Ang’ata Tarangire Camp

A Classic Wilderness Hideout

Ang’ata Tarangire Camp is a charming tented retreat set deep within Tarangire National Park, where ancient baobabs rise like natural monuments and elephants roam in extraordinary numbers. Blending traditional canvas comfort with the serene rhythm of the bush, the camp offers an intimate, back-to-nature experience without sacrificing warmth or hospitality.

Days begin with soft morning light crossing the savannah and end around a glowing campfire beneath wide, star-filled skies. With its quiet atmosphere, sweeping views, and prime wildlife setting, Ang’ata Tarangire Camp delivers an authentic safari stay rooted in simplicity, character, and connection to the wild.

Location

The camp is set inside Tarangire National Park, close to the park’s central wildlife-rich zones and surrounded by landscapes defined by towering baobabs, rolling grasslands, and seasonal riverbeds. Its position offers quick access to the famous Tarangire River, an essential water source that draws remarkable concentrations of elephants, predators, and plains game throughout the year—especially during the dry season.

Seasonality

Tarangire is a park of striking seasonal contrasts, offering different experiences throughout the year. The dry season (June–October) brings the greatest wildlife concentrations as vast herds gather around the Tarangire River, making this the prime time for game viewing and photography.

The green season (November–May) transforms the landscape into a lush, vibrant world filled with migrating birds, newborn animals, and dramatic skies—ideal for travellers seeking a quieter, more atmospheric safari. Each season brings its own unique rhythm, ensuring that every stay at Ang’ata Tarangire Camp feels distinct and engaging.
