Oliver's Camp Tarangire

Oliver’s Camp is arguably the best bush camp in East Africa, the perfect destination for travellers seeking a high quality bush experience. Famous for its walking safaris, the camp offers a fantastic range of activities that allows guests to truly immerse themselves in the wild nature and abundant wildlife of Tarangire National Park. Lion, leopard and cheetah stalk a wide range of mammals among the mystic baobab trees of the park, sharing the landscape with the famed Tarangire elephant and buffalo population and a spectacular concentration of bird species.

Spacious tents are beautifully appointed, maximizing the views over the animal-packed swamp ahead. The atmosphere in camp is intimate and relaxing, with solid wooden furniture and an inviting lounge, giving a permanent, well established feel – the perfect contrast to the ever-changing natural wilderness outside.

Oliver’s Camp supports a well-run initiative to manage the difficult balance between Tarangire’s wildlife and the local people who reside on its borders. In camp, the team will be more than happy to tell you more about this project.

Ideal for those who really want to experience nature and wildlife in its purest form, Oliver’s Camp offers a variety of ways to discover the incredible Tarangire National Park: from walking safaris to undisturbed open vehicle game drives. For the adventurous, the camp serves as a base for walking safaris combined with private lightweight or “fly” camping: venturing out into the wilderness with nothing more than a light tent and a small crew of staff. Arrive for campfire drinks, have an amazing dinner surrounded by the sounds of wildlife and sleep under the stars with nothing but mosquito mesh separating you and the savannah around you.

Wake up for a sunrise walk through pristine wilderness, experiencing the park as up-close and personal as possible, expertly guided by some of East Africa’s top guides. Back in main camp, enjoy game drives as they were meant to be: driving off-road to remote areas of the park, spending uninterrupted time with the diverse and abundant wildlife that this stunning park has to offer.

Night game drives are also possible and are operated on a daily basis leaving camp around 6:30 pm. Night drives are about spotting nocturnal animals and experiencing African Wilderness by night. Oliver`s Camp uses night vision goggles on their night drives which makes it an ultimate experience.
