Kon Tiki Kogatende Migration Camp

🌍 Tanzania

📍 North Serengeti

Kon Tiki Kogatende Migration Camp is an upper mid-range seasonal camp in the North Serengeti, positioned Jul–Oct to follow the wildebeest migration and river crossings. It’s aimed at travelers who want affordability with comfort, close to the Mara River action but without stepping into luxury price tiers. It’s especially appealing for adventurous couples and groups chasing the migration spectacle.

Pricing: typically $360–$400 per double in high season; around $215–$235 in low season (Mar–May, when camp may close).

Thoughtful comparisons: Same tier: Baobab Mara (upper mid-range; similar positioning) and Signature Serengeti (upper mid-range; central, same tier). Step up: Lemala Mara (luxury; polished guiding and positioning). Step down: Mara Kati Kati (mid-range; rustic, simpler).

Safari context: Being within reach of multiple crossing points, this camp offers good odds of seeing herds take the plunge, with less polished but authentic accommodation.

Rooms

Spacious tents with real beds, en-suite bathrooms (flush toilets, bucket showers), and verandas with camp chairs. Shared mess tent, fire pit, and solar power. More polished than basic mid-range, but still modest.

Meals

Meals include early tea/coffee, picnic breakfasts and lunches to maximize river time, and plated dinners back in camp. Dining is communal and hearty.
