About Asilia Olakira Migration Camp
Olakira┬аMigration Camp┬аfollows the migration throughout the year,┬аoffering┬аthe closest┬аpossible view of the action.┬аThe canvas tents are designed to blend into the bush without leaving a trace,тАп though that doesnтАЩt mean we scrimp on comforts.
Admire the sprawling plains of the Serengeti or Ndutu region from the dining tent, or spend a leisurely afternoon in an armchair, watching zebras or ThomsonтАЩs gazelles pass by. After dark, dinner is served under the stars.
Between June and October, Olakira is in the north to witness the Wildebeest crossing of the Mara River.┬аHere, watch thousands of wildebeest take┬аa┬аleap of faith into the water, facing hungry Nile crocodiles and cantankerous hippos.
When the wildebeest herds are on the move, the air is full of grunting, thudding hooves, and billowing dust. From December until March, camp is moved to the southern plains of the Serengeti, where the wildebeest go to give birth and graze on lush grass, and predators such as lions and cheetahs gather to prey on the young.
How do you Get to Asilia Olakira Migration Camp?
The camp is situated in the far north of the Serengeti from June to November and is accessed via 45 45-minute road transfer from Kogatende Airstrip. From mid-December until the end of March, itтАЩs set up in the south, in the Ndutu region, and is approached via 20-minute drive from the airstrip at Ndutu.
Both locations are fabulous тАУ the northern camp is situated close to a sweeping bend of the River Mara, while in the south guests can enjoy amazing views over sprawling plains as far as Lake Masek!
What Facilities are at Asilia Olakira Migration Camp?
There are nine tents at Olakira Migration Camp, including one with two bedrooms ideally suited to families. The tents have king-sized beds (twins are also available) and en suite bathrooms with flushing toilets and solar-heated hot water showers.

At night, we’ll roll your bed into the meshed area to spend the night with the stars glittering above while dreaming about the dayтАЩs adventures. It truly is an experience you donтАЩt want to miss.

Great Wildebeest Migration
тАУ In the Mara region, the focus is the famous Great Migration river crossings, with guests also enjoying sightings of lion, leopard, cheetah, elephant, black rhino, and the terrifying Nile crocodile! Both locations are brilliant for birdlife. While the camp is at Ndutu, the huge herds of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelles are grazing on the regionтАЩs short-grass plains.
-
Wildlife spotting
тАУ February is a particularly good time to visit, as this month usually sees a lot of calving! The presence of newborns attracts a lot of big cats, although lion, leopard, and cheetah are prevalent across the plains throughout mid-December into March. Smaller predators in Ndutu include spotted hyena, golden jackal, bat-eared fox, and (albeit rarely) wild dog.

Hot air ballooning
тАУ Both camp locations provide the opportunity to go on a hot air balloon ride, ascending at dawn to glide over the SerengetiтАЩs plains as the resident wildlife wakens to a new morning, then descending to a delicious bush breakfast. This activity incurs an extra charge, but we reckon the experience is well worth it!
