PIONEERING THE SPECTACULAR, un-spoilt northern Serengeti area, the award-winning Sayari Camp has become synonymous with some of the most dramatic sights that Africa has to offer: The Great Migration crossing the Mara River, incredible crocodile and hippo action, along with the undisturbed wildlife viewing that the northern Serengeti has in abundance. The Great Migration typically camps in this area from mid July to early November. Not only do guests of Sayari Camp witness the spectacle of the Mara River crossing, their experience is enhanced by the exclusivity of this remote area. Outside of the Migration season, the camp offers what is arguably an even greater experience: a private concession-like, completely uninterrupted encounter with the Serengeti and all its non-Migratory inhabitants: big cats, elephants, giraffes, hippos, crocodiles, rhino, groups of numerous large antelopes and many other exceptional animals.

Sayari Camp compliments its environment perfectly offering memorable impressions by road or on foot. The stunning camp features spacious rooms with panoramic views of the never-ending plains. The large, comfortable beds, the wide verandas, the showers and even the bath, all look out onto the ultimate backdrop: the Serengeti.

The camp is split into two separate wings, one wing has nine tents and the other has six. Each has their own facilities, sharing a beautifully appointed swimming pool, allowing guests to truly immerse themselves in the Serengeti.

Sustainable Sayari

Sayari Camp has been in the Northern Serengeti-Mara / Kogatende area now for almost 5 years. The camp has

always had a good sustainable relationship in and outside the National Park.

Outside the National Park Sayari has always had a good working relationship with the nearby villages. Sayari

supports the local community by creating employment opportunities, some of our local staff have been with Sayari

Camp from the start providing a solid income for them and their families. Sayari Camp also has a project whereby

the camp employs up to 8 Askaris/watchmen every month from 5 different villages, the camp alternates between

the different villages so that each village has the opportunity to represent themselves at the camp, and make extra

income for them and their families. When Sayari started in this area the camp together with the Honeyguide

Foundation started a vegetable program whereby Honeyguide supplied the villages with seeds and showed them

how to grow different types of vegetables and in return Sayari would then buy these vegetables from them for the

guests and staff in camp. The vegetable program was a great success and incentive for the local community to urn

a another type of income, since 2009 Sayari and the Honeyguide foundation has taken this project even further and

now have a permanent office in the area working even closer with the community and the vegetable program.

Sayari camp buys vegetables from the community now on almost a daily basis when the camp is full, and with the

interest in this area of the park increasing and more development of the area growing the local community will be

able to sell their vegetables to more camps.

Sustainable Sayari

In the upcoming 2010 safari season Sayari is also starting a project whereby we will take guests for a cultural visit

to the Wakuria villages, similar to the visits they do to the Massai Bomas further south in the Country.

Inside the National Park Sayari Camp works hard to leave a zero footprint on the environment. We sort all our

waste, bio and non-biodegradable, non-biodegradable waste gets sorted in Plastic, glass, rubber, foil/tin/metal and

gets taken out of the park and recycled in Arusha. All non-biodegradable waste before leaving camp is weighed

and recorded so that we can see if we are sending out more waste then other recorded months, and if so we have

to cut down. Sayari Camp also installed a grey-water recycling unit and all our grey-water gets cleaned and reused

to cut down on water consumption. The hot water for all our guest tents are solar heated to cut down on generator

running times. Sayari camp also has a very good environment friendly battery/inverter system that supplies power

to the camp when the generator is of, again cutting down on the amount of hours we have to run the generator.

Almost all products used in the different departments within Sayari Camp are eco-friendly including some of the

cleaning products.

Sayari Camp also maintains a good healthy working relationship with Tanapa, the park authority, Sayari supports

them in general maintenance within the park, information on game sightings seen in the area and day to day

occurrences.

Sayari Camp has played a pivotal role in the long-term conservation of the north western Serengeti. The arrival of

the camp has secured the long term conservation of this area of the park. Employment at the camp, and a fruit and

vegetable growing program initiated by Sayari, has provided opportunities for the villages at the park’s border to

benefit from the tourism in the national park.

Sayari Camp plays an important role in the long term conservation of the area: people from villages bordering the

Serengeti are employed in the camp and income from the camp goes towards educating and providing jobs for the

villagers, thereby providing an alternative livelihood to poaching.
