Located in northern Tanzania, the 350,000-acre Singita Grumeti Reserve is a vital part of the Serengeti Mara ecosystem. It was created to protect the path of the annual wildebeest migration, one of the greatest natural spectacles in the world. With its impressive set of properties that cater to different guests, it’s no wonder Singita Grumeti Reserve, Tanzania has won numerous awards and accolades. While the migration is certainly a highlight in Tanzania, the Singita Grumeti Reserve offers fantastic game-viewing experiences year-round. Because it’s a private park, the properties and guides aren’t limited with their game-viewing opportunities. You can go on night-drives, bush walks, and participate in horseback riding safaris within the Singita Grumeti Reserve. Take a closer look at the Singita Grumeti Reserve luxury lodges.
