Sanctuary Swala

Tarangire National Park


Arguably the most refined safari experience inside Tarangire, this premier-class camp nestles in a grove of acacia trees and overlooks a busy waterhole in the southwestern part of the park near Gurusi Swamp. Each of the 12 lovely tents has a big deck and its own butler. The camp’s in a great wildlife-watching location with lots of lions.
