Four Seasons Serengeti Safari Lodge: Guest Tour & Review

[@liyaah85]

beautiful room. How was the safari there? did you see a lot of animals

[@clearedfortravel]

@@liyaah85 Yes, basically all major animals nearby except Rhino. Overall the safari was great. Next time I’d consider booking through a tour where I could spend a bit more time in different areas across serengeti to see different animals without having to do big drives each day. The disadvantage of using four seasons as home base the whole time was that it required some longer round trip drives to reach areas with lots of cheetahs, the great migration, and rhinos.

Is the greeting and drive to the hotel extra in cost? Also , do you know what the difference is Between the horizon watering hole and the Savanah watering hole room?

[@clearedfortravel]

@@user-xr7dk6fp4g It depends on the package you book. I booked an inclusive package called Discover Serengeti which included safari drives. I highly recommend it. And yes i think horizon means second floor and savannah means first floor. The second floor is a little bit nicer but not much.

@@clearedfortravel thank you for answering! How did the all inclusive meals and drinks work? Was there a specific time you get your meals? A specific dining area? Can you take your food up to your room if you please?

@@user-xr7dk6fp4gyes there are three included restaurants and they do have opening hours. I don’t think room service was included but it had a surcharge

@@clearedfortravel thank you! My last question, I promise! But how did you get your luggage to the hotel? From what I’ve read you can’t take luggage on the small shuttle planes . I was thinking of taking a travel backpack but it makes me nervous as I’m used to traveling with at least one large luggage.

@@user-xr7dk6fp4g you’ll need to book flights separately through an airline like precision air. So check their baggage policy. They absolutely allow bags including large checked bags - they just go under the plane as there is no space for larger carryons in the small cabin
