Overview

About This Golf Safari

The Serengeti Signature is not a golf trip. It is an expedition into the upper reaches of what travel can be. Begin at Gran Melia Arusha with a welcome dinner and warm-up round at the nearby Arusha Golf Course. Fly to Singita Sabora Tented Camp in the Grumeti concession for two rounds at Serengeti National Park Golf Course, interspersed with game drives in one of Africa's most exclusive private reserves. A helicopter lifts you over the Serengeti for an aerial safari — tracking herds from above, landing on remote kopjes for champagne picnics that no road can reach. Transfer to Ngorongoro Crater Lodge — a baroque masterpiece perched on the crater rim — for a full-day crater descent and a round at the nearby highland course. The final act unfolds on andBeyond Mnemba Island, a private island in the Indian Ocean with just twelve bandas on the beach. Snorkel pristine reefs, dine barefoot on the sand, and play a casual sunset round on a pop-up beach course as the tide retreats. Twelve days. Five rounds. Three iconic lodges. One private island. This is the summit of golf safari.

Mnemba Island — Fifth Round Beach Golf & Farewell

Your fifth and final round is unlike any other: a casual beach-course experience on the island's tidal flats as the tide retreats, revealing firm sand perfect for an improvised layout with portable flags and tees. It is pure, joyful golf stripped to its essence — barefoot, oceanside, and utterly unforgettable. A farewell dinner on the beach completes the journey: lanterns, seafood, champagne, and the sound of the Indian Ocean.
