Introduction

Discover Africa lodging just as it should be here at Oliver's Camp in the heart of Tanzania's remote Tarangire National Park. This spectacular camping is located close to the wildlife-rich Silale Swamps and Minyonyo Pools where year-round sightings of cats, elephants and plains game are common.

Oliver's is intimate and personal, staffed by a world-class team that has worked together for many years to perfect a safari experience that guests consistently rank among their best.

Tarangire offers visitors huge herds of elephants and buffalos, and a remarkable concentration of big cats. Wild dog, kudu, oryx and gerenuk, can also be found here, along with arguably the best bird diversity in Africa (More than 550 species).

Welcome to Tarangire National Park, a beautiful and secluded location home to one of the highest elephant populations in the country. Our selection of Tarangire lodges offers a unique and personal experience within the park, surrounded by stunning baobab and acacia trees.

Pack your bags and come explore this beautiful corner of Tanzania!

Start the day with a Continental breakfast, with bacon and eggs to order, served in camp.

Lunches are light and fresh.

Dinners are three-course sit-down meals, with a traditional barbecue served once a week.

Picnic breakfasts and lunches are on offer if you prefer to eat while you are on a game drive.
