Expeditions in most remote corners of Tanzania
Nomad has many years of experience in seeking out the quieter less crowded areas. We tend to stay away from crowds and create the type of safari we love.
Access breathtaking locations you never thought possible
Experience light-touch access to some of Tanzania’s most exceptional wilderness areas; places like Ugalla National Park, the little visited southern boundary of Ruaha National Park, or the stunning Gol Mountains on the eastern boundary of the Serengeti, and the lesser known southwestern section of the Serengeti. With no permanent bush camps or safari lodges, places like this are beyond the reach of most tourists, making them extra special for low impact walking or quiet game drive safaris. In an increasingly crowded planet, the privilege of accessing these magical places is not to be underestimated.

In the field with Nomad
Charlie is safari in it's truest form. When I am here, I feel like I am doing the work I was trained to do — reading the land, following the animals, and being in the right place at the right time.
I love Charlie because it reminds me why I became a guide. There is no showing off here, no rushing — just good guiding, good teamwork, and respect for the bush. For me, Charlie is honest safari, the way it was before everything became too easy. It’s not for everyone, and that’s okay, because if we all liked the same things in life, it would be boring.

Design your perfect wild days
Charlie is about exploring really cool remote locations and doing so with attention to the small things. The camp is lightweight allowing your location to move within the area over a few days. Time in camp is varied; walk in the cool of the day, head out on a game drive as the evening sun sets or just enjoy quiet moments

Open from June to end October, it offers a changing wildlife spectacle as the Kakuma River dries up, the plains turn gold, and the remaining pools become increasingly contested by the huge numbers of hippos, while crocs hunker down in riverbank caves.

You might say the 20-year-old Nomad Tanzania knows this corner of the world more intimately than most—which might explain how their next venture is the first to secure a previously untapped viewpoint. Six canvas bungalows, lined up along the Ngorongoro Crater Rim, feature unprecedented vistas of both the crater floor sunrises and Serengeti sunsets.

The majority of safari camps and safari lodges are not set up for young children, but this exclusive-use sister property to the eight-room Lamai Serengeti was designed especially for them: there are two fenced-off pools (including one for infants and toddlers), the staff cook to order and game drives are when it suits.
