Tarangire Tortilis Camp

Just 120 km from Arusha, our Tarangire Tortilis Camp is the perfect place to discover the richness of northern Tanzania. Our future vision is a Tortilis Camp run entirely by women, and we have begun hiring them to become the first to achieve this goal.

This spacious camp, built among a row of four magnificent baobabs, looks out over a vast stretch of wetlands. Elephants look like boats sailing through the tall grass, watched from the warmth of our campfire area as you enjoy a drink and take in the sunset.

The Tarangire River is a lifeline that brings this National Park to life, attracting herds of more than 1,000 elephants, huge numbers of giraffes, and flows year-round, teeming with life so you can enjoy a game drive along its banks.

Walks with a National Parks ranger and your driver-guide are a fascinating experience where you can observe everything from the largest elephants to the tiniest insects. The ranger and guide will share a deep understanding of the unique details and sensations you experience on foot. It is amazing to think that such an exciting tented Tortilis Camp exists so close to Arusha — the perfect place to begin or end a Tortilis Camp itinerary.
