Pumzika Luxury Safari Camp is a secluded sanctuary where timeless safari romance meets modern comfort. Surrounded by two of the park’s most prolific lion prides and far from the main roads, this exclusive camp offers a front-row seat to the rhythms of the wild, where giraffes and buffalo roam freely among the tents and the night echoes with the distant roar of lions.

Strategically located in one of the Serengeti’s most wildlife-rich areas, Pumzika offers:
