to get started.

We weren't expecting much of this place given how low the prices were compared to other lodges, but we loved every minute of our stay here. We even spent 2 afternoons just lazing around at the campsite which is not our style at all, we usually go out and explore, but it was just such a nice place! The rooms are big, beds are comfortable, fully functional bathrooms, great food and very professional staff. Other reviews say it's hard to find, yes it's not very straight-forward but we found it on our first try, just drive slowly and look out for the signs on the side of the road. The only reason I can think of for the price being so low is that the lodge isn't in the middle of a national park, but Mto Wa Mbu is a really nice village that you don't want to miss (the lodge offers village tours for $20, we did it and it was really cool). Tarangire is a 1-hour drive, Manyara is 20 minutes, Serengeti may be a bit far but the others are all easily within reach.

The staff was very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The tent was huge, very clean and didn‘t lack anything. We booked a game drive to Serengeti with overnight stay and the driver/guide Mollel did everything to make this trip a great one!

Fabian

We had a great stay at Africa Safari Glamping. The tents are spacious and clean. We liked dinnertime in the evening in one of the communal tents. Most of the time we were away so we haven't seen much of the property during the daytime.

We had some trouble with the invoice which was Incorrect because they charged one night plus. It took some days and many phone calls to settle the matter. That was very inconvenient. Also note that you can’t check in at the accommodation after 6pm, it doesn’t match the infos given here on booking.
We were lucky to have the best tour guide for our 7days safari to Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Hartson! Thank you so much!

It’s hard to get there and we got lost (use apple maps, not google maps). The food was a bit expensive and not so great,and it’s hard to go somewhere else to eat.
Very ample and beautiful. The tents are very well preserved and spacious. The pool and the garden are rather cute. The people is really nice.

It's a bit pricey for the luxury tent value wise. It would be nice if they had a ceiling or even just a plug in fan for the warm nights. Good was ok, but pricey.
Excellent staff. Beautiful grounds. Security is very good. Big tents with hot water (just takes a couple minutes). Beds are comfortable.

“Good base camp for safaris”
- • Leisure trip

- • Safari Tent
- • Stayed 3 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Our safari tent was not well equipped neither cosy. There would be enough space for chairs and table in a tent. No glasses or hangers were provided. Also the privacy is compromised. No lock or safety box in a tent and no door in the bathroom. The whole concept is slightly overpriced as well as the meals and drinks which are three times more expensive than in the village. However, this is probably the case at all the lodges in this region.
Easy to reach from Mto Wa Mbu village by tuktuk (3000-5000 TSH) or by walking (45 min.), well sign-posted. Safaris available from the camp. Our safari tent was big as well as the bed. Personel were friendly and spoke good English. The location is very good for safaris. Monkeys did not disturb us at all.
