Lake Manyara Tree Lodge HIGH This is the only lodge in the park and it is located in beautiful forest about 45 kilometres from the main gate. It has been designed as a treehouse. The large rooms are on a wooden platform with a verandah and some rooms are built around existing trees. The lodge has a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere. Kirurumu MID Kirirumu is a permanent tented lodge set high on the edge of the Rift Valley with spectacular views out over Tanzania. The open- sided dining room and bar make the most of the view! The meals are all home cooked and most of the fresh ingredients come from their own organic garden. Arusha National Park Set between the towering peaks of Mt. Meru and snow- capped Kilimanjaro, the park comprises lush montane forest, the beautiful Momella Lakes and the tranquil craters of Ngurdoto and Mt. Meru. There are few parks with such variety. The Momella Lakes host a variety of water birds including fl amingos, ibises, spoonbills, ducks and a rich variety of waders, plus common waterbuck and Kirk's dik dik loiter beside their drinking pools. From lookout points on the forested rim of the Ngurdoto Crater, you might see warthogs and buffalo as they feed on the grasslands of the crater fl oor, whilst monkeys and more elusive creatures hide in the forests. Mount Meru Game Lodge HIGH The lodge is nestled amongst a grove of enormous old mango trees. It is approximately half an hour from Kilimanjaro airport making it an ideal lodge to stay in following a long fl ight. The game sanctuary here provides a safe haven to eland, ostrich, waterbuck, zebra, small carnivores and of course an enormous variety of birdlife. Tarangire National Park Tarangire National Park, dominated by the Tarangire River, is one of the best- kept secrets in Africa. It is a superb wildlife destination and particularly welcoming when added on after the busy ' northern circuit' of Manyara, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. The river attracts enormous herds of elephants and the landscape is a rich and varied mix of trees, plains, swamps and rocky outcrops. Elephants are virtually guaranteed here and predators ( including wild dog) hunt the herds of buffalo, Grant's and Thompson's gazelle, Burchell's zebra, giraffe and warthog. The area is excellent for birds of prey and provides superb habitats for hundreds of other species. Tarangire Treetops HIGH Tarangire Treetops is located just outside the park boundary. It is a great place for resident elephants. The ten treehouse style rooms are large and airy and some of them are built on stilts allowing the wildlife to pass freely underneath. The central area built around a giant Baobab overlooks a beautiful waterhole. Tarangire River Camp MID Tarangire River Camp is near the main entrance to Tarangire in a fantastic position overlooking a tributary of the Tarangire River where you can sit and take in your surroundings with views across to the park. It has ten roomy tents. Oliver's Camp HIGH OUR CHOICE Oliver's has eight large tents and is situated in Tarangire's remote south- eastern sector. This exclusive location is perfect for viewing crowded local waterholes, the spectacular Silale swamps, and the more popular baobab- country in the north.

Selous Game Reserve Selous Game Reserve is named after Frederick Courtney Selous, the famous 19th century hunter and explorer. It is the largest wildlife sanctuary on the African continent covering a staggering 54,600 square kilometres consisting of vast tracts of wilderness containing perhaps the greatest concentration of big game left on earth. Only in its northern extremity in the area of forest set around the mighty Rufi ji River has the Selous suffered the incursion of man, and it is still home to a bewildering array of birds and mammals. This is the Africa experienced by many of its early explorers - raw and untouched. Selous Safari Camp MID This camp is on the shores of Lake Tagalala close to the Rufi ji River. Each of the 12 safari tents is on a timber platform offering great views of the lake. It offers good facilities; both the bar and dining room are raised on wooden platforms above the ground. The camp has a good- sized swimming pool - very welcome as it can get pretty hot in the Selous! Rufi ji River Camp MID Set in a fantastic location high on a bank above the Rufi ji River, the views from the front of the camp are truly wonderful. This rustic camp has 20 tents all with thatched roofs, stone fl oors and the occasional piece of carved furniture - for those who want an authentic experience, going back to Tanzania's roots. Beho Beho HIGH This luxurious camp is in the highlands of the park. Each large open- sided stone cottage overlooks the vast wilderness of the Selous below. There is also a swimming pool deck and dining area specially designed to catch cooling breezes. If you want a really remote experience then fl y- camping is also possible from here for those staying a little longer. This camp appeals to serious safari afi cionados looking for something different.
