WELCOME TO EXPLORER

“It’s not just a lodge - it’s an upscale property with a host of contextual experiences all of which are delivered to the same high standards that one would expect of Elewana.”

Plains Majesty

OUR SERENGETI HOME

The Serengeti, an awe-inspiring expanse of untamed wilderness, captivates with its vast golden plains, ancient landscapes, and vibrant sunsets.

This UNESCO World Heritage site is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts, offering a front-row seat to the iconic Great Migration, where millions of wildebeest and zebras traverse the land in an epic journey.

Front-row Seats

THE ANNUAL MIGRATION

Serengeti Explorer is ideally placed in the western corridor of the National Park to offer ‘front row seats’ to the Annual Migration - one of nature’s most awe- inspiring spectacles. Each year, over 1.5 million wildebeest, accompanied by hundreds of thousands of zebras and gazelles, embark on a treacherous journey across the Serengeti.

ACTIVITIES & EXPERIENCES

Explorer has crafted a series of contextual experiences that are designed to enhance any- one’s stay at our Lodge. So much so that guests may be sorely tempted to stay longer as there is surely not enough time to embrace all that the Lodge has to offer.

With many experiences being complimentary to all guests, Explorer delivers multiple added- value experiences that international travellers are seeking.

Our Commitment

PEOPLE - PLANET - PARTNERSHIPS

Sustainable construction and community empowerment were the guiding principles behind the design of this luxury lodge.

Re-purposed stones & materials from the demolition of the existing structure were used to create the dry-stack external walls and room floors, whilst reintroducing local build methods and honing community skills. Decorative items and lighting fixtures have been manufactured using recycled materials by our social enterprise, Shanga.

The lodge will also support a number of conservation and community initiatives in the region through our philanthropic arm, Land & Life.
