Set atop a dramatic escarpment with sweeping views over the Tarangire River and its wildlife-filled valley, Tarangire Safari Lodge has been welcoming guests since 1985 with the warmth and character of true Tanzanian hospitality. Family-owned and managed, the lodge offers a rare blend of heritage, comfort, and prime location inside one of the country’s most iconic national parks. From the moment you arrive, the scenery unfolds in wide panoramas of ancient baobabs, roaming elephants, and shimmering savannah, an atmosphere that instantly transports you into the rhythm of the wild. It is a sanctuary for both passionate safari-goers and travelers seeking tranquil moments between nature’s timeless landscapes.

The lodge’s classic safari tents, shaded by thatched roofs and cooled by large mesh windows, offer an authentic connection to the outdoors without sacrificing comfort. Each tent opens onto a private verandah where guests can settle into the afternoon with a book, watch hornbills flit through the branches, or observe herds gathering along the river below. With twin, double, and family options available, all tents feature ensuite bathrooms with solar-heated showers, 24-hour electricity, ample storage, and vibrant local textiles that add personality and charm. For those desiring more space, four circular bungalows, designed in the style of a traditional Maasai boma, provide a secluded setting, expansive interiors, and equally impressive views, making them ideal for families and small groups.

Dining is a highlight at Tarangire Safari Lodge, where an open-air restaurant frames the natural beauty of the park. Guests enjoy international home-style cuisine, fresh produce, and generous buffets that cater to every palate, with the option of a candlelit dinner beneath the stars on the terrace. Between safari adventures, the swimming pool offers a refreshing retreat, while the lounge and bar serve as relaxed gathering spaces. The Baobab Boutique showcases handmade crafts from Tanzanian artisans, supporting local women and craftspeople across the country. Powered fully by solar energy and equipped with multi-plug charging units and a central charging station, the lodge seamlessly blends sustainability with modern convenience. Warm, attentive staff complete the experience, ensuring every stay feels both personal and unforgettable.
