Fantastic, romantic stay with amazing staff Die Baobab Lodge war für uns die tollste Unterkunft auf unserer Reise. Die Zelte sind wunderschön ausgestattet mit einer Outdoor-Dusche mit Blick auf die Tiere wenn man Glück hat! Abends wird man vom netten Personal vom und zum Essen gebracht. Das Essen ist fantastisch und die Mitarbeiter unglaublich lieb. An beiden Abenden wurde für uns gesungen und getanzt, was ein ganz besonderes Erlebnis war. Abends wurde ein Lagerfeuer gemacht. Wir hatten zwei wundervolle Nächte in der Lodge und bedanken uns beim gesamten Personal für die unglaubliche Zeit!

Pure Serengeti Magic at Baobab Central. I spent 02 nights at Baobab Central Serengeti, and everything was just perfect. The location was perfect, it's right in the heart of the Serengeti with amazing views and wildlife all around. The atmosphere was warm, peaceful, and truly authentic. The rooms were comfortable, beautifully set, and very clean. Overall cleanliness was impressive, and the value for money was excellent. The staff were kind, attentive, and made the stay feel special. If you’re looking for a place that blends comfort, incredible service, and that authentic Serengeti atmosphere, this is it. I would return in a heartbeat and I honestly would recommend it to anyone dreaming of a truly unforgettable safari experience.❤️

Magical Off-The-Grid Safari Glamping What a magical spot in the middle of the Serengeti! Both romantic and family-friendly, the accommodations were new and comfortable. Loved the indoor and outdoor showers! True, you can't just wander around the area or walk off the path. I wanted to walk down to the river, but the animals have free rein, so it wasn't a good idea. Saw a huge family of baboons plus Cape Buffalo very near our tent. Food was above average, the bar had everything, and the grill night was delicious. Definitely recommend if you want to feel off the grid and in the wild on safari.

Ein Abenteuer Was für ein Erlebnis! Schon die Begrüßung war so freundlich und aufmerksam, so dass wir uns von Anfang an sehr wohlgefühlt haben. Auch die ausdrücklich Warnung sich Nachts nicht im Freien aufzuhalten und sich nur mit Personalbegleitung zwischen eigenem und Gemeinschaftszelt zu bewegen, hörte sich schon wie ein echtes Abenteuer an! Das hat dann auch unsere Tochter selbst erlebt, als sie auf dem Rückweg zu Ihrem Zelt plötzlich einer Büffelherde gegenüber stand. Großartig!! Ich selber habe nachts die Löwen brüllen hören und konnte Morgens neben einem perfekten Sonnenaufgang, eine Gruppe Paviane beobachten. Ein echtes Abenteuer! Wie schon anfangs erwähnt war das Personal außergewöhnlich freundlich und aufmerksam. U.a. konnte sich unser Sohn nicht nur über ein Geburtstagsständchen des gesamten Personals freuen, sondern auch über einen leckeren Geburtstagskuchen. Vielen lieben Dank an das gesamte Team, die diesen wundervollen Aufenthalt ermöglicht haben. Wir werden wiederkommen.

Our favourite place of the entire Safari🙏🏻 We were lucky to spend two nights in this incredible place . The rooms are very luxurious and make you forget that you are in fact sleeping in a tent. Even though the rooms were amazing our favourite part was definitely the staff, they all made us feel like home since the very first minute. Everybody was really friendly, special shoutout to Castro who went the extra mile to make our stay even more special. The food was simply incredible, Chef Eric and Chef Josef put so much love and effort into all the food they prepared and they were really the sweetest people to talk to the the buffet. Thanks for everything! We will definitely recommend this incredible place to our friends and family🙏🏻

Fantastic stay We stayed for (unfortunately!) only one night at this beautiful camp in central Serengeti and it was absolutely wonderful. The level of customer service was extraordinary, the rooms were so luxurious and we felt so relaxed there. Beatrice in particular was very caring, and we had lovely conversations with the manager of the camp (whose name we have forgotten - apologies!) and he really cared about the guest experience and went out of his way to make sure we felt welcomed. We were lucky enough to hear the roar of lions at night, and spot several baboons! We always felt safe and looked after. During our trip, we stayed at eight different accommodations and the level of customer service here outshone all of the rest. The areas were so clean, the food delicious and the experience was unforgettable - You won’t regret staying here!
