Extraordinary Safari

Standard hotels are easy to understand. But when it comes to safari trips, we often hear hesitations—especially around the word “tent.” Rest assured, “tent” in Safari World doesn’t mean the same as a childhood camping trip.

These safari tents are often big and luxurious like high-end villas, with roomy interiors, private plunge pools, and en-suite bathrooms. Lodges are set in scenic spots overlooking open plains dotted with wildlife. In the evenings, you can dine or enjoy a sunset drink around a campfire, watching elephants and hippos visit nearby waterholes for a truly up-close experience.

One unique and exciting option is the mobile tented camp—especially common in Tanzania’s Serengeti. These camps shift locations 2–3 times a year to follow the path of the Great Migration. They offer an unbeatable front-row seat to the action. While they may not include plumbing or running water, they’re far from basic. Expect real beds with fresh linens, outstanding meals, and cozy, lantern-lit settings. You’ll have a pitcher of filtered water in your basin, and bucket showers are provided. It’s authentic, immersive, and surprisingly comfortable—perfect for those seeking a deeper connection with the wild.

Unlike mobile camps, permanent tented camps stay in one place year-round, allowing for more refined touches—like running water, elevated decks, bomas for outdoor dining, cozy fireplaces, and sometimes even swimming pools.

End your day by the crackling fire, dinner, and then proceed to sleep with the sounds of the wildlife just beyond your canvas walls—only now, with a few added comforts. Whether you prefer rustic charm or five-star luxury, we’ll pair you with the ideal stay tailored to your travel style.

Safari lodges are permanent buildings with solid walls, windows, and doors—offering the comfort and stability of a traditional hotel in the heart of the wild.

They’re a great fit if you prefer sealed spaces (with no unexpected visitors), value climate control like air-conditioning, are traveling with children who’ll appreciate a reliable swimming pool, or enjoy polished service with fine dining.

Lodges range in size from intimate properties with just a few suites to larger operations with 50+ rooms, and styles vary from rustic chic to ultra-modern luxury. With so many choices available, it’s not just about looks or reviews; it’s also about location. That’s why our travel experts begin by understanding what matters most to you—wildlife sightings, accommodations, or natural wonders—and craft a tailor-made itinerary accordingly.
