My wife and I jut returned from a three week trip to Tanzania. Among our other adventures, we spent a week on safari and visited Tarangerie National Park. We had booked one night at Oliver's Camp in Tarangerie and after a very exciting but long day of driving, we arrived in paradise. From the moment of arrival, Oliver's Camp, the... More

My husband & I stayed here for 2 nights . It was a long drive to this camp from Arusha but it was worth it. We were met by Ken, manager of the property and then a staff ushered us to our tent. We had tent # 6 and had the most beautiful views of the marsh. The tent is... More

Tarangire National Park, is one of the most special places in the world, and Olivers Camp, has to be one of the greatest places I have stayed at during my travels. The camp is about a two hour drive from the main gate of Tarangire, but don't let that deter you. In fact it really is a plus, because it... More

Tarangire NP was the first stop of a 9 day safari in Tanzania and after travelling for 48 hours to get there, Oliver's Camp was a fantastic way to begin and acclimatise. Excellent service, facilities and location. Hearing the wildlife at night was special and of course, having the outside hot showers with a view was terrific. Take advantage of... More

Oliver's Camp was our first stop on our ten-day safari trip in Tanzania. The camp is run by an Australian couple Ken and Michelle who have travelled extensively around Africa for years as wildlife photographers. Their knowledge of wildlife and Africa in general is amazing and I learned a lot by talking to them at meals and around the camp... More

It is when plan goes askew that tests the commitment to service excellence. And everyone at Oliver’s aced the test. For starter, the place is beautiful. The tents are spacious, with all the creature comfort. An outdoor shower crowns the stay. My partner fell ill on the second day when we had arranged fly camp. Plan had to be reworked.... More

My wife said it best: "This is exactly what I wanted." The tent was amazing; it was the perfect size, with a writing desk, a full sink, flushing toilet, queen size bed, and a storage chest. The tent also featured a heated outdoor shower as well as an outdoor seating area. It was as romantic as safari camps get. Additionally,... More

Oliver's Camp has the perfect blend of rustic "back to nature" and luxury. It is tented accommodation where you can sit on the porch and watch the wildlife wander by and where you can go to sleep at night to the sounds of whatever wild animal happens to be walking by. Yet the tents are extremely comfortable with every convenience... More

Olivers exceeded all my expectations - food, accomodations, and the staff were all great. I really enjoyed the outdoor shower. However, the true highlight was Tarangire, where the animals were out in full force. Our guide, Sadiq was top-notch and was like a member of the family. More
