Little Oliver’s | Tarangire National Park. Little Oliver is a newer camp and the younger brother of our favorite in Tarangire National Park. Little Oliver’s is about a km downstream of Oliver’s Camp, making it ideal for exploring this undisturbed, beautiful environment.

Little Oliver’s Tarangire: The Facts

Little Oliver’s is taken on an exclusive basis, making it ideal for families or big groups seeking a completely private safari experience. It contains only five canvas tents, making it quite small and personal. Each tent includes a private veranda, spacious comfortable beds, and an en-suite bathroom with indoor and outdoor showers and flush toilets.

Delicious meals are provided in the middle of the camp, beneath the canvas dining tent. There is also a separate mess tent, which is a terrific place to relax while observing the ever-changing ebb and flow of animals near the camp. Stories are spoken around the ‘bush television’, and Little Oliver’s will feel like a home away from home.

Little Oliver’s has a lot to offer safari enthusiasts, especially those looking for an off-the-beaten-track experience. It is home to vast herds of buffalo and elephants, who cluster on the floodplains. There is also a high concentration of predators and excellent bird life in the baobab forests. Combine this with Asilia’s superb guidance, and you can’t go wrong!

Tarangire is one of Tanzania’s least visited destinations in the north. While the Ngorongoro Crater attracts large people, Tarangire is off the beaten track and provides visitors with an unforgettable experience through intimate and frequently exclusive sightings. Although it is well-known for its elephant herds, lions, buffalo, and other large wildlife are commonly seen here.

If you have time, Tarangire is a must-see destination. Its position allows you to fly in or drive in, but we recommend spending at least two nights in the park. Because of the distance of the sites, the cost of getting to the park, and the variety of activities available, a minimum of two nights is required to make the trip worthwhile.

While walking safaris are heavily regulated in most national parks, and night drives are not permitted, Tarangire offers a diverse range of activities. It makes for an intriguing and outstanding safari in northern Tanzania.

Tarangire can be combined with the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater, and sticking to Asilia’s properties is a safe bet. Their Highlands property near the Ngorongoro Crater provides an excellent and unique location for seeing the Crater’s animals and adjacent Maasai villages. The Ngorongoro Crater requires only two nights. The activities here are limited, and the Crater itself is small, so a one-day game drive will suffice.

When it comes to Serengeti camps, Asilia’s migration camps, such as Ubuntu and Kimondo, are among the best in the National Park, and its permanent lodges, Dunia and Namiri, provide superb game viewing experiences throughout the year in the heart of the Serengeti. It really comes down to personal preference, but you can be confident that Asilia’s properties will give you with an outstanding vacation experience.

Ending your trip on the island of Zanizbar, whether it’s a family vacation or a group of friends traveling together, is the ideal way to cap off a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. After an eventful and captivating safari filled with early mornings and late nights, nothing beats recovering and relaxing on Zanzibar’s beaches while enjoying a refreshing beverage.

Stone Town is well worth a visit; whether you spend the day or two nights, you can immerse yourself in the city’s culture, from its lively markets to its fresh seafood. For those who don’t want to spend all day on the beach, come to Pemba, where the whale shark migration passes by. From the island, you can venture into deeper waters to catch a look of these magnificent creatures as they pass past. Snorkeling and scuba diving are must-do activities on Pemba.
