Details of Oliver’s Camp

In April and May, when the annual rains come to an end, the lush grasslands and profusion of wildflowers provide the best opportunity for walking safaris, while the approaching dry season from August through to October brings vast herds of wildlife to the watery wetlands on the fringes of Oliver’s Camp. At this time, Tarangire boasts the highest concentration of mammals in any of Tanzania’s renowned national parks, yet as the November rains return the herds depart and the return of migratory birds provides ample entertainment for twitchers.

TENTS:

At Oliver’s the 10 en-suite safari tents offer bush luxury without superfluous frills; the spacious outdoor shower perhaps the one extravagance you’ll happily allow.

Short Overview

Oliver's Camp is situated in the remote south-eastern reaches of the Tarangire National Park. This relatively undeveloped park celebrated by safari travellers looking to head a little off the beaten track offers a welcome respite from the crowds of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater to the north. The latest addition is also Little Olivers camp designed for families.

There’s a reason so many people come home from Tanzania saying, “I wish I’d added a few more days on the coast.” These Tanzania Bush and Beach Safaris aren’t just a pretty phrase. It’s an efficient way to travel. On one side, you have the wild energy of a Tanzania...
When people plan their first Tanzania Safaris, they always mention the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. And sure, they are amazing.

Formed by an ancient volcano more than two million years ago, Ngorongoro Crater is one of Tanzania’s most remarkable landscapes. A collapsed caldera that measures about 19 kilometres across and 600 meters deep, it shelters one of the densest concentrations of wildlife anywhere in Africa. Within its circular walls live...
On a Tanzania safari, you'll never forget the Serengeti's quiet before the drama. A hopeful, humming quiet. The air smells like rain and wild grass. Like gold and rust, the horizon is endless.

There’s a moment, just before sunrise, when Tanzania feels like a secret the world hasn’t fully discovered yet. The air is cool, soft with the scent of acacia, and the plains of the Serengeti begin to glow under the first blush of light. Somewhere out there, a lion calls —...
