Discover the Majestic Maasai Kopjes

Getting There

• Private Vehicle

  If you have a private vehicle or are renting one, start from the Seronera area of Serengeti National Park. Head southwest on the main dirt road from Seronera, following signs towards the Maasai Kopjes. The drive should take approximately 30-45 minutes depending on road conditions. Keep an eye out for wildlife along the way, and be cautious of the road conditions.

• Guided Safari Tour

  Many visitors opt for guided safari tours to reach Maasai Kopjes. You can book a tour from major lodges in Serengeti, such as those in the Seronera area. Your guide will drive you directly to the Kopjes, typically as part of a game drive. This is a great option if you want to enhance your experience with local knowledge about the wildlife and terrain.

• Public Transportation (Safari Vehicle)

  Public transportation options are limited in the Serengeti, but you can take a shared safari vehicle from major lodges or camps. Check with your accommodation for scheduled trips to Maasai Kopjes. This option is usually more affordable than private tours, although you will need to coordinate with the schedule of the shared vehicle. Expect to pay around $50-$100 per person for a round trip, depending on the operator.

• Walking Safari

  For the more adventurous, some lodges offer guided walking safaris that include a trek to Maasai Kopjes. This experience allows you to explore the landscape up close and learn about the flora and fauna. Make sure to book this in advance, as it requires a guide. This option typically costs around $150-$250 per person, including a guide and any necessary permits.
