Safari Accommodations:
At Shrike Safaris, we offer a curated selection of accommodations to enhance your African adventure. The properties are meticulously chosen based on their amenities, service quality, authenticity, and proximity to key attractions. Having personally experienced many of the country's leading accommodations, our team—comprising experts like Walter, the CEO of Shrike Safaris—ensures that each option meets our high standards.
To be included in the Shrike Portfolio, properties must offer a unique East African experience that travelers cannot find elsewhere. Location is paramount; only those in Tanzania's most distinctive areas are selected. However, a prime location is just the beginning. We seek accommodations that maximize their settings through a broad range of services led by highly qualified and knowledgeable staff. Personalized service and attention to detail are vital to ensuring an exclusive African experience. Additionally, we prioritize style and comfort, favoring lodges, camps, and hotels that are luxurious without being opulent.
We categorize safari accommodations into three distinct classes:
Mid-range Lodges & Camps
Enjoy quality accommodations that balance comfort and affordability, offering essential amenities and services for a satisfying safari experience. These lodges and tented camps provide comfortable beds, and en-suite bathrooms with running water, and occasionally, swimming pools.
Basic Camping
Enjoy being immersed in the beauty of mother nature as you sleep under the stars and cook over a campfire in the wilderness of Tanzania. This type of accommodation is the most affordable and also a bit more rustic than the other options. We provide comfortable camping equipment, including mattresses, camping furniture, pillows, tents, sleeping bags, and lamps. Tents are always set up and broken down by the camp crew and all meals are cooked by the chef accompanying you.
