This exclusive lodge mixes both traditional and modern design elements, creating an inviting, sophisticated hideaway. Limited to just 10 suites, each with a private deck, spectacular views, large soaking tub, outdoor rain shower, personal minibar and grand bed made for dreaming. The main lodge offers airy living spaces, a rejuvenating spa and gym and a curated wine cellar. An expansive pool is set on a rocky outcrop overlooking natural springs below, frequently visited by resident wildlife. ## Profile The bathroom brings the outdoors inside with traditional canvas walls accented with copper fixtures, large soaking tubs with private outside showers, all with transporting views from hardwood plank decks. The grey slate-lined infinity-edge pool overlooks three springs where guests can enjoy the sights and sounds of a constant parade of wildlife. Located in Mwiba Wildlife Reserve, a conservation concession dedicated to the balance between wildlife and communities, this area is only available to a handful of guests, facilitating an excellent, uncrowded safari experience within the greater Serengeti eco-system. This vast 129,530 acre wildlife reserve is vibrantly lush with 33 freshwater springs and a diverse array of wildlife. Game drives, bush walks and cultural excursions to the local tribe’s village are just a few of the magical experiences that begin at Mwiba. ## Activities list Each party is allocated a private vehicle and guide for the duration of your stay, allowing complete flexibility to decide your own schedule. Game drives take place in the morning, afternoon and evening, or head out all day with a picnic lunch. Taking the opportunity to get out on foot is highly recommended. The terrain lends itself to walking, and the chance to get out of the vehicle, stretch one's legs, and zone in on the smaller things is one to be embraced. The Hadzabe are a hunter-gatherer tribe indigenous to the area, and live in perfect symbiosis with their environment, which provides them with all their needs for food, medicine and shelter. Guests have the incredibly special opportunity to accompany them for a morning as they move through the wilderness, foraging for food and demonstrate their tradition of bow-and-arrow making, while sharing their folklore and history. The Datoga are a warrior tribe with a lifestyle akin to the Masai, and therefore ancient enemies of theirs. The opportunity to visit them in their village is a magical way to gain insight into a proud and vibrant culture that is as much part of Mwiba's landscape as the wildlife is. Experience a night under the stars in true expeditionary fashion. Fly-camping is the perfect off-grid getaway for those seeking a full immersion into the wilderness and, with no distractions, get closer to nature than anywhere else. A bucket shower with warm water and a long drop loo are the facilities available to guests while fly-camping, and there is also the option to arrive or depart via a bush walk. The ultimate means of soothing away the bumps and bounces of hours on safari, indulge in a spa treatment or take to the gym. Elevate your safari experience and revel in the freedom to explore hundreds of of thousands of acres of unspoiled wilderness: from the wide-open plains, dramatic volcanoes and mirror-like lakes to the spectacular geological formation of the Great East African Rift Valley which tears through 7000km of Africa’s most ancient landscape. --- ## Contact Email: safari@bonamy.co.uk Phone (UK/EU): +44 (0) 20 3575 1098 Phone (US): +1 917 310 1920 Website: https://bonamy.co.uk
