that the annual migration takes place when millions of zebra, wildebeest, and gazelle cross the plains below, on their way to the
rich new grasses of the Serengeti. A spectacle that should be witnessed in one’s lifetime!

The lodge has recently undergone a refurbishment and new facilities in operation include a new reception, bar lounge, an arrival
