8 Day Camping Safari

This is a safari plan designed to catch an excitement of Adventure. A camping safari is highly rated as the best way for many travellers to experience the real wilderness of Tanzania. As to the fact that no other African country that has a greater variety of wild animals, reptiles and birds in their own natural habitats. Enjoy the encounters of the game drive in an open roof safari vehicle, and camping in a dome tent with a combination of accommodation in 3 Star hotels. Feel the untamed spirit of your roots as you will be in a bush camping and exploring the wilderness under the African stars and experience traditional African Tanzania culture. The evening is spent around the campfire listening to the sound of the dark African night - the distant roar of the Lion and the doleful, whooping "laugh" of the Hyena. All the safari camping tents are prepared for you by our safari crew and meals are prepared over a campfire by our professional camp cook.
