The founders of Nomad, one of Tanzania's most renowned safari operators, chose this spectacular spot to build this camp because of the unique vantage point offered by the Kogakuria Kopjes - a high rocky outcrop affording supremely beautiful views over the Mara River Valley.
Lamai Serengeti Camp comprises a total of 8 tents of which two tents are family units. Each site has been carefully selected and any rocks, rather than being moved, have been individually integrated into the overall design. The rooms are painted in refreshingly light colours and equipped with wooden floors, comfortable beds, a large bathroom and a beautiful veranda with a view of the plain in front of the camp. In the morning, coffee is brought to your room and a new day begins...
Facilities of the main building include a natural stone pool, a lounge and a bar with comfortable seating area.
An alternative for families and friends is the private Mkombe's House. or Lamai Private Camp which is also offered on private basis only.
The closest airstrip is Kogatende.
Chada Katavi is a small camp with just six traditional East African safari tents. All are relatively spacious, romantic and equipped with large windows, which allow the light and African atmosphere to flood in. The bathroom and ‘bucket shower' are located in a smaller, adjoining tent. The main building comprises a lounge, bar, library and a nicely furnished tent where meals are served.
The warm and inviting blazing campfire casts its dancing shadows into the eternal darkness of night as tales of Africa are told.
Greystoke Mahale is built in an undeniably magnificent location. The tropical woodlands of Mahale Mountains National Park frame the great expanse of water and Kangwena Beach, both of which are literally on the doorstep. All facing the water, six comfortable straw huts with adjoining bathrooms and a viewing platform on the ‘upper' floor sit nestled on the edge of the surrounding forest.
Meals are served either outdoors on the beach or in the romantic dining tent - or, by way of variety, during a dhow trip on the lake.
Mahale is the place to observe chimpanzees in their natural environment and offers the unforgettable experience of meeting these captivating creatures so closely related to human. The camp is accessible by light aircraft on Mondays and Thursdays only. The flight from Arusha takes approx. 3.5 hours and is followed by a further 90-minute transfer by boat on the lake.
