TARANGIRE ACCOMMODATIONS

Tarangire Safari Lodge
This small, informal permanent tented camp in Tarangire National Park enjoys one of the best locations anywhere in northern Tanzania. Each of the 35 double tents overlooks the Tarangire River where a multitude of wildlife gathers in the dry season. The tents come complete with electricity, comfortable beds, running water, a flush toilet, and a solar heated shower. A thatched roof canopy protects your tent from the African sun. There are also four bungalows made of stone with thatched roofs and en suite bathrooms, which are perfect for triples and families. The dining area and bar offer magnificent views overlooking the Tarangire River and the baobab tree studded landscape of the park. Often the best game viewing is done right at the lodge, sitting on the veranda or by the pool.

Maramboi Tented Camp
Maramboi Tented Camp is a unique opportunity to experience and explore the Tarangire and Manyara ecosystem. A visit to this area is essential for anyone interested in the Rift Valley, Africa's bigger picture, evolution and the origins of mankind. During the wet season, the Manyara and Tarangire Pans fill with water, which attracts huge flocks of flamingos and other wading birds. The area is also the only place in Eastern Africa where it is possible to see the migration of wildebeest and zebra, between national parks. The strikingly spacious tents have been stylishly designed and perch along the Rift Valley, providing an amazing natural welcome to an area of extraordinary rich wildlife.
