Lemala Kuria Hills Camp

A Sculpted Luxury Hideaway Above the Mara River

Lemala Kuria Hills Camp is an exclusive, design-led safari camp set among granite kopjes in the remote northern Serengeti. Blending contemporary architecture with organic materials, the camp offers a striking yet harmonious presence in the landscape.

Elevated suites, sweeping views, and a strong sense of privacy define the experience, while the surrounding wilderness delivers some of the Serengeti’s most dramatic wildlife encounters.

Location

Lemala Kuria Hills Camp is located in the northern Serengeti, close to the Mara River and the Kenyan border. Its position places guests near key Great Migration river crossing points while maintaining a secluded setting among rocky hills and wooded valleys.

Seasonality

The camp operates year-round. The peak migration season (July–October) brings wildebeest crossings and intense predator activity near the Mara River. Outside these months, the area remains quiet and scenic, with resident wildlife and a strong sense of isolation.

En-suite bathrooms with indoor and outdoor showers

 Verified The best, most thoughtful and memorable hiking tour I went with my dad on the 8 day Lemosho Route Kilimanjaro climb with Kiliclimb, and Moses and his team put together an absolutely incredible trip! Everything was flawless from start to finish, from the organization and service to the guides, crew, and overall experience.Our guides (Baraka and Godson) were the best and genuinely so kind and caring, checking in constantly and even doing daily wellness checks. They provided daily briefings and always clearly communicated what was ahead. What stood out to me even more was hearing the guides talk about how great Moses is and how much they enjoy working for him. That says a lot about the company and, in my opinion, really matters when choosing an outfitter!The food was spectacular the entire trip and clearly planned with altitude in mind. We had the best soup every day, plus amazing fish, chicken, beef, and yes, even pizza! The whole team was remarkable and so tuned into our needs, including setting up a private bathroom tent, which was a huge comfort.Moses went above and beyond personally as well. Before the trip, he reviewed my gear and flagged that I did not have warm enough layers for summit day, then loaned me a jacket and pants so I was properly prepared. He also arranged transportation to and from the airport, making it truly feel like a full package experience.I could not have asked for a better Kilimanjaro climb, and I highly, highly recommend Kiliclimb to anyone considering the mountain!

 Verified Kili, wow I did it. Großartige Tour mit einem tollen Veranstalter. Sehr gute Betreuung von einem perfekt vorbereitetem, zuverlässigen erfahren Team. Kann ich nur empfehlen, war sehr spaßig und voller neuer, schöner Eindrücke trotz Anstrengung, die eine Tour auf einen 5895 Meter hohen Berg, mit sich bringt.

 Verified Amazing Local Company A friend and I went on a 4-day private safari through Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti, and it was absolutely incredible. From start to finish, the Kiliclimb staff exceeded our expectations. After completing our Kilimanjaro trek, we were staying at a hotel in Arusha and were greeted by the team and picked up directly from the hotel, which made the transition seamless and stress-free.We were incredibly lucky to have Ombeni as our guide. Thanks to his deep knowledge of the parks and strong relationships with other guides and rangers, we saw every animal we hoped for. He constantly checked in with us, asking for feedback and what we wanted to focus on each day, which made the experience feel truly personalized.Ombeni was funny, kind, and genuinely made the trip unforgettable. And don’t sleep on his photography skills, he’s seriously talented! We couldn’t recommend this local company more. They also gave us t-shirts and safari hats which was a nice touch!

 Verified Unforgettable 4-Day Adventure – Onbeni is a Legend! Our 4-day trip through the Serengeti, Ndutu, and Ngorongoro was the highlight of our travels, and that is entirely thanks to our guide, Onbeni.From the start, Onbeni brought a high-energy, positive vibe that made every game drive an adventure. His "superpower" is undoubtedly his eyes—his ability to spot wildlife is incredible. The absolute highlight was when Onbeni was the first to spot a rare leopard, giving us a private viewing before any other vehicles arrived!We also spent an unforgettable time driving alongside the Wildebeest migration, witnessing the magic of the newborn babies in Ndutu. Onbeni’s professionalism and deep knowledge of the land made us feel safe and informed throughout. If you want a guide who is professional, energetic, and has a "sixth sense" for finding animals, ask for Onbeni!

No hidden fees, flexible schedule, and the team cared about every detail. 100% recommend for an amazing African safari experience!

 Verified Great experience! Kiliclimb organized an extremely wonderful safari overall. Our expectations were exceeded by far. From the organization, to the hospitality, to the experiences, accommodations, and personal relationship with our guide Ombeni. Ombeni did an outstanding job. He knew every national park very well and knew exactly where we could observe animals. He was very friendly and always responded to our needs. You couldn't ask for a better guide than Ombeni at your side. Communication with the Kiliclimb management also worked wonderfully. We would recommend a safari with Kiliclimb at any time. Asante sana!

 Verified Once-in-a-lifetime experience Our safari tour was a unique experience! We didn't expect to see so much! We saw the Big Five, we saw a wildebeest migration, we saw the birth of a wildebeest calf and much more. Our guide, Ombeni, accompanied us for seven days and made so much possible for us. His flexibility, warmth and knowledge were invaluable. We felt very comfortable and highly recommend Kiliclimb! Thank you for everything. Asante sana!
