Namiri Plains, a luxury tented safari camp in a remote eastern corner of the Serengeti, opened in summer 2014 after the area was closed off for 20 years to create a safe haven for cheetahs. We’re happy to announce that Bushtracks just added Namiri Plains to the over 340 safari camps and lodges on bushtracks.com, so now you can build a Bushtracks Serengeti safari with Namiri Plains by using the Bushtracks Trip Builder. The camp is well-situated for designing a custom safari with a multi Serengeti safari camp experience and Ngorongoro Crater game-viewing.

Its secluded surroundings combined with superior guiding create a more intense wildlife experience.
