Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.
If you have read other reviews from properties in Tanzania indicating how friendly and genuine were the staff, that’s because it’s usually true. But this place was over the top. We were sorry to leave. It is located within Tarangire Park, which jacks up the price since you are paying entry fees for every day you are there, but we found it well worthwhile for the week we spent there. Very few people do that, and we spent some days NOT doing the usual safari, observing quietly the life that came by, as opposed to chasing after it in a car.
The lodge is a luxurious "camp" site in a Wildlife Management Area that would probably be fine to visit if booked indirectly through a tour operator. Unfortunately it seems to have affiliated with a scammy of agency in Arusha which misinforms customers about its actual location.
Second time visited Baobab tented camp. I should return at least one more time here! )
Lovely staff, splendid location, tasty meal! You can start a safari just leaving your tent )
All the comfort in the middle of the savannah. Very beautiful setting, pretty tents with a very safari atmosphere. The food (dinner, breakfast and lunchbox) was really delicious. Being in the park early in the morning allowed us to see a family of about 15 lions on our way out, it was amazing.
