Location

Serengeti, Tanzania

Singita Faru Faru Lodge sits in the private Grumeti Reserve area of the Serengeti, Tanzania. Built on a gentle slope that overlooks the Grumeti Rive, the setting keeps the stay grounded in its surrounding landscape, with wildlife, light and distance shaping the sense of place before each day’s safari begins.

From the UK, travellers usually fly into Kilimanjaro, Arusha or Dar es Salaam, depending on whether the itinerary focuses on the northern or southern circuit.

Light aircraft is common for Serengeti, Ruaha, Nyerere and Mahale combinations, while northern circuit road routing can work well.
