Pumzika Luxury Safari Camp
Stillness. Solitude. Safari, Refined.

A Quiet Retreat in the Heart of the Wild

Tucked away in a secluded corner of the central Serengeti, Pumzika Luxury Safari Camp offers an experience that speaks not through extravagance, but through stillness, authenticity, and thoughtful comfort. It is here—surrounded by the endless plains, golden grasses, and timeless rhythms of nature—that you find space to rest, to reflect, and to truly feel the soul of Africa.

Pumzika means to rest—and that is precisely what this sanctuary invites you to do.


Understated Luxury – A Camp Designed for Peace and Presence

Each suite at Pumzika is a celebration of elegant simplicity and natural beauty:

  • En-suite canvas tents with warm wood finishes and natural textures

  • King or twin beds with crisp linens and mosquito netting

  • Private verandas offering views of the savannah’s ever-changing light

  • Solar power, eco-friendly bath amenities, and hot running water

  • Daily housekeeping with personal touches that reflect quiet care

Here, you are surrounded by nature but wrapped in comfort—where every detail is designed to soothe, not to overwhelm.


Your Safari, Your Rhythm – Personalized Experiences with Heart

Pumzika embraces the essence of slow travel—where the safari unfolds gently, meaningfully, and in tune with you:

  • Warm, intuitive service from a small, dedicated team

  • Private game drives with expert guides attuned to the land

  • Bush walks, birdwatching, and sundowners by the fire

  • Cozy lounge and dining areas that encourage both connection and solitude

  • Welcoming to couples, solo travelers, and small groups seeking depth over speed

We don’t rush the experience—we let it rise, naturally.


Dining with Depth – Simple Ingredients, Soulful Meals

At Pumzika, food is part of the journey—nourishing, thoughtful, and full of local flavor:

  • Full-board dining with seasonal menus crafted daily

  • Fresh ingredients sourced locally and prepared with creativity

  • Bush breakfasts, fireside dinners, and sundowners in scenic spots

  • Wines, spirits, and refreshments served with warmth and generosity

  • Special dietary needs accommodated with care and flexibility

Every meal is served with intention—and often, a view.

Pumzika Luxury Safari Camp
Rest Deeper. Feel Closer. Safari, Unrushed.

For those who seek quiet over crowds, essence over extravagance, and meaning over motion—Pumzika is more than a camp. It’s a return to what matters most.

Pumzika Luxury Safari Camp
Serengeti’s Quiet Soul. Intimate Comfort. Timeless Wilderness.

Where Stillness Speaks and the Wild Feels Close

Nestled in a peaceful corner of the Serengeti’s central plains, Pumzika Luxury Safari Camp invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with the essence of the wild. Here, the soundtrack is natural—birdsong at dawn, the distant call of lions, and the whisper of wind through tall grasses.

Pumzika, meaning “to rest” in Swahili, is more than a name—it’s a promise. A promise of serenity, of space, and of an authentic safari experience that leaves a lasting impression on both heart and soul.


Elegant Simplicity – Designed for Peace, Built for Comfort

Our tented suites are a gentle blend of rustic charm and quiet refinement, created to immerse you in nature without sacrificing comfort:

Uforgetable safari 5/5 We had been communicating on Whatsapp from my home country. They prepared various options at my request and were very responsive and kind. After arriving in Arusha, they picked us up at our hotel and left us at Kilimanjaro Airport as per our request. The safari was amazing! The lodges exceeded expectations, and the food there was also nice. The tour guide was so kind and fun, making the experience truly enjoyable. We saw all the Big Five and many other animals! It was an unforgettable experience!

Words cannot explain how amazing this experience is Lovely/amazing/once in a life time/crazy/incredible… words cannot justify the experience that we have had with this tour, a gentleman called felix is who we booked our safari with and he picked us up personally from the airport and took us to our first hotel for the night in arush he was lovely and very kid hearted and hospitable, our driver was also very nice and very educated and alert to make sure we didn’t miss out on any of the amazing animals… and we saw lots, antelope/zebras/wild beasts/lions/rhinos/elephants/giraffes just to name a few… the camp site looked amazing however we had booked tented lodges before hand and regretted it incredibly when we had seen the camp sites but non the less the tented camps were also amazing, the food was incredible both on the safari and in the lodges and it was nice to have picnics with the group, I would 10000% advise you to book with these guys as just a recommendation is not enough, I hope to be back in the near future and will be booking with these guys again :)

Amazing Day To Climbing Mountain Kilimanjaro My husband and I reserved a one-day hike to Mandara Hut on Kilimanjaro with our guide, Mr. Joel. He picked us up from the hotel at 6 am and returned us by 8 pm. Mr. Joel ensured our comfort throughout the day, attending to all our needs during the hike. We highly recommend him to anyone considering a Kilimanjaro trek.

Kilimanjaro day hike materuni waterfall and hotspring "Thrilled with the Kilimanjaro private day hike to Materuni Waterfall and Hot Spring by Kilipath African Safaris! Seamless logistics, a personalized guide, and stunning landscapes made it a highlight of my Tanzanian journey. Materuni Waterfall and the soothing hot spring were an unbeatable combo. Highly recommend Kilipath African Safaris for an enriching blend of nature and culture in Kilimanjaro's heart!"
