Sitting beneath giant ebony trees, Camp Moremi brings true meaning to the word safari in the Xakanaxa area of the Moremi Game Reserve. Game drives take place in open 4x4 vehicles, both in the morning and late afternoons, there are frequent sightings of lions, leopards and cheetahs as well as wild dogs. Alternatively, you can explore the Xakanaxa Lagoon and surrounding Okavango channels by motorboat.

Rebuilt a few years ago the camp has 12 modern thatched safari tents and a family room with two separate bedrooms and a shared bathroom. All have decks with views over the reserve and Wi-Fi in the bedrooms only. You’ll also find a swimming pool with a lovely sun deck and a restaurant. A sunken bar built around an old termite mound is just the place to share tales of your adventures.

Activities include morning and afternoon game drives, boat trips and bird watching. The guides will use their knowledge to help you get the most out of your visit, hopefully, you’ll see herds of elephants grazing or a pride of lions camouflaged in the long grass, the list is almost endless.

Other Options

Escape the hustle and bustle for a serene retreat on Lazy Lagoon, a private island 2km off the Swahili Coast, where you'll find 9 kilometres of uninterrupted beach and the freedom to swim at any tide. Picture a secluded sand spit, protected by its own coral reef, inaccessible other than by boat, thus maintaining its exclusivity to its guests. The island has an interesting ecosystem, with many small mammals present such as bushbabies, Suni antelope, bush pigs and many bird and butterfly species, while the reef is is teeming with exotic fish. This is the perfect end or beginning of any action-packed safari. 

Lazy Lagoon embraces local materials and traditional Swahili architecture and the lobby, restaurant and bedroom structures called 'bandas, which feature high steep roofs designed to catch the refreshing sea breezes, ensuring you stay comfortable in the warmth of East Africa. If lounging on the beach or in the Swahili daybeds isn't your preference, there's a host of activities to engage in - from snorkelling, kayaking, paddle boarding and a games room to historical excursions to Bagamoyo or a sun-soaked dhow voyages.

Lazy Lagoon offers 11 beach bandas, each with an en-suite bathroom, and the choice of twin or double beds. Additionally, there's an upper-level 'loft' with two twin beds, perfect for older kids. These roomy bandas come with both an upstairs balcony and a porch, providing unhindered sea views and direct access to the beach.

Lazy Lagoon is an excellent beach stop after an active safari on the Southern Circuit. See our Safaris for more information.

Lazy Lagoon Island Lodge

Swahili Coast (north of Dar)

Nestled on the outskirts of the Katisunga plain, Katavi Wildlife Camp seamlessly blends into the fringes of the surrounding woodland, offering one of the most spectacular vistas in the park. Animals, both predators and their prey, must parade past the camp on their daily commute to drink in the nearby Katuma River - making this the perfect observation point for some of the most dramatic wildlife encounters. 

Accommodation is made up of six spacious Meru-style mosquito-proof tents, which all offer direct and picturesque views of the plain, and each tent is constructed on an elevated wooden platform, providing shade from the noonday sun, and with a classic thatched roof. All tents are equipped with private en-suite facilities, and boast an expansive veranda complete with a comfortable hammock and seating area. There are 2 additional family tents plus a honeymoon tent.  

Game drives don't need to go far, as the wildlife is in such great abundance close to the camp and whether from the veranda of your tent, on a game drive or from the elevated viewing lounge, you'll have the privilege of witnessing predators alongside the plains game during daylight hours. And in the evenings, brace yourself for the spectacle of predators in pursuit as the game retreats to the safety of the trees. 

Meals are served in a comfortable and welcoming main lodge which also has a cosy bar and viewing deck.

Katavi Wildlife Lodge

Katavi

Nestled along one of the most breathtaking stretches of the Great Ruaha River, you can observe wildlife from your veranda throughout the day in complete comfort. Few other camps can claim such an idyllic setting. Ruaha is divided between two sites, one featuring a dining area by the river, and the other perched high on a nearby kopje, providing a wholly unique perspective. Crafted from local stone and thatch, the lodge is integrated with the natural kopjes and takes full advantage of its exceptional position along a bend in the river.

Ruaha River Lodge stands as the sole 'lodge' within Ruaha, boasting 24 stone chalets that extend along the riverbank - all with excellent panoramic views. Every chalet offers magnificent vistas from its spacious front veranda. Inside, the generous interiors encompass a cosy sitting area, a convenient writing desk, and a choice of twin or double beds. The rear of each chalet houses a sizable bathroom adorned with rustic timber, complete with a shower and double basins.

Enjoy game drives, nature walks with local Masai guides, relax on your veranda or comfortable common areas and, in dry season, the wildlife viewing from the lodge can be as good as on any game drive!

How our Tent Ratings work

These are based on our personal experience of the hotel, camp or lodge and should not be compared against ratings you find elsewhere. We intend to guide you and don’t be put off by a low tent rating as some of our favourites fall into the 2 and 3-tent categories.​

It is also important to bear in mind that standards vary from country to country and a 4-tent hotel in South Africa cannot be compared with a 4-tent hotel in another part of the world. 

To summarise our grading system, we have considered the following.
