Firelight Safaris mobile camps are put together with the utmost care and only the comfort of our guests in mind. Your first sight of the camp provides the first thrill of your trip. Beware, there are many more!
Our fully customised landcruisers house fridge's, radios and fitted seats. Groups of between 4 and 14 people, whether family or friends, are taken on 10 to 14 day trips with camps moving 2 or 3 times during that period. The Northern circuit comprises Tarangire National park, a large but little known reserve of huge animal populations. Ngorongoro Crater, world renowned as a unique attraction, and Serengeti's endless plains of vast game herds, provide attractions as far as the eye can see.
For the more adventurous, we visit Katavi National park in the South of Tanzania. This area, rarely visited by tourists but magnificent in its solitude near Lake Tanganika, is home to the chimps of Gombe. In the middle of your trip, you will spend two nights at the world famous Ngorongoro crater lodge. Situated on the rim of the crater, the magnificent views will stay with you forever.
Our camp consists of individual luxury tents, each 16 x 16 feet with king-sized beds, single or bunk beds, and a sitting area for relaxing. Screened verandahs allow you to sit and enjoy a bottle of wine while listening to the sounds of the bush or watching herds of game pass by. Hot showers are prepared whenever required and staff are ready to make sure your needs are met.
The large dining tent and library includes a drinks cabinet and relaxation area with steamer chairs and Persian carpets throughout. Waiters are ready to take your orders of ice cold drinks. Sitting around the fire each evening, watching the sun's dying glow, takes the day to a perfect close.
Dinner is a 3 or 4-course affair, all freshly prepared by our experienced chefs. A choice of imported wines accompanies each course. Our team of capable staff include some who have been with us for 14 years.
Children are especially welcome on our trips as we eagerly cater for family groups. Staff are on hand to baby-sit in the evenings, if children want to sleep early.
In short, Camping with Firelight Safaris is the type of holiday you can only dream about. Come with us and let us take you to a land where the troubles of the world seem none existent - where simplicity itself lends itself to luxury unsurpassed.
