rooms
The 15 luxurious guest Suites are spaced well apart for maximum privacy. With canvas walls, cathedral-like tented ceilings and broad hardwood decks, guests at Lemala Nanyukie can expect a light contemporary décor in a palette of dazzling whites and neutral colours, with warmth introduced by textured accessories, luxurious upholstery and wooden furnishings.
Facilities
The main double-volume area features a comfortable lounge and bar, outdoor viewing deck leading to a refreshing swimming pool, and indoor and outdoor dining areas. Additionally, Lemala will arrange special meals like bush breakfasts and lantern-lit dinners. The campfire is perfect for a post-dinner drink whilst sharing your tales about your day on safari.

Most of your time at Nanyukie will be spent out on game drives, exploring the world-famous Serengeti. You might head out with a guide for a sunrise safari, come back for lunch, then head out again at 4pm. It’s also fun to do a whole-day drive with picnic lunch, especially during the Annual Great Migration when the herds are on the move. For a different perspective of the Serengeti, they can also arrange sunrise balloon safaris and walking tours where you’ll discover flora, animal tracks and see game on foot.
The stunning Lemala Camps and Lodges in Tanzania have a fantastic ethos, giving back to the local community and offering future opportunities and training within the tourism industry. The buildings double as platforms for solar panels for hot water and the reverse osmosis system provides safe drinking water and has reduced the usage of 20,000 plastic bottles a year across the camps. Old stock of plastic bottles are turned into desks for the local school and, wherever possible, food and supplies are sourced locally.
