Katavi Wildlife Camp, Katavi National Park, Tanzania

A Tented Camp in Tanzania

Camp Details

Set on the edge of the Katisunga plain, nestled in the fringe of woodland that skirt this seasonal lake, Katavi Wildlife Camp blends seamlessly into it’s environment, enjoying one of the best views in the park.

Katavi Wildlife Camp is set amongst the trees that fringe the Katisunga plains.  From your vantage point either on your tents veranda or from the upper viewing lounge you can join the predators watching the plains game during the day.  Then anticipate the excitement of the predators hunting their dinner as the game move back to the trees in the evenings.

Katavi consists of 6 large Meru-style tents, overlooking the plain; each built on a raised wooden platform, and sheltered from the midday sun by a traditionally thatched roof. Each tent is en-suite, and has it’s own large veranda with hammock and chairs. There are four double tents and two twin tents, and all have a safe.

WHY CHOOSE KATAVI WILDLIFE CAMP?

• The camp is located where the Katuma river drains the Katisunga plain and the  two-storey main banda is perfectly located to maximise viewing of the daily movements of game between grazing and drinking from the Katuma river.
• Katavi actually has a plain called ‘Paradise’ and we think it’s pretty aptly named.
• The game drives are led by a trained, experienced English speaking guide who will ensure that you get the most out of every safari you make.
• Game drives in Katavi offer a varied and rewarding experience. Drive along crocodile-infested rivers, through arid plam studded sand bars, and skirt seasonal lakes, seeing quantities of game reminiscent of a bygone era.
