Kirawira is the epitome of luxurious colonially-styled safari camps. Commanding panoramic views over the endlessly rolling reaches and volcanic reefs of Serengeti National Park, it recalls a bygone era of explorers and pioneers. Personal valet service and superb cuisine make for the most satisfying of experiences. The 25 deluxe individual tents are set on wooden platforms, each graced with a large, opulently decorated double bedroom and bathroom. Best of all a private veranda affords spectacular views over the shimmering plains. A great variety of large game can be viewed in the lush vegetation around the camp.
