Chaka Camp offers a nice value for this seeking to visit Serengeti National Park and the great migration on a budget. As the camp moves alongside the herds, you will always be in a prime location.
~ Mango Opinion
As the original and flagship camp, Chaka has learned from its surroundings and discovered a way to exist harmoniously within it. The camp moves seasonally to keep near the Great Wildebeest Migration and therefore remains surrounded by life. Guests have the opportunity to safely enjoy watching their mammalian neighbors graze the grounds and trees wrapped around the tent's boundaries.
With just ten tents, Chaka – meaning ‘bush’ in Swahili – offers an authentic and intimate bush experience in the middle of the Serengeti wilderness. Room fabrics are handwoven African designs, and the camp’s furniture and decor were designed and built by artisans in Arusha, Tanzania.
Chaka Camp follows the wildebeest migration, covering hundreds of kilometers as it moves seasonally around the Serengeti. From December to April, the camp is located in Ndutu, moving northward to Kogatende from May to December. From December through March, the wildebeest migration moves in and out of the Ndutu area. Ndutu is located in Ngorongoro Conservation Area, just south of Serengeti National Park. Chaka Camp’s location provides easy access to prime game viewing areas around Lakes Ndutu and Masek. In addition to the almost two million wildebeest and zebra that move through the area each year, Ndutu is home to cheetah, lion, giraffe and hundreds of bird species. During February’s calving season, the wildebeest give birth to 8,000+ babies a day.
