Sero Tented Camp Kogatende is a mid-range seasonal camp in the North Serengeti, close to the Mara River. It’s designed for travelers who want to witness the great wildebeest crossings without the higher cost of luxury camps. While amenities are basic, the location advantage—being within striking distance of the river bends at dawn—is priceless for migration followers.

Pricing: typically $360–$390 per double in high season; around $215–$235 in low season (Mar–May, when the camp may close).

Thoughtful comparisons: Same tier: Mara Kati Kati Tented Camp by TWC (mid-range; similar canvas setup, central Kogatende) and Mara Pure Migration Tented Camp (mid-range; simple but flexible). Step up: Lemala Mara Tented Camp (luxury; prime guiding and positioning). Step down: Ang'ata Migration Bologonja Camp (mid-range; budget-friendly, similar area).

Safari context: Crossing days mean patience—be ready to spend hours at a bend, engines off, waiting for herd decisions. The reward is one of Africa’s most iconic spectacles.
