Places we trust
We have slept in every camp we recommend. From simple, friendly tented camps to the finest lodges on the Serengeti, chosen for location, guiding and hospitality.
Angalia Tented Camp
A friendly tented camp close to Mikumi National Park, a favourite for families on their first safari.
Butiama Beach
A relaxed beach lodge on Mafia Island and our base for whale shark swims, snorkelling and long empty beaches.
Crater Rim Camp
Private tents in the Ngorongoro highlands for an early start to the crater floor and walks with Maasai guides.
Jabali Ridge
Suites built among granite boulders above the Ruaha wilderness, with an infinity pool facing the sunset.
Kendwa Rocks
A lively beach resort in north-west Zanzibar where you can swim at any tide and watch the sun set into the ocean.
Kwihala Camp
A small, simple and beautiful tented camp in the heart of Ruaha, known for excellent walking and game drives.
Matemwe Lodge
Twelve sea-view bungalows on a coral outcrop facing Mnemba Atoll, with superb diving and snorkelling.
Roho ya Selous
Eight spacious tents on Lake Nzerakera with game drives, walks, boat safaris and fishing included.
Serengeti Migration Camp
A seasonal tented camp that moves with the wildebeest: the southern plains for the calving, the Mara River for the crossings.
Tandala Tented Camp
Raised tents just outside Ruaha’s gate, where elephants often walk through camp to the waterhole.
Tarangire Camping Safari
Our own camping safari: dome tents, a camp cook and nights by the fire under the baobabs. Used on our Afrikidos family adventure.
Udzungwa Forest Tented Camp
A peaceful camp at the edge of the rainforest, the base for the hike to Sanje Falls.
