Oliver’s Camp

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.

IIf you're planning a safari in East Africa for 2027, there's a new item on your checklist.

Rainy Season in Tanzania doesn't always mean cancelled plans and flooded roads; some showers blow through in minutes. However, some can mess with your driving or getting to a remote camp. The difference comes down to the month, the region, and how ready you've made yourself. Think of this as...
Kenya's Safari story usually gets told through the Maasai Mara, Amboseli, and the Big Five. However, beyond those famous names there are mountain forests, flamingo-covered lakes, dry northern reserves, conservation projects, and gorges. You can actually walk through on foot on these gorges. That's where an Off-Beat Kenya Safari comes...
A first Kenya Safari usually centres on the big names. For instance, lions, elephants, the Maasai Mara and the excitement of seeing everything for the first time. A second trip feels different. There's less pressure to complete a checklist. There's more room to notice the small stuff: how a herd...
