Dunia Camp

Dunia Camp

In TanzaniTanzania’ sl, Serengeti Dunia is well placed for wildlife spotting. During the annual Great Migration, guests can watch giant herds of wildebeest move through the area right from camp. Farther afield, you may spot lions using the granite boulders of Moru Kopjes to scan the plains for prey.

About Dunia Camp

Our hospitable staff will do everything to ensure your comfort. Dunia is the only camp in Africa run entirely by women, and the team is an inspirational example of what women can achieve in a male-dominated industry.

Location of Dunia Camp

Dunia is in the central Serengeti, part of TaTanzania’samous Serengeti National Park, surrounded by golden savannah. Twice per year, this area sees millions of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles passing through on their constant migration around the Serengeti and Kenya’s Masai Mara. If you are yoyou’reucky, you don’t need to leave camp to watch the vast herds grazing.

The camp is ideally placed to explore three excellent game viewing areas: Seronera, the Moru Kopjes, and the southern Serengeti plains. The Seronera River is a gathering place for lots of wildlife, providing ample opportunity to spot predators in action. The Moru Kopjes is a cluster of old granite boulders favored by big cats used as lookout points. You might even spot the rare black rhino. The southern plains are covered in lush grass between December and May, perfect for calving wildebeest.

Where the safari comes to you

The safari comes to Dunia, with the migrating wildebeest herds regularly passing the camp. Outside of the migration, there’s plenty more opportunity for wildlife spotting, too. During downtime, sink into a leather armchair with a cold drink in the open-sided dining tent and scan the sun-bleached plains for movement, or get lost in a great book before retiring to your tent for an afternoon snooze.

Conclusion

As you plan your Serengeti adventure, consider Dunia Camp your home away from home. It is where luxury meets nature, where you can witness the wonders of the wild and immerse yourself in local culture. Your journey to the Serengeti will be incomplete without experiencing the Exploring the Magic of Dunia Camp.

Activities at Dunia Camp

A typical day on safari at Dunia Camp
Serengeti National Park

We start the day early to find animals when they are most active, heading out on safari around dawn and again at dusk. Timing varies according to the season, but guests can expect the following from a typical day on safari.

Start your day early with a wake-up call and tea or coffee. Enjoy breakfast before departing for your morning game drive (or pack it as a picnic to take with you). You’ll return to camp mid-morning with a chance to freshen up before lunch.

After a leisurely lunch, enjoy a siesta. Read a book or just relax and enjoy the views from your private viewing deck. Refuel with afternoon tea and then depart for your afternoon/evening game drive with sundowners. You’ll be back in time for drinks at the bar and dinner—the perfect chance to unwind after a long day in the bush. You can plan your day with your guide if you have a private vehicle.

Our vehicles are either open-sided or closed with roof hatches, allowing you to stand for a better view. They are all fitted with charging points and fridges, so you can easily spend a whole day on safari.

Meals and refreshments
Dunia-Camp

The food at Dunia is prepared on-site by the chefs. During the rainy season, they buy fresh vegetables from the communities around Mugumu and source the rest of our food as locally as possible. Start the morning with a hearty cooked breakfast on the deck overlooking the Serengeti plains. Alternatively, you can eat when you return from your game drive, or we’ll pack breakfast for you to enjoy in the bush.

Lunch is a light buffet at camp or packed up for those who want to spend a whole day in the bush. After the evening game drive, a relaxed dinner is served at camp or a bush dinner under the stars.

Dunia is certified by Responsible Tourism Tanzania with the highest level of “Tree.” This certifies a fully integrated, responsible tourism approach embedded within daily operations. TripAdvisor also recognized Dunia with a 2020 Travelers’ Choice Award, reflecting that guests thoroughly enjoyed their camp experience and left favorable reviews throughout 2020.

The Serengeti is home to many species, including over 70 big mammals and over 500 bird species. The main event is The Great Migration, Africa’s second longest land migration, where around 1.5 million wildebeest, 500,000 Thomson’s gazelles, and 250,000 zebras travel in an endless cycle around the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem following the rains. But there’s much more besides the migration herds. You’ll find the Big 5 (lion — numbering around 3,500 — leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo) and other predators such as cheetah, spotted hyena, and wild dog (the latter mainly in the south). You might also spot hippos in the river, klipspringer, oribi and Coke’s hartebeest, serval (including unusual black melanistic varieties), bat-eared fox, and golden jackal. Then there are super-rare animals to look out for, including the aardwolf and ground pangolin.
