Tanzania Under Canvas

We proudly present our unique and exhilarating new tailor-made safari concept, Tanzania Under Canvas - Serengeti . Reaching far beyond the bounds of the traditional Tanzanian safari, we go where the animals are. Our tented, migratory camps will move around the Serengeti, year round, following directly in the footsteps of the animals.

During April and May, the Migration is generally to be found on the breathtakingly verdant short grass plains of the southern Serengeti. Experience the miracle of viewing tens of thousands newborn wildebeest calves. Sense heightened romance and sheer luxury in our tented wilderness camps, proudly featuring Tanzania's largest and most spacious mobile ensuite tents. Each tent comes with chic ensuite facilities, separate w.c.'s and romantic alfresco bucket showers. Complete with personalized private butler service, enjoy delicious Pan-African and traditional bush cuisine. This is the soul of Africa - no electricity and no running water - lose yourself in the relaxing solitude of the mighty Serengeti, far from civilization.

After your camping safari, spoil yourself at Ngorongoro Crater Lodge, Africa's award-winning African masterpiece.

Perched on the edge of the Ngorongoro Crater at the eastern edge of the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater Lodge is without doubt one of the most architecturally spectacular lodges in Africa. The Crater is a World Heritage Site and shelters one of the most beautiful wildlife havens on earth – some of Africa’s last black rhino are protected within its rim and black-maned lions stalk the grasslands. Inspired in design by the Maasai mud-and-stick manyatta, the Lodge comprises three separate and intimate camps, North Camp and South Camp (12 suites each) and Tree Camp (6 suites). The sumptuous suites are steeped in romance reminiscent of a bygone era, with stilted, handcrafted structures adorned in graceful antiques, grand chandeliers and Pan African treasures. All of this, however, remains subordinate to the magnificence of the verdant Crater views through the window of every room. Each suite is discreetly tended by a personal butler, who will bring you tea in bed, stoke your fireplace and even draw your bath, ready for your return from your safari and lavish picnic on the Crater floor. Guest areas include elegant sitting and dining areas, outdoor dining areas, viewing decks and a superb craft gallery, all with awe-inspiring views of the Crater below.
