About Mawe Tented Camp
Mawe Tented Camp is a small, eco-friendly safari camp located in the Central Serengeti, one of the park’s most wildlife-rich regions. The camp’s name, “Mawe,” means “stone” in Swahili, reflecting its sturdy, grounded approach to providing an authentic safari experience. Unlike larger, more commercial lodges, Mawe Tented Camp keeps things simple and intimate, making it ideal for travelers who want to immerse themselves in nature without the distractions of over-the-top luxury.

Whether you’re here for the migration or simply to experience the stunning biodiversity of the Serengeti, Mawe Tented Camp places you right in the heart of the action.
