This lodge offers guests panoramic views over the endless Serengeti plains, where lions, cheetahs, elephants, and migrating herds roam freely year-round.
Perfectly positioned for spectacular wildlife viewing, the lodge blends elegantly into its natural surroundings, with traditional African-style design elements and contemporary comforts. Golden Trips Tanzania recommends Serengeti Serena Lodge as a premier choice for travelers seeking luxury accommodation coupled with world-class safari experiences in one of Africa’s most iconic parks.
