30 YEARS ON THE GROUND TO HELP YOU KEEP IT MAGIC BUT ESCAPE THE CROWDS

No-one does off the beaten track safaris like we do. Whether you’re looking for a classic Tanzanian safari experience without the regular attention of other vehicles, or hoping to discover a new unspoilt paradise, we know where to find you the answers.

Great migration without the crowds: its hard to imagine the greatest wildlife show on earth can still be experienced alone but it can. From December to March the great herds gather in the south-east of the eco-system reaching the most southerly limits of the Serengeti national park. Our Bush Rover suites are isolated in a spectacular area where wildebeest often gather in huge numbers during this time, calving and under threat from numerous predators.

Hidden gems of the Tanzania safari world: the explosion of new life in the Selous / Nyerere national park during its green season 
The Serengeti wetlands where the star of the show is the dazzling birdlife which can include shoebill
Saadani, where mangroves and salt flats hide turtle’s nests and lion’s dens.

Unique cultural experiences: over 30 years of operation, A Tent with a View has nurtured strong relations within the communities where it operates. The support we offer these communities is of a magnitude few companies would contemplate and the resultant bonds we have made ensure we can offer you a wonderful immersion into Tanzanian life.

Expert guides: it is true to say that the more remote the destination, the more important is the guide to bring it to life. Our guides are vastly experienced within the Tanzania safari parks and amongst the peoples we seek to encounter to learn about their lives.
 
Spectacular accommodation: your comfort is of great importance to us and the extraordinary accommodation, service and culinary delights we offer on each safari holiday is something we are proud of, particularly off the beaten track.

Fine tuning your trip: our “Off the beaten track” trips are for those looking to break the mould. Inevitably, you may want to tinker with the safari tours we have put together to create your perfect experience. Our expert sales team will be thrilled to help you with this.

I absolutely loved my time with Tent with a view. 

The locations, the drives, the food, the service, the hospitality were all second to none and I could not have felt more welcomed. 

I truly felt like I was the most important person during my time there and I have made memories for life for sure. 

I cannot thank everyone enough for my time spent there. It was truly an amazing experience.
