Tarangire country is big and bold: our camp is the opposite…a little gem. Full of heart and soul, and tucked into a grove of secluded riverside bush, it is so much at one with the wild that animals hardly look up as they do their thing around us. Elephants often pass right through camp, and we can be completely absorbed into their secret lives, from the sweet comfort of our sun-slatted living space.
In the central part of Tarangire National Park, away from the busy north and in easy reach of the main river and Silale and Gursi Swamps plus other excellent game areas.

Our small, stylishly simple camp is in a quiet, secluded setting surrounded by fantastic walking territory and within easy reach of all the best wildlife areas. The camp combines airy thatched tents with a cool open-sided thatch mess. This area is great for walking, day and night drives, and particularly well known for big herds of buffalo and elephant, excellent general game and exceptional birdlife. Easily accessible, combines perfectly with our camps in the Serengeti, and on the Ngorongoro Crater, with no compromise on style and comfort, in a truly outstanding setting.
Six large, light safari rooms made of canvas and thatch with verandahs and in door and outdoor showers and flush loos. Open-sided, airy, grass thatched lounge and dining room furnished with hides, canvas and a touch of colourful textiles. The family tent consists of two en-suite bedrooms.
