LUXURY TOURS IN TANZANIA

Are You Planning A Boutique Safari To Tanzania? Scroll Down For Details..

The supreme safari luxuries of Tanzanian wilderness experiences are never-to-be-forgotten self-indulgence on a spectacular scale. Each rustically boutique or chic accommodation offers something differently richer and very special as well as a superlative range of personal service with utmost comfort, sumptuous cuisine, ultimate privacy and distinctive convenience, all authentically complemented with unimaginably splendid scenery and wildlife, with expert guides, customized transport and sustainable interactions with wildlife and ethnic communities. The above is the definition of AfricanMecca’s grandeur safari experience in Tanzania, varying from magnificent camps and lodges from one national park to the other.



In the northern Tanzanian plains of Kilimanjaro west, Shu'mata guarantees absolute communion with nature in a private idyllic venue for a wildlife and unblemished cultural tour. Set in Maasai homeland where wildlife roams at will, it combines Maasai art and Swahili coastal draperies with colonial opulence, offset by bathroom austerity in enamel bowls and ewers, a reminder of the need to conserve water in this eco-friendly example of experiential tourism enabling local development and sustainable conservation, particularly Lion Guardian poacher patrols over the Amboseli ecosystem bordering Kenya. Overall standards of service, cuisine and safari guiding are exemplary, and the views from the lounge, bar and private patios are ultra-delightful.

Lake Manyara Tree Lodge, at the end of a long, coarse road, offers tree houses in a mahogany grove, in serenely beautiful secluded wilderness where you can indulge in exquisite lake viewing surrounded by stilt-legged pink flamingos amidst mighty elephants foraging in the forest and tree climbing lions eyeing for prey, and taking a walking or mountain bike tour of the Manyara highlands, day and night game drives, visiting the many different tribal villages in reach, relaxing in the forest pool or in your own bath with a view, or enjoying an in-house massage.



Tarangire National Park, south of Manyara, occupies the fairy tale retreat of Tarangire Treetops, offering incredibly spacious decked suites supported in widely spaced giant baobab trees and accessed by spiral stairs with trapdoors. Modern bathrooms with double showers are supplied with perfumed toiletries. Set on a hillside overlooking a well-frequented woodland waterhole wilderness owned by tall, proud red-robed Maasai people, you are surrounded by elephants, ungulates and speckled avian life, with leopards lounging languidly along thick branches. The Maasai themselves will introduce you to their world and their unique culture.

Sandwiched between Manyara and Serengeti is Ngorongoro Crater Lodge, a surreal fantasy quarters perched on the rim of the eponymous crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site of stunning size and beauty. Commanding magnificent views from every suite and central location, it towers over forests, grass plains, swamps and central Magadi salt lake spread out beneath your feet, populated by 30,000 wild animals including some of the last surviving rhinoceros. This crater lodge in Ngorongoro is a surreal setting for an out-of-this-world Tanzanian boutique vacation, combining Rococo decor worthy of Versailles with paneled walls, brocade sofas, glass chandeliers, brocade chairs and sofas and high class personal butler service with haute cuisine.



Bordering Masai Mara National Reserve and northernmost plains of Serengeti National Park is Singita Mara River Tented Camp that showcases the finest of African art in a Cécile & Boyd’s decor where you can relax in bohemian comfort. It offers fantastic Serengeti photo tour opportunities with AfricanMecca by reason of its private and isolated setting in the Lamai Triangle with unbeatable access to breathtaking spectacles of the Great Migration when teeming hordes of wildebeest pour down steep river banks to ford the crocodile-infested Mara River. Survivors emerging from the hazardous waters are attacked by more waiting terrestrial predators, lions, leopards, hyenas and cheetahs.

In southern Tanzania, Azura Selous offers lavish living with incredible long-gone colonial affluence in Selous Game Reserve, a stand-out untamed sanctuary for hundreds of thousands of untainted wild mammals, where authentic Tanzanian travel means a return to Africa as she was, with all the trappings of a pampered Edwardian and faultless personal service. A paradise for AfricanMecca honeymooners, bird-lovers and connoisseurs of the wilderness experience, it is also perfect for intimate and adventurous family holidays. Gorgeous oxbow lakes and tributaries strung along the Rufiji and Great Ruaha Rivers are frequented by hippos, varied antelopes, buffalo and zebra, whilst more than 440 bird species breed here or migrate.



Jongomero Camp in Ruaha National Park is found in utterly wild and isolated bush 44 miles (70 kilometers) from its nearest neighbors. On this expansive tour in south Tanzania, in an area sizing up to the stateside New Jersey and Wales realm in the United Kingdom, with few visitors and fewer trails, you will find the unfenced camp is patrolled by elephants digging with feet and trunks for water in sandy river beds, whilst hundreds of ungulates wait for a refreshing sip. Hippos take a dip in the camp pool while tuskers drink from it while fur-hooded vervet monkeys poke inquisitive noses into anything unlocked. Deep-chested sable antelopes raise their magnificent backward arching horns in the nearby woodland where rare roan antelope and stocky kudu pose like samurai warriors.

Saadani Safari Lodge, two kilometers from the east coast in the only seaboard national park in Tanzania, offers a rich diversity of activities for a luxurious safari holiday in Africa. The Big Four, leopard, lion, elephant, and buffalo roam not far from the lodge but elusive. You can take a morning walk along a silver beach beside the Indian Ocean or go snorkeling on glorious coral reefs. Visit Saadani fishing village, once a hub of the historic slave and ivory trade, or take a boat safari to the palm-fringed Wami River to addle crocodile and hippopotamus with colorful weaver birds, kingfishers, fish eagles, storks and egrets looking on.



In western Tanzania, Palahala Luxury Camp in Katavi is the most authentic wilderness location for an intimate exploratory tour, set beside the Kipapa River, throbbing with vicious life in the dry season when rivers shrink to mud wallows and crocodiles and hippopotamus battle bloodily for a cool place in the ooze. Amazingly, for such an isolated camp in a forgotten world, with no modern communications and only renewable energy sources, and where water is brought in by bowser, you can revel in sybaritic comfort, dining by candle-light with Mayfair Club-style butler service, vintage champagne and Habanos cigars. All these and other boutique camps and lodges in Tanzania meet AfricanMecca Tier 1 Safari rank specifications for outstanding standards of extreme luxury, superlative comfort and service, scrumptious cuisine, and personalized safari programs in outstanding nature trip locations.
