In the midst of towering baobabs and umbrella acacia woodlands lies Tarangire Safari Lodge. Resting on the escarpment ridge, unprecedented views are envisioned from every angle. Tarangire River rushes below, attracting a wide variety of birding and game viewing.

Accommodation comes in the form of comfortable thatched safari tents, blending in perfectly with the surroundings to offer an immersive natural experience. Each room contains en-suite facilities, solar-heated showers, and an ideally positioned verandah overlooking a watering hole for the chance to sit back, relax, and watch the wilderness unfold before you.

The lodge has an open-air dining room that caters for both homely hunger pangs and international cuisine. A bar and lounge area offer guests a space of blissful enjoyment during daylight hours, while the evening welcomes sundowners to the backdrop of astonishing sunsets and the soundtrack of the wild.

There is free Wi-Fi, but it’s recommended to disconnect from the web and reconnect with nature. If you want a memento from your stay, the gift shop has an array of handmade crafts that support the local community.
