WHERE YOU STAY ON SAFARI
CAN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A GOOD SAFARI AND AN AMAZING ONE.

To
find out more about individual safari
camps
and lodges select a country to the
right.
On
our safari itineraries you will also find links to many of the
safari camps and lodges you
would stay at, which include detailed
information for each property. We like to use the smaller,
more remote lodges and permanent tented
camps, and stay away from the large properties
that cater to big groups.

Accommodations generally fall into the following categories:
Luxury Safari Lodges - Intimate and luxurious,
these prosperities are often located on private
reserves with attached rooms or secluded cottages
designed in classic or exotic style. Most have
small pools, dinning and bar area's, library,
fire pits and personalized service. Good examles are the
Borana Lodge near Mt. Kenya, or the
Sanctuary Chichele Lodge in the South Luanwa National
Park in Zambia.
Permanent
Tented Camps - These prosperities give you
the feel of the outdoors with all the comforts
of lodges. Usually very small and isolated,
they range from comfortable walk-in tents with
en-suite facilities, to large luxurious canvas
structures supported with wooden frames built
upon stilts with private plunge
pools and indoor/outdoor showers. Most have
dinning tents or structures, lounges and fire
pits. Good examles are
Lake Masek Tented Camp (4 stars)
in the southern Serengeti, or
Mombo Camp (5+ stars) llocated in Botswana's Okavango Delta.
Mobile & Seasonal Camps- Erected prior to your arrival in private campsites or on private reserves,
accommodations can range from huge walk-in tents
with king size beds and full en-suite facilities,
to more modest dome tents with camp beds. All
are fully serviced with accompanying staff and
3 to 5 course meals are prepared by the camp
chefs.

Serengeti Exlusive Mobile Camp, our
Adventure Mobile Camp in Tanzanaia.
Classic
Safari Lodges - Usually colonial in style or with African
themes, most are fairly large and located around popular National Parks
and more visited areas, like the
Ngorngoro Serena Safari Lodge on the rim of the
Ngorongoro Crater. They have attached rooms, or bunglows in clusters, restaurants, bars and pools.
