Overview
About Nimali Tarangire
Nimali Tarangire sits on a private conservancy beside Tarangire National Park, with eight tented suites overlooking a riverbed. Each has a private deck and en-suite bathroom; two family suites add a second bedroom, connecting lounge and private plunge pool. An underground hide brings wildlife watching close to camp, with elephants a particular draw. Between outings, there is a communal swimming pool, bar and library. Children of all ages are welcome, and the combination of family accommodation and road access from Arusha makes this a useful base for a northern Tanzania safari.
“A good fit for families wanting space between safari outings, with two-bedroom suites and private plunge pools, plus an underground hide for watching wildlife close to camp.”
