Lake Victoria Tanzania

Rubondo Island Camp overlooks the vast waters of Lake Victoria. As the only camp in the wild and virtually uninhabited Rubondo Island National Park, it is a truly special place to experience. 

The park is a haven for chimpanzees — introduced as part of a groundbreaking rehabilitation project in the 1960s, as well as elephants, giraffes, hippos and shy sitatunga antelopes.  

The pristine Rubondo Island is 75 percent forest, which guests can explore on drives and walks while learning about the animals and plants that make up this extraordinary protected ecosystem. Wake up to the serene lake views from your beachfront cottage and enjoy catch-and-release-fishing the massive Nile perch and tilapia that dwell in the surrounding waters in the afternoon. Spend a night in our fly camp immersed in the forest wilderness.  

This lodge is located 20 km outside the Serengeti National Park on shores of Lake Victoria. The lodge has lush gardens and stunning views, Serenity on the Lake provides a wonderful backdrop to the blue waters of the lake. Serenity on the Lake is a great location to start or end a safari.
