Location:
|
The Serengeti
eco-system is much larger than the Serengeti National Park itself and
includes the game controlled areas bordering the National Park. The
large Loliondo Game Controlled Area, bordering the Serengeti to the
east, is known for its unspoilt Maasai culture, spectacular natural
beauty and great variety of animals.
Suyan Camp operates in Loliondo through partnership agreements with
Maasai villages. The Loliondo land offers unique freedom of movement:
while the National Park rules do not allow activities such as night
drives and walking safaris, these are all possible in Loliondo.
The large, private concession areas, shared with small settlements of
the nomadic Maasai tribe, offer breathtaking landscapes: the towering
Gol Mountains, the deep Sanjan and Olkarien Gorges, wild bush with
roaming elephants and the active Ol Donyno Lengai volcano. Ancient
rock paintings prove there was life before the arrival of the first
Maasai warriors. |

During the first months of
2006, a pack of 11 wild dog roamed around Suyan Camp, allowing guests
to follow these animals on their fierce hunts without any other
tourist around. Adventurous walking safaris, fly camping, day and
night drives and visits to small Maasai settlements - all without
meeting other tourists - make a visit to Suyan Camp a true and intense
experience that will stay with you long after you have left.
Combining Suyan Camp with Sayari Camp or Olakira Camp brings an
unparalleled depth to a safari in the greater Serengeti land. |

Accommodations:
 |
Far from the madding
crowd, Suyan Camp has only 5 guest tents, offers gourmet food, great
wines, and all the comforts you can possibly expect. Yet a stay here
is not about luxury. It is about discovery, exploration and nature in
its overwhelming totality.
For thousands of years, the rugged Loliondo land has been the
territory of nomadic tribes, hunting and herding for a living. A stay
in the intimate Suyan Camp reflects the history of the land. Although
the camp is the home base of a stay in the area, walking safaris and
fly camping will take you deep into this wild and ancient land. Here
you will find wildlife, mountains, gorges, volcanoes, Maasai
settlements and the peace and tranquility of endless nature with not a
human in sight. |

Activities

Suyan Camp offers a menu
of activities that is a dream to anyone wanting to discover Africa.
Explore the land on foot with a walking safari led by an expert
naturalist guide. Combine walking with fly camping and go off on
multiple day treks to explore remote areas that very few tourists have
ever visited before. Drive out at night to find animals that hide
during the day. Visit remote Maasai settlements to experience how
cultural tourism is meant to be. Enjoy breakfast or lunch overlooking
endless plains or dinner under countless stars. Take your best shots
in a country that is made for photography.
Or simply relax and enjoy the view in the safety of Suyan Camp |
