Property information

Stay in luxurious tents overlooking the Usa river. The 5-tent camp is set on a stunning riverfront full of large fig trees frequently visited by monkeys. The area is home to over 400 species of birds. Mount Meru looms large in the background on cloudless days. The camp can be booked as a whole or each tent can be booked separately. You will find here a perfect place to wind down in the midst of nature.

Neighbourhood information

The camp is located on Dolly, a large residential estate located a 10-minute drive from the village of Usa River, between Arusha Airport and Kilimanjaro Airport). The estate houses abundant small game, such a gazelle, antelope, zebra, wildebeest, monitor lizards and monkeys. Next door, our organic farm produces sustainable vegetables, fruit and herbs and houses animals such as friendly dogs, long horn cows, horses, chickens and turkeys. There is a polo club close by, horseback riding can be arranged and Kiligolf (18 hole-course) is located in the vicinity. Dolly Estate is a great starting point for safaris, hikes, farmwalks, cultural daytrips and mountain climbing.
