Where should I stay while on a Tanzanian safari?

The locations you visit while on your Tanzanian safari may provide you with priceless memories. We hope the following information will help you make decisions about the various types of accommodations that are available.

1.Hotels & Lodges

are simple to understand. These are long-term structures with sturdy walls! They have private rooms or cottages and are full-service establishments. They have lounges, restaurants, and private restrooms. A few have swimming pools. Many lodges are exquisite; they are constructed from local materials and draw inspiration from the environment and local designs. Hotels and lodges can be found both inside and outside of national parks. From affordable to extremely luxurious, there are many different types of hotels and lodges.

The opportunity to sleep under canvas is one of the main draws for many people of taking a Tanzanian safari. There are two very distinct choices:

2.Tented Camps

These camps are either permanent or semi-permanent, and they are typically located in areas with good game viewing. The Camps offer private, roomy canvas tents with many of the amenities of a lodge. They are frequently built on a sturdy foundation and feature beds, private restrooms, and delicious meals that are cooked for you and served in a special tent. These camps and "safari tents" are appealing because they allow you to sleep comfortably under canvas in the middle of nowhere.

There is no fencing around the camps. It is possible for wild animals to stray through, occasionally pausing to graze. As far as we are aware, the staff has not taught the animals how to unzip a heavy canvas tent, but there are always guards at the camps to walk you to and from your tent once it gets dark. The sounds of a zebra eating the grass outside your tent, lions roaring, or a giraffe munching on a nearby acacia tree can make your heart race at first, but they are thrilling and definitely enhance your safari experience.

Tented Camps in Tanzania Safaris fall into two main categories:

Permanent Tented Camps: These camps have "tents" that stay in one spot all year long. Raised decking, outdoor dining areas, and occasionally a swimming pool are common features. You will undoubtedly be able to find a permanent tented camp that suits your tastes and budget, with options ranging from ultra-luxurious to rustic.

Tented camps that are mobile or semi-permanent are typically found in the Serengeti. The primary distinction between these camps is that their location shifts based on various factors (usually the location of the Great Migration). In the Northern Serengeti, for instance, Mobile Camps might only be available from June through November. From December to April, the camp might relocate to Ndutu, in the Southern Serengeti. This provides access to the best wildlife viewing and aligns with the Great Migration's movement.

Tented camps' amenities and comfort levels typically reflect the company or lodging provider rather than the type of camp—permanent or mobile, for example. Please discuss your preferences and budget with your Dimbwiii Safari Planner as the amenities and costs of Tented Camps vary widely.

We can "mix and match" different types of lodging to suit your preferences, or your Safari Planner will be pleased to assist you in creating an itinerary with comparable accommodations.

3. Basic Camping Safaris (Tents on the ground)

On a basic camping safari, guests sleep in small private tents in designated campsites in or near National Parks. You sleep inside a sleeping bag on a roll-up mattress. Our safari crew sets up the camp every evening and prepares all your meals. Facilities at the campsites are basic. They include shared washrooms and showers.
