Ol Oret weaves the tapestry of life across northern Tanzania — luxury safari lodges rooted in the land, from the endless plains of the Serengeti to the foothills of Arusha.
About Ol Oret
The Ol Oret knot tells a single story: paths that cross, part and return — like the great migration itself. Born in Tanzania and shaped by the landscapes we call home, Ol Oret creates safari experiences that honour the land, its wildlife and its people.
From the wildlife-rich plains of the western Serengeti to the green foothills of Arusha, every Ol Oret property is designed to blend into its surroundings — rooted, not imposed. We believe the best journeys are unhurried: fewer stops, deeper ground, real connection.
Locally guided, community-anchored experiences on ancestral ground.
Serengeti, Arusha and Manyara — three threads, one journey.
Eco-friendly travel that leaves the land richer than it was found.
Destinations
Each Ol Oret destination carries its own character. Together they form the tapestry of a complete northern Tanzania safari.

Coming soonSerengeti · Robanda
Located in the wildlife-rich plains of Robanda on the north-western edge of Serengeti National Park, Ol-Oret Grumeti offers an exceptional safari escape where luxury meets one of the most dramatic wildlife landscapes on earth.
The lodge is strategically positioned just a few kilometers (15 minutes' drive) from the Serengeti Ikoma entrance gate, one of the main access points into the Serengeti's western corridor and central plains. Serengeti Ikoma Gate sits close to Robanda and provides quick access for daily game drives into the park's wildlife-rich ecosystems.
The lodge is also conveniently located near Ikoma Airstrip, allowing guests to arrive by scenic flight from Arusha in about one to two hours before a short transfer to the lodge. From the lodge, guests can reach the heart of the Serengeti within a short drive, while also enjoying the benefits of being outside the park where exclusive activities such as walking safaris and night game drives are possible.
The area around Robanda lies directly along the route of the legendary Great Migration, when millions of wildebeest and Plains zebra move across the Serengeti ecosystem.
Within driving distance to the north lies the dramatic Mara River, where between July and October the migration reaches its most iconic moment as massive herds gather and attempt the dangerous river crossings watched by predators and crocodiles.
Because of this unique location, guests staying at Ol Oret Grumeti Luxury Lodge are perfectly positioned to explore three major safari regions:

Enjoy the game drives in the Serengeti all year around. The unique positioning of our lodge enables you to explore the central Serengeti game viewing and the great migration.
An exclusive after-dark safari revealing the hidden, nocturnal side of the Serengeti — where predators hunt and the wilderness truly comes alive.
Guided bush walks (where permitted, often in nearby conservancies), bird watching and photography experiences and exploring the remote western Serengeti ecosystem (Robanda area) known for resident wildlife year-round.
Visits to nearby Maasai communities and learning about local traditions, lifestyle, and conservation.
Enjoy a beautiful breakfast in the bush after an early game drive in the morning.
Enjoy a glass of wine and cocktails under the skies after an afternoon game drive. One of the safari highlights is sitting around the camp fire, listening to the sounds of the wild, watching the sun go down and watching the never-ending sky.
A hot air balloon safari over the Serengeti National Park is a breathtaking sunrise experience where guests float silently above the plains, spotting wildlife from a unique aerial view. After landing, the adventure ends with a champagne bush breakfast, served in the wild under acacia trees — combining luxury, exclusivity, and unforgettable scenery in one experience. This experience starts at 4.30am and the safari in the sky is 50 to 90 minutes depending on the weather.
After a day on a game drive, pamper yourself with a relaxing and rejuvenating massage. There is a choice of a 1 hour 30 minutes body massage, a head massage, a manicure or pedicure.
