The world class staff! Whoever hired the team did an excellent job. The food was great! Our guide was exceptional. The wildlife in the Serengeti was incredible!
It was cold in the tent and it was the most expensive lodge we stayed at and it didn’t have the same amenities as the others so it was very overpriced.

Bush breakfast - the best way to start the day
7.0
Staff is very welcoming, they prepared a cake as a surprise for a celebration.
Food was also great considering how remote the place is.
Experience of being in the middle of the park is an adventure (can hear lions from the tent)
Value proposition.
As it is in a very remote area, there are some limitations that impacted cleanliness (bed bugs)

The location is stunning right in the heart of the serengeti. We got a very warm welcome and a drink which was very refreshing after being in the jeep. The tents are fab really comfy and clean with everything you need. A great cosy bed. The food was first class lots of choice for dinner and lovely packed lunches. Breakfast was fab lots of fruit and Breads eggs and pancakes. The staff all worked really hard to make our stay memorable. They have a well stocked bar at reasonable prices and a lovely campfire for a chat after dinner. We would def recommend

I loved everything about this camp. Love how much detail was paid to every details. The restaurant tent was comfortable and friendly. The food was great. The communal tent was absolutely cozy and a great place to play games or read a book or just sit outside and watch nature in front of you. The tents were very comfortable. The shower and running water was exceptional.
There was nothing I did not like.

The staff were incredible! We spent Christmas 2022 there and they made it feel very special with the extra touches, champagne and small Christmas tree gifts.
Frank, Anton, Oscar and the rest of the team went out of the way to help us in whatever way they could. The chef cooked great meals and was very accommodating of our daughter who has an allergy to lactose. I can’t speak more highly of the staff.
The accommodation for a family was wonderful. It had a central living room, with an en suite bathroom on either side. There were board games to play in the central lounge area.
Just lovely!
We did a self drive and enjoyed the freedom. We did get stuck in the mud once (rainy season), but one of the other vehicles quickly helped us out.
We had the best time! Thank you Mawe!

Extremely friendly and helpful staff. They made us feel right at home and took care of our every need.
Herds of elephants and water buffaloes pass by several times during our stay. Hyenas and lions around us. Truly amazing experience and the best Safari experience we‘ve ever had. Good food, quiet location.

-Great Location in the heart of Serengeti Park,
-Staff at Mawe Camp were super nice,
-The tent is very comfy,
We asked for a driver for the Game Drive (driver from a company named "Kilidove") which was not really customer oriented, contrary to the staff at the Camp...

As far as a classic tented safari experience goes, it couldn’t be any better. In the middle of nature, far away views and excellent staff.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Mawe camp. The location was good, surrounded by wild nature and animals. The staff was so helpful and kind, they made us feel very comfortable, and the food was amazing. Highly recommend this place!

This is an once in your lifetime experience. We loved staying in the camp for two nights. This is al about the location. Safari tents are nice and staff is friendly.
During arrival there is so much time spend about explaining and talking about the tipping box that it felt as too much and not very welcoming .

We spent 2 nights at Mawe Camp and we loved it! The tents are located in the middle of Serengeti park, they are well equipped and confortable. The food at night was good and the staff helpful. We also booked our transferts and game drive with the camp’s agency which was really great
6.0
The location was good the setup was great and the super friendly staff, the food was satisfactory giving the fact that we were in the middle of wilderness. The manager did his best to make our stay more comfortable. I’d like to thank him and other great staff.
They have some maintenance and plumbing issues, the sink drain was leaking out. The hot water was not always available, the lobby bathroom was a mess! We had some itchy rashes during our stay there, we ,as physicians, believe it’s bed bugs rash.

Location was good especially if one wanted to explore the eastern side of Seronera and Gol Koppies. Approximately 26km from Seronera. Lots of "cats" in the area in June as the grass is shot. Tent was spacious and showers hot. 3 course dinner was well presented and tasty. We ordered breakfast and lunch boxes - they were perfect. Delicious filter coffee served at sunrise. Staff attentive to clients safety and escorted us to our tents after dark. Comfortable lounge tent.
Ngare Nyanuki 1 is an area had other tented camps that were visible from Serengeti Mawe. This was the only negative for Serengeti Mawe.
