• Just a short note to convey our appreciation for the wonderful trip we had through Tanzania with Nature Discovery. We were most impressed with the way the trip was organised, with everything just "happening" for us... Nothing was too much trouble for them to organise, from arranging to recharge batteries, to cooking special dishes for us. The meals were tasty and definitely sufficient; we were constantly impressed at the tasty, plentiful food that was served up, considering the fairly limited cooking resources available. We were enriched by learning about the Maasai culture from Sambeki in Longido. Our game drives with Mbise were truly amazing. His knowledge of the birds and animals is excellent; and he certainly made the game-viewing experience really special for all of us. He’s a great driver too. We were very privileged to see the quantity, and diversity, of animal, bird and plant life that we did. We certainly would recommend Nature Discovery to anyone considering a trip to Tanzania."

Lodge and permanent camp safaris

Tanzania has a variety of safari lodges and permanent tented camps, ranging from 5 star luxury to basic hostel-type accommodation. These are permanent structures in fixed locations (as opposed to our mobile camps which can be set up anywhere). Whether you require rose petal strewn baths with champagne breakfasts, or  just a roof over your head and clean water, we can help you choose the best accommodations to match your interests and budget.

It’s important that your accommodations fit into the overall integrity of your itinerary taking into account seasonal changes in wildlife concentrations and weather conditions.

Email us to ask questions about specific accommodations or to start planning your safari. We can send you sample itineraries and prices based on the time of year your want to travel, or dive right in and start building a trip for you based on your interests and budget.

We live and work in Tanzania and we travel as much as we can, getting first hand experience of  camps and lodges. Unlike many safari companies we are not aligned with certain chains of lodges. What this means is we are free to make recommendations for the sole purpose of giving you the best safari experience possible. There’s no point in staying in a wonderful lodge if it’s hours away from the best seasonal wildlife viewing. And you don’t want to stay in a lodge simply because a company is obligated to fill beds.

Our goal is to make your safari dreams a reality, and we custom design each trip accordingly. Contact us and let us put our expertise to work for you.
