GUIDE ON CHEM CHEM SAFARI LODGE IN TANZANIA

Navigation Tip - Go Directly To Prices, Reviews, Map, Photos, Video & Room Rate Guide For Chem Chem Safari Lodge

In the Great African Rift Valley, Chem Chem Safari Lodge lies athwart the seasonal migration route of mammals leaving the shallow soda Lake Manyara as it shrinks in the dry season, from July to October. Herds of ungulates and pursuing predators follow the Kwakuchinja Wildlife Corridor along the foot of the Western Escarpment into Tarangire National Park, where permanent rivers and extensive swamps attract a dense and varied population of thirsty animals.

Delightfully situated between the beautiful lake and the vast Tarangire park, Chem Chem Lodge is the perfect luxury base for your northern Tanzania tour. It offers exemplary luxury standards of coziness, service, and accommodation in an area of exceptional natural attractions providing opportunities to enjoy a variety of satisfying African tour adventures.



Conducted in a special Wildlife Management Area, with permission to undertake guided walks, a Chem Chem Lodge safari provides unique opportunities for up-close encounters of the wild kind. Game drives at Chem Chem Lodge are done at Tarangire National Park. Night game drives are not available nor are game drives in its private concession.

At the same time, it allows guests to luxuriate in an ultimate vintage contemporary experience, nestling in the heart of lush palm oasis, simultaneously at one with Mother Earth and cosseted in modern hospitality, convenience and sophisticated self-indulgence within a multicultural ambience as traditional, centuries old lifestyles blend with present day technology. Air and road transfers can whisk you from bustling Nairobi and Dar es Salaam to laid-back Tanzanian wilderness living, traversing many centuries in as many hours to begin your tour with AfricanMecca.

Accommodation At Chem Chem Safari Lodge

Travel in Africa is always a mixture of past and present, but at Chem Chem Safari Lodge vintage contemporary is the key to 8 magnificent, permanent, tented suites boulder-walled in a series of secluded groves, some 80 meters apart, joined by a raised boarded walkway with safety ratlines reminiscent of a rope bridge, guarded by carved wooden sentinels. Design combinations of natural materials with ethnic and vintage objects are presented in fresh and imaginative ways.



Each suite has an elegant bedroom, reading corner and dressing area, with telephone and room safe. A full bathroom contains oval bath and vanity units. There is also an outdoor shower that adjoins the bathroom. Complimentary toiletries, slippers, dressing gowns and hairdryer are provided. An extra bed can be provided for one child, or a family unit is available, having an extra room with twin beds, desk, and rocking chair.

The main building comprises dining room, outdoor decking and fire pit, bar, lounge, and library, with a roof terrace viewing area overlooking a waterhole where giraffe, wildebeest, zebras and varied antelopes come to drink. Your Tanzanian dream safari with AfricanMecca has already begun. Not far away, a swimming pool and Amani spa offer pampering personal care and cool refuge from the midday heat.



Safari At Chem Chem Safari Lodge

Wildlife-spotting day trips in customized 4 x4 jeeps are the first activities that come to mind for an adventure vacation in Africa, but at Chem Chem Lodge these are not merely rushed forays in search of the big game. Instead, you are encouraged to immerse yourself in your awareness of every moment of a relaxed tour of Tarangire with AfricanMecca.

Experience bush walks in the private concession and game drives in Tarangire National Park with skilled, knowledgeable guides to locate your objectives, be the mammal migrations, mating formalities, predator action, or simply identifying and photographing unusual birds and animals. Listen to your guides and their community’s link to their rich cultural heritage. Stand within the hollow trunk of a massive baobab tree and hear the cultural tales on how God punished the beautiful but vain tree by pulling it out of the earth and replanting it upside down.



Elephants in Tarangire National Park can be seen in split up herds of up to 600 at a time in the Silale Swamps with a mix of eland, zebra, hartebeest Cape buffalo and wildebeest, attended by prides of lions, packs of jackals, gangs of spotted and striped hyenas and solitary leopard. Baboons, vervets and bush babies represent the primates, whilst 550 avian species make for a birdwatcher’s paradise (read more on best times to visit Tarangire in Tanzania). You could fly over the park in a hot air balloon, or you could let your imagination float free, connect to the vibrant world around you, and absorb the real meaning of your holiday in Tanzania.

Dining At Chem Chem Safari Lodge

Food ingredients and beverages are of fine quality, locally produced as far as possible, and served freshly made to order. Bush breakfasts and picnics are available for early risers, top quality lunch hampers are provided on request, and special diets catered for. Fragrant Tanzanian tea or coffee heralds the day. The morning meal begins with cereals, cheese or fruit; and continues with freshly baked bread, eggs or a full English breakfast. Then you could take a guided safari walk in the bush. Lunch in-house consists of a set menu. Partake an afternoon siesta, advisable in high dry season temperatures.



Sundowner snacks and cocktails can be enjoyed on the deck or in the bar. On chilly evenings, there will be a flame in the fire pit to warm up convivial gatherings. Dining at Chem Chem Safari Lodge continues the overall theme of integration with fusion cuisine, featuring dishes combining characteristics of two or more distinct cultural methods or traditions in a full gourmet service restaurant. Private, romantic sunset dinners can also be served with lanterns, candles, waiter service, fine linen and an international wine list. In-room, viewing tower or even bush dinners can also be enjoyed by arrangement, providing special African safari memories of the sounds and aromas of the wild under a canopy of brilliant stars.
