Accommodations
Mid-range
Midrange options are a favorite for most of our travelers. These lodges and tented camps offer a comfortable stay with all the essentials—private bathrooms, hot showers, good meals, and attentive service. You’ll find them in beautiful locations, often inside or near the national parks, with cozy lounges, scenic views, and even swimming pools in some places. They strike a perfect balance between cost and comfort, ideal for couples, families, and small groups looking for a relaxed but authentic experience.
Luxury
Luxury safaris are all about elegance, exclusivity, and exceptional service. These lodges and tented camps provide everything you’d expect from a 5-star resort—gourmet meals, spa treatments, private decks, plunge pools, and breathtaking views over the savannah. Many are located in private conservancies, meaning fewer vehicles and more intimate wildlife encounters. If you’re celebrating a honeymoon, anniversary, or simply want the best of the best, this is for you.
Budget
Budget accommodations are for travelers who want to experience the magic of safari without breaking the bank. These are clean, safe, and simple options like basic lodges or permanent tented camps with shared or private bathrooms. Meals are home-style, and the atmosphere is often social and laid-back. It’s a great choice for backpackers, students, or anyone who values adventure over amenities.
