Tarangire National Park is in northern Tanzania, in the Manyara region south of Lake Manyara. It is a good choice if you are looking for more animals and less tourists while travelling. Tarangire is a stunning protected area that boosts huge herds of elephants, open plains and some stunning gigantic Baobab trees. The name of the park originates from the Tarangire River that crosses the park. The Tarangire River Is the primary source of fresh water for wild animals in the Tarangire Ecosystem during the annual dry season. The Tarangire Ecosystem is defined by the long-distance migration of wildebeest and zebras. During the dry season thousands of animals concentrate in Tarangire National Park from the surrounding wet-season dispersal and calving areas.
Oliver’s Camp features 15 tents, thoughtfully arranged into two wings of five and ten. Among them are two family tents and a dedicated honeymoon suite. Each wing includes its own lounge and dining area, both offering sweeping views over the Tarangire River floodplains.
At the center of the camp, a cocktail bar and pool deck provide an inviting space to cool off and unwind during the afternoon. The tents themselves are spacious and well-appointed, with en suite bathrooms and both indoor and outdoor showers. From your private deck, you can relax with your favorite beverage while taking in the peaceful beauty and expansive landscapes of the bush.
What others say about Olivers camp
“An absolutely stunning camp buried in Tarangire National Park. The Staff are all super friendly, welcoming and can’t do enough for you. The room was incredible, so luxurious yet authentic too.” _ Fraja H
Sometimes, less truly is more, fewer people, more wildlife, and a far richer experience. That’s exactly what you’ll find at Swala Camp, set within Tanzania’s breathtaking yet relatively underexplored Tarangire National Park. While the park is not entirely undiscovered, its thriving elephant population is world-renowned, it still offers a remarkable sense of tranquility. The camp takes its name from the resident herd of impala, whose visits to the nearby waterhole draw in a variety of other wildlife. Of course, not all attention is friendly, as lions and leopards often linger nearby, adding a thrilling edge to the experience.
