Each of these properties ensures comfort without compromising the wild spirit of Katavi. Expect gourmet bush cuisine, personalized game drives, eco-conscious operations, and often—no other tourists in sight.
Katavi is among the least visited parks in Tanzania. That means your lodge or tented camp often has the park to itself. Imagine sipping sundowners with no one else in sight—just you, the vast plains, and distant lion roars.
Most Katavi accommodations are solar-powered, plastic-free, and deeply integrated into the ecosystem. You’ll sleep on high-thread-count linens while elephants roam past your deck.
No fenced lodges. No background noise. Just pure wilderness. Some camps are so close to the action that hippos, buffalos, and even lions wander past the tents at night (with armed guards, of course).
Katavi’s peak season runs from June to October, when wildlife concentrates around shrinking water sources, offering phenomenal sightings. Due to limited camp capacity and high exclusivity, booking at least 6-12 months in advance is highly recommended—especially for travelers coming from the USA, UAE, UK, or Europe.
Ask about private game drives — most camps offer customized safaris with your own guide and vehicle.
Choose full board options — most camps include all meals and drinks, even bush breakfasts.
Request fly-in packages — many properties include scenic flights from Arusha or Dar es Salaam.
