Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti, Tanzania – the luxury safari lodge is located in one of the world’s most celebrated wildlife reserves, Serengeti. While here, all the Africa’s Big Five can be spotted (the lion, the leopard, the buffalo, the elephant, and the rhinoceros). The large numbers of animals live in the free, endless, and untamed landscape of Serengeti National Park.
The Four Season Safari Lodge is perched on a series of elevated platforms and walkways, the Lodge sits next to an animal watering hole, where you can watch a family of elephants stops for their morning drink as you sip your own out on your room’s private balcony.
The Maasai people have been of great use, with their constant protection, you can grab a great chance to get into the bushes for an exhilarating game drive, or you can soar high in the sky on a hot-air balloon. Wow-what a wonderful experience!! Areal lifetime experience.
The Four Seasons has all the modern conveniences of the big western hotel brands yet is set right in the middle of the Serengeti. Ideal for families and large parties seeking top quality accommodation with a spa, infinity pool and beautiful guest suites we think. This is our favourite among the big hotels in this area.
