Accommodation & Stays
Carefully selected lodges, camps, and hotels that combine comfort, quality service, and prime locations to enhance your overall travel experience.
Lake Masek Tented Lodge
From the private terrace of your tent you will be able to observe the wildlife in the area. Many animals frequent the lake in search of water, so this camp is a prime viewing spot.
This area is also the main site of the Great Migration between December and April, and the Big Five frequent the area. The camp is set up in a different part of the area each year, to ensure that from your own tent you will always have the best vantage point for this awe-inspiring spectacle.
The camp is also environmentally friendly, without compromising on comfort and attention to detail. Electricity is generated by solar panels and rainwater is collected. All products used are biodegradable.
