Dunia Camp

Serengeti

Dunia Camp

Dunia Camp is a permanent tented camp in the south-central Serengeti, with access to the Moru Kopjes and Seronera wildlife areas. The camp’s south-central position brings access to a mix of river habitats, open plains and granite kopjes. Resident predators provide interest outside migration periods, while seasonal herds can pass through the wider area. A small tented layout and the surrounding valley give Dunia its own character within a park where camp location meaningfully changes the experience.

Entamanu Private

Ngorongoro

Entamanu Private

Entamanu Private is an exclusive-use highland retreat on the north-western rim of the Ngorongoro Crater. It is a place to combine one of Tanzania’s best-known wildlife experiences with privacy, fresh mountain air and time spent in the surrounding landscape. The camp has its own lounge and dining room, giving families and friends a comfortable base away from a larger lodge’s communal spaces. Its position makes the Crater part of the stay from the moment you arrive, rather than simply a day excursion.

Jabali Private House

Ruaha

Jabali Private House

Jabali Private House provides an exclusive home in Ruaha National Park, suited to a family or small group travelling together. This is a separate safari home within Jabali’s rocky setting, with Ruaha’s woodland, baobabs and wildlife beyond the deck. Its three-bedroom arrangement, private outdoor spaces and dedicated guiding distinguish it from booking several rooms in a shared lodge. The emphasis is on travelling as one party and enjoying a flexible household rhythm between outings.

Jabali Ridge

Ruaha

Jabali Ridge

Jabali Ridge is a contemporary lodge built among granite boulders in Ruaha National Park, with views across woodland and baobabs. The surrounding landscape brings together Ruaha’s rocky outcrops, woodland and seasonal waterways. Lion, elephant and other wildlife are the focus of outings, while the kopje itself shapes life at the lodge. Rather than an enclosed hotel building, suites, decks and open communal spaces create a series of places from which to appreciate the bush.

Kiba Point

Nyerere

Kiba Point

Kiba Point is a private safari retreat beside the Rufiji River in Nyerere National Park. It is reserved for one group, with four open-fronted cottages and a dedicated team looking after your stay. The combination of river views, private plunge pools and varied safari activities makes it an appealing alternative to a trip built entirely around game drives. It suits families and friends who want to explore a wilder part of southern Tanzania while enjoying the freedom of a camp to themselves.

Kilindi

Zanzibar Archipelago

Kilindi

Kilindi is an intimate villa retreat on Zanzibar’s north-west coast, near Kendwa, with white-domed pavilions scattered through extensive tropical gardens. It is particularly appealing after safari, when private outdoor space, a personal pool and an unhurried day matter more than a busy resort programme. The accommodation and ocean-facing shared areas have a distinctive architectural character, making the property feel individual rather than part of a conventional beach-hotel formula.

Kokoko Camp

Ruaha

Kokoko Camp

Kokoko Camp is an exclusive-use expedition camp beside Ruaha’s seasonal Mwagusi River, built around intimate wildlife experiences and time outdoors. The sandy Mwagusi riverbed, forest edge and surrounding baobabs form the backdrop to a deliberately intimate stay. The camp is booked for one party, allowing the guide to respond to interests and conditions rather than follow a shared timetable. Its retractable tents, fire-cooked meals and private exploration create a distinctive way to experience Ruaha.

Lamai Private

Serengeti

Lamai Private

Lamai Private is a small, exclusive-use lodge in the northern Serengeti, designed for families and friends who want their own corner of the national park. Set around the Kogakuria Kopje, it combines a broad view over the plains with a dedicated camp team and private safari arrangements. It makes an appealing base for a group that values time together as much as wildlife viewing, with a swimming pool, generous decks and space to settle into a comfortable daily rhythm.

Mkombe’s House

Serengeti

Mkombe’s House

Mkombe’s House is an exclusive-use safari home in the northern Serengeti, built around the needs of families and friends. It has the freedom of a private house, the support of a dedicated team and a setting overlooking the plains from the Kogakuria Kopje. A swimming pool, children’s pool and enclosed snug give it a different emphasis from a conventional safari camp. It suits travellers who want excellent wildlife country alongside space for children to relax and adults to enjoy time together.

Namiri Plains

Serengeti

Namiri Plains

Namiri Plains places you in the eastern Serengeti, where open grasslands and resident predators make wildlife the focus throughout the year. The setting is especially associated with lion and cheetah, with resident plains game sustaining wildlife interest beyond the migrating herds. Low buildings and wide horizons create a feeling of space, while the water source near camp brings another focus to the view. It is a Serengeti stay shaped by its eastern location and predator habitats.

Olakira Migration Camp

Serengeti

Olakira Migration Camp

Olakira Migration Camp moves between northern Serengeti and the Ndutu area to follow the changing focus of the Great Migration. In the north, its wildlife focus includes the Mara River crossing areas; in the south, it is positioned for the Ndutu calving season and predators drawn to the herds. The camp therefore offers two distinct seasonal settings under one name. Canvas accommodation and stargazing spaces keep the experience close to the environment at each location.

Oliver’s Camp

Tarangire

Oliver’s Camp

Oliver’s Camp occupies a quieter part of southern Tarangire, close to the Silale Swamps and their dry-season concentrations of wildlife. Southern Tarangire combines baobabs, woodland and the Silale wetland landscape. During the dry months, permanent water draws wildlife into this part of the park, giving the location a particular seasonal significance. The camp’s open decks and traditional tents allow that landscape to remain present during quiet hours as well as on a guided outing.

Roho ya Selous

Nyerere

Roho ya Selous

Roho ya Selous sits near Lake Nzerakera in Nyerere National Park, combining conventional wildlife drives with the waterways of southern Tanzania. The lake, palm-lined waterways and surrounding bush create a different environment from Tanzania’s northern grasslands. Hippos and crocodiles are part of the waterside experience, while land-based outings seek the park’s broader wildlife. Its location and programme make it a varied safari base where time on the water is as much part of the story as driving.

Serengeti Explorer infinity pool and broad deck at dawn

Serengeti

Serengeti Explorer

Serengeti Explorer is a contemporary lodge in the Nyaboro Hills, overlooking the south-central Serengeti from an elevated position. It offers a different kind of safari stay from a small tented camp, with a broad range of rooms, several dining venues and activities that continue after the game drive finishes. The outlook is a central part of the experience, but so are the pool, photography facilities and opportunities to spend a more varied day at the lodge.

Tarangire Treetops

Tarangire

Tarangire Treetops

Tarangire Treetops is one of northern Tanzania’s most recognisable lodges, with elevated rooms built among mature baobab and marula trees. It sits in Randilen Wildlife Management Area, outside Tarangire National Park, combining access to the park’s wildlife with activities in the surrounding conservation landscape. The appeal is as much the experience of staying above the ground as the game viewing: private balconies, open views and a distinctive sense of space.

The Highlands

Ngorongoro

The Highlands

The Highlands offers a distinctive base on the forested slopes of Olmoti in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, combining crater wildlife with highland exploration. Olmoti’s wooded slopes, rolling hills and volcanic scenery distinguish the location from the grassy plains farther north. The domes frame this highland landscape, while excursions can reach the wildlife of the Ngorongoro Crater. Its appeal is therefore wider than a convenient overnight stop: the surrounding terrain, architecture and guided walks each contribute to the stay.

The Retreats at Namiri Plains

Serengeti

The Retreats at Namiri Plains

The Retreats at Namiri Plains offer a private base for families and friends in the eastern Serengeti’s predator-rich grasslands. Here, the appeal combines the eastern plains’ resident wildlife with the freedom of a dedicated team. A group can have its own lounge, meals and guiding arrangements while still benefiting from the main camp nearby. The setting retains Namiri’s open horizons and access to big cat country, rather than introducing a different Serengeti wildlife area.

The Retreats at Sayari Camp

Serengeti

The Retreats at Sayari Camp

The Retreats at Sayari Camp bring a more private safari experience to the northern Serengeti, near the Mara River. The setting is the same northern wildlife region that makes the main camp appealing, with the Mara River and resident game nearby. The difference is in how you live and explore: a self-contained home, private guiding and meals planned for your party. This makes the accommodation arrangement central to the experience, alongside the location.

Ubuntu Migration Camp bedroom opening towards the Serengeti

Serengeti

Ubuntu Migration Camp

Ubuntu Migration Camp follows the Serengeti’s seasonal wildlife movements, using northern and southern locations to give guests access to the migrating herds. Its northern Lamai Wedge and southern Kusini settings give two versions of the mobile-camp experience. Both are chosen around seasonal wildlife access, with a modest footprint and comfortable canvas accommodation. In the south, the hillside location looks over broad plains; the northern stay introduces a different landscape beyond the Mara River and opportunities for guided walking.

Usangu Expedition Camp

Ruaha

Usangu Expedition Camp

Usangu Expedition Camp explores the remote wetlands and floodplains in southern Ruaha, where safari tourism supports the area’s conservation. The Ihefu wetland, floodplains and miombo woodland provide a broad ecological setting for the stay. Birdlife and less familiar antelope species add interest alongside larger wildlife. The experience combines a small camp with guiding and interpretation, inviting guests to understand why this part of the Ruaha landscape matters as well as observe its animals.
