Northern Tanzania has long been a favourite stomping ground for us Nomad folk and we know this region better than most. We were the first company to create a mobile tented camp that shadowed the migration around the Serengeti, and our Serengeti Safari Camp still continues this odyssey to this day. Our other camps are all tucked away in hidden corners of the parks, Kuro Tarangire nestles right in the beating heart of this beautiful park, Entamanu Ngorongoro redefines the Crater experience on our very own wild side of the Crater rim, and Lamai and Mkombe's House stand proud above the Northern Serengeti grasslands. This is a route that is well trodden in Tanzania, so it is important to us that you see it as we did all those years ago. Our team of intrepid and highly experienced Northern guides love nothing more than the discovery of hidden gems on the roads less travelled.
Our Northern Tanzania camps are in enviable locations that mean we can take you deeper into this epic wilderness. Tucked away, off the tourist trail, but in extraordinary wildlife areas a safari spent in our Northern camps is not to be missed.

The majority of safari camps and 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.

The hugely respected Nomad Tanzania…have chosen to build in an area of acacia trees and kigelia trees...six large canvas tents stand in a line that traces the run of the river and are spaced to ensure privacy...they are also equipped for comfort, with hot bucket showers and enormous beds

The Mahale Mountains in western Tanzania are famous for their chimps: there are some 800 of them here, around 75 of them habituated. Guests at this spectacular beach lodge on Lake Tanganyika are likely to spot other primate species, too, including red colobus, red-tailed monkeys and vervets.

Greystoke Mahale, on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, has been around for many years. In the far and not much-explored west of Tanzania, it’s the best place in the country (probably in all Africa, actually, outside of the Democratic Republic of the Congo) to observe chimpanzees in their natural habitats.

Get up close and personal with our genetic cousins at Greystoke Mahale. Perched treehouse-like on the sandy shores of Lake Tanganyika, it’s your base for tracking the fascinating troops of chimps that occupy the emerald Mahale Mountains.
