Upclose & Personal

WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHIC HIDE

Serengeti Explorer has its very own purpose-built wildlife photographic hide located next to a permanently-fed water hole.

Attracting animals from the surrounding corridor, this waterhole sates the insatiable thirst the resident animals of the corridor.

This hide is a haven for those guests wishing to get ‘up close and personal’ with the wildlife. Watch in awe at the magnificence of the natural world as - for a brief moment - their differences are put aside in order to quench their need for the life-giving H2O.


This hide is open every day - and available to all guests.
