Hidden in the remote Lamai Triangle in the northernmost reaches of the Serengeti, Singita Mara River Tented Camp is a rare expression of intimate, contemporary safari luxury. Set dramatically beside a bend of the Mara River, the camp places guests in one of the most evocative landscapes of northern Tanzania, where the river, open wilderness, and extraordinary wildlife create a feeling of true escape. During the Great Migration, this privileged setting offers access to one of Africa’s most remarkable wildlife spectacles, while the camp’s remote character makes every stay feel deeply personal and exclusive.
With just six spacious tented suites, Mara River offers an intimate experience where contemporary design meets the textures and colours of Africa. Light-filled interiors, locally crafted furniture, vibrant Maasai-inspired details, private decks, and beautiful bathrooms create a relaxed yet sophisticated sanctuary. The design is intentionally understated, allowing the surrounding wilderness to remain the star. From your private space, the sounds of the river and the vastness of the landscape become part of everyday life.
The main camp brings together relaxed dining, a stylish lounge, signature bar and deli, and a swimming pool designed for leisurely afternoons overlooking the wilderness. Seasonal ingredients and East African influences shape the culinary experience, while wellness treatments, yoga, meditation, and private moments beside the river invite guests to slow down completely. Evenings beneath the stars add another layer of romance to the experience, with the sounds of the wilderness providing a natural soundtrack.
What makes Singita Mara River truly exceptional is its sense of place. This is a camp for travellers who want to go beyond simply seeing the Serengeti and instead feel completely immersed in it. Twice-daily game drives, hot air balloon safaris, birdwatching, and other tailor-made experiences reveal the surrounding wilderness, while the camp’s off-grid solar-powered design allows it to exist lightly within its remote environment. For Back to Eden Adventure guests, Mara River is an extraordinary choice for those seeking privacy, exceptional design, authentic wilderness, and the rare feeling of being completely surrounded by Africa.

Incredible experience with Back to Eden Adventures As the Great Migration season kicks off in June, I'm excited to share my unforgettable Safari experience in Tanzania with Back to Eden Adventures. Their expert guide Hassan took us on thrilling game drives, bringing us face-to-face with incredible wildlife. We savored every moment, eagerly awaiting sightings of lions and cheetahs in action. The highlight of our trip was a luxurious 2-day glamping adventure deep in the middle of forest, with impeccable service from the staff. Special thanks to Laurent and Gift and for their exceptional customer service, which truly made our experience unforgettable. We highly recommend Back to Eden Adventures to anyone planning a Tanzanian adventure.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Great safari experience! Planned a trip for my parents and another couple, and they had an amazing time! They mentioned Laurent specifically took very good care of them during the whole tour and to their particular needs whether it was the food, their medical conditions etc. I definitely recommend this tour for safari in Serengeti. Reach out to Laurent! He's so easy to get along with and communicate with so that you can plan in advance with him before your trip.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()
