Our Thomson Classic Camps are modeled on the traditional mobile tented safari camps enjoyed by Hemmingway and Karen Blixen. You'll be closer to nature, but not too close for comfort. These camps are used in Tarangire National Park, at Ngorongoro Crater and sometimes in the Serengeti as a more economical and private option for our custom travelers. We don't believe silver tea sets, Persian carpets, crystal glassware and starched uniforms are particularly appropriate in the wild, but you will be safe and comfortable, and you will receive excellent service and attention from our friendly camp staff. Each walk-in tent has a straw mat floor, two camp beds complete with mattresses, pillows, sheets, blankets, and a bedside table. The tents have fine mesh windows and doors for ventilation and are completely mosquito and bug proof. At the front of each tent is a private veranda with a table, wash basins and safari chairs. A sanitary portable toilet is in its own small tent attached at the back of each sleeping tent, along with a shower tent providing hot safari-style showers at any time of day. Delicious, healthy food is expertly prepared in an outdoor "kitchen" by our camp chefs and served in the spacious dining tent. Share your stories sitting by the campfire, and marvel at the billions of stars in the endless African sky. Camp lighting is by kerosene lamps, as there is no electricity. This is the most eco-friendly way to travel in Africa, and our travelers say it is one of the most memorable safari experiences. Safaris using this accommodation:
