Tanzania safari Hotels
Throughout Tanzania safari Hotels, we offer a variety of places to stay, from simple to luxurious. We prefer smaller properties, where you can be assured of personal service and attention to detail, and opt for accommodation in scenic locations so that you can enjoy the wildlife as well as stunning views.
We’ll find you an authentic safari camp where you can experience the magic of waking to the sunrise in your tent or, if you’d prefer, a luxurious tree-top lodge. On the beach, we have chosen characterful places, from simple cottages to stylish lodges on private islands.
1.Singita Sasakwa Lodge.
Singita Sasakwa is a premier choice among Tanzania safari hotels, offering a blend of 1920s Edwardian luxury and breathtaking natural beauty. Perched on a hill within the private Grumeti Reserves, this elegant manor house provides an exclusive safari experience far from the crowds.

2.Namiri Plain
Namiri Plains is a private and exclusive safari concession located in the eastern part of Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park. It is particularly famous for its high concentration of big cats, especially lions and cheetahs.
The area was a long-term cheetah research site and was closed to the public for over 20 years, which allowed the predator populations to grow undisturbed. This history has made it a prime destination for a highly intimate and uncrowded safari experience, with a single camp operating in the vast concession.
3.Sanctuary Kichakani Camp
Sanctuary Kichakani Camp is a luxurious and eco-friendly mobile tented camp in the Serengeti that provides a front-row seat to the Great Migration. The camp’s unique value is its ability to move with the herds, ensuring guests are always positioned in the heart of the action.
The camp relocates seasonally to three different areas of the Serengeti:
- Southern Serengeti (December to March): To witness the spectacular wildebeest calving season on the short-grass plains.
- Central Serengeti (May to July): To be in a prime location for the start of the river crossings and to see resident wildlife.
- Northern Serengeti (July to November): To witness the iconic Mara River crossings, where the herds face off against crocodiles.
Despite being a mobile camp, Sanctuary Kichakani doesn’t sacrifice comfort. Each of the ten private tents features a comfortable king-size bed, an en-suite bathroom with a bucket shower and hot water, and a private veranda. The main mess tent and dining area offer a cozy and intimate atmosphere, providing a perfect base for game drives and evening sundowners in the wild

The lodge itself is a masterpiece of design, seamlessly integrated into a rocky landscape overlooking a gorge and a permanent river. Each of the eight luxurious suites is a secluded sanctuary with an elegant blend of modern and natural elements, complete with a private deck and a large soaking tub.
Because Mwiba is in a private reserve, guests are not subject to the rules of a national park. This allows for a more flexible and intimate safari, with a private vehicle and guide allocated to each booking. Activities include off-road game drives, walking safaris, and night drives, all of which are rare and highly sought-after experiences. Beyond the wildlife, the lodge offers cultural visits with local tribes, such as the Hadzabe and Datoga, adding another layer of authenticity to the experience.
For those seeking an unrivaled level of privacy and sophistication, Mwiba Lodge is the pinnacle of Tanzania safari hotels, providing a truly personalized and unforgettable escape.

Basic Camping (Budget Option)
Budget camping fits in the tented camps category. The experience is however completely different, making it deserve to be regarded separately.
You get to stay in public campsites, inside bivouac tents, sleeping on mattresses laid on the tent floor, or in sleeping bags. Basic washroom facilities are available in the public campsites, and are shared by everyone at the campsite. Campsites are the most basic of accommodations in terms of facilities and amenities. However, out here you will most likely have the most authentic experience and get as close to nature as nowhere else.
Safari Tented Camps & Lodges (Mid-Range Option)
Safari Tented camps are made up of large, walk in, canvas tents set up on permanent frames. These camps are generally smaller than lodges and have the amenities similar to that of a lodge or hotel such as separate en-suite bathrooms, restaurants and swimming pools. The tented camps aim to provide all the comforts of a lodge while giving guests a smaller, intimate, tented yet luxurious safari experience. Same it ranges from three-star levels to ultimate five-star luxury.
