Location & How to Get There

Serengeti Acacia Bliss Luxury Camp is located within the Serengeti National Park ecosystem in northwestern Tanzania. The camp operates with booking offices in Karatu (P.O. Box 277, Karatu, Arusha Region) and the Ngorongoro Tourism Centre in Arusha (Acacia 3rd Floor, Goliondoi Rd). Access routes include charter flights from Julius Nyerere International Airport in Dar es Salaam or regional airstrips, followed by ground transfer to the camp. Alternative road transfers from Arusha take 5-7 hours depending on seasonal road conditions. The camp coordinates all transfer logistics through its 24-hour reservation team.

Best Time to Visit

The Serengeti's game viewing peaks during the dry season from June through October, when wildlife congregates around permanent water sources and vegetation is sparse, enabling clear sightings. The Great Migration typically occurs November through June, with the dramatic river crossing events concentrated in July and August. The wet season (November-May) brings lush vegetation, excellent bird watching, and lower tourist density, though some secondary roads become impassable. Year-round wildlife viewing is possible, with seasonal variations in species distribution and activity patterns. Average temperatures range from 15°C (59°F) at night to 28°C (82°F) during the day, with higher humidity during wet months.

Conservation & Community

The camp operates within the Serengeti ecosystem, one of UNESCO's protected biospheres and Africa's most significant conservation zones. The Acacia Lodge group maintains partnerships with local Tanzanian communities and supports regional conservation initiatives. The camp's Karatu-based operations coordinate with community stakeholders and tourism authorities through registered booking offices. Staff positions prioritize local and regional employment, supporting economic development in the Arusha and Karatu regions. The camp adheres to Tanzania's national park regulations and sustainable tourism standards.
