Little Oliver’s a relatively new camp, and the little brother of our favourite camp in the Tarangire National Park. Only a kilometre downstream of Oliver's Camp, Little Oliver’s is located perfectly to take full advantage of this untouched, spectacular wilderness.

Oliver’s Camp is our favourite camp in the Tarangire National Park. It is a lovely, friendly, rustic camp in probably the best game viewing area in the park. It’s definitely worth a visit if you’re interested in a real, authentic safari experience. Providing that you go between July and November, this camp offers one of the best experiences on the northern circuit.

Tarangire is the most under-appreciated parks in Northern Tanzania. Ndovu Camp is located deep into the park and provides and excellent value, luxury safari option where guests can enjoy excellent game viewing and the comforts of a great lodge. With most guests only visiting the very Northern reaches of the park, staying closer to the central regions, away from these areas, is key to getting the best out of Tarangire.

Opened in 2014, this is one of Tanzania’s newest camps and a classic Nomad safari experience. Tucked away in a secluded area of Tarangire National Park, this is a good option for those wanting Nomad’s tried and tested combination of luxury, environmental awareness and great guiding.
Our View
Chem Chem is a luxurious lodge in a beautiful location but it is not for those wanting a pumping safari lodge. It is about taking things slow and seeing another side to safari. Great for the few who have the time and the budget.
Swala is probably the most luxurious camp in the Tarangire National Park. The bandas are all very smartly furnished and comfortable. It is situated in probably the best game viewing area of the park, fantastic for game drives and walking safaris. It should not be compared to Olivers, as it’s very different in style. The location is just off a swamp, thus attracting huge numbers of elephant during the dry season.
Tarangire Treetops run by Elewana, a trusted safari operator with some of Tanzania’s top properties in their portfolio. The camp itself is amazing. The rooms, the layout, the views. It’s an ideal setting for a safari camp and the quality of the product really shines through. But the only drawback is that the camp is located outside the park. This isn’t the most appropriate of locations when there are some excellent properties inside the park. Our first choice property here is Olivers Camp, then Swala which are both in the park, and Tarangire Treetops would next.
Probably the pick of the Sopa lodges in Tanzania as it offers a somewhat intimate experience (considering the numbers of rooms), in a great spot for game viewing. Being a Sopa lodge it is rather dated but it serves as a brilliant money saver in an excellent position of the park. Ideally you want to be a bit further south and stay at Olivers or Swala which are more expensive but the extra cost is certainly justifiable. They are in great locations and they are small tented camps.
