Wild Wakati Camp: where wine meets wilderness in the heart of the Serengeti | News

At Enduata Camps’ Wild Wakati Camp, opened in 2026 by Tanzanian guide Michael Shayo and British hospitality expert Matt Wilkey, sundowners are recognized as a central part of the safari experience, elevating remote wilderness hospitality with a curated and highly considered wine and cocktail offering.

Far beyond the expectations of a typical safari lodge, the wine list has been carefully selected to bring balance, freshness and depth to life in the bush – from crisp, expressive white wines enjoyed over long alfresco lunches to structured red wines poured as the sun sets over the Serengeti. Each selection has been chosen to complement both the climate and the moment, enhancing the sense of place without sacrificing quality. In addition, a creative cocktail program uses local ingredients and premium spirits, reimagining the classic sundowner as a bespoke, sensory ritual. The result is an experience that feels both immersive and refined, a reflection of Enduata’s broader ethos of low-impact luxury, delivered with precision, character and quiet sophistication.
