Kamperen in Tanzania

Dichterbij de natuur kom je niet! Wil je het echte Afrika in alle puurheid ontdekken? Is het jouw droom om middenin een National Park onder een schitterende sterrenhemel te genieten van een heerlijke maaltijd bij het kampvuur? Lijkt het je geweldig om ‘s nachts in je tentje midden tussen de wilde dieren in Tanzania te luisteren naar de geluiden van hyena’s, bavianen, galopperende zebra’s en impala’s? Dat is kamperen in Tanzania!

Ga met ons mee op kampeersafari: avontuurlijk kamperen in Tanzania! Wij nemen je mee naar natuurcampings middenin de Afrikaanse bush-bush, zetten het kampement op, zorgen voor heerlijke maaltijden en natuurlijk voor jouw veiligheid. Terwijl jij geniet en slaapt waken wij! Wij bieden je een magisch Afrikaans avontuur, 24/7 in de natuur, onder begeleiding van onze ervaren gidsen.

We kamperen op openbare campings in de Nationale Parken en hoeven daarom geen rekening te houden met de openingstijden. Ver voordat de eerste bezoekers het park binnen mogen, heb jij je tent al open en geniet je al volop van het ontwaken van de natuur. Natuurlijk onder het genot van een heerlijke kop koffie of thee. Kamperen in de natuur vraagt natuurlijk wel wat flexibiliteit en improvisatievermogen, maar een groter avontuur kan je niet krijgen!

Public Campsites middenin de Nationale Parken

We overnachten op openbare campings middenin de natuurparken van Tanzania. De campings hebben een eenvoudige douche en toilet en worden bewaakt door rangers.

Wij zorgen voor alle basis kampeerbenodigdheden, zoals een comfortabele sta-hoog canvas tent met muggengaas, stretchers, matrasses, kussens, kampeerstoelen, bekers en eetgerei.

Ontbijt, lunch en diner

Tijdens de safari reist een professionele kok mee. Soms is het ontbijt een moment van heerlijke rust en langzaam ontwaken in de echte Afrikaanse natuur. Genieten van een eitje in de immense stilte die alleen maar verbroken wordt door dierengeluiden. Maar er zijn ook dagen dat we heel vroeg op pad gaan met een ontbijtbox. Dan gaan we dieren spotten bij de rivier of naar een mooie zonsopgang op de uitgestrekte vlakte van de Serengeti. En dat geldt ook voor de lunch: soms serveren we een lekkere, goed verzorgde warme lunch, maar op veruit de meeste dagen gebruiken we onze lunch uit een lunchbox. Het diner is altijd een warme maaltijd met lokale ingrediënten en met zorg klaargemaakt door onze chef.

Dieetwensen

Omdat we de verse boodschappen onderweg doen, kan je tijdens de reis je wensen ten aanzien van de maaltijden aan ons doorgeven. Dus heb je speciale dieetwensen? Laat dat ons dan van te voren weten zodat we daar bij de inkoop rekening mee kunnen houden.

2 nachten op 1 camping

In onze voorbeeldreizen overnachten we vaak twee nachten op dezelfde plaats. We doen dit heel bewust om jou een optimale reisbeleving te bieden. Elke dag de tenten opzetten en afbreken maakt de dagen kort en het programma gehaast.

Het programma is meer relaxed
Op de dagen dat we geen tent hoeven op te zetten kunnen we namelijk tot het donker op gamedrive en dat geldt ook voor de ochtenden dat we geen tent hoeven af te breken

Als je hetzelfde wilt zien in minder tijd, raden wij je aan om te kiezen voor een Tented Lodge safari .

Christopher organized the perfect safari One of the most beautiful and impressive trips we have ever made!We spend twelve beautiful days with Christopher and Jaffed from “I dream of Afrika” on a wildlife and cultural safari in Tanzania. The safari was perfectly organized by Christopher, who diligently included all our preferences and wishes in a well-rounded and exciting tour, balancing the excitement of enjoying one of the planet’s wildest and spectacular nature with unique personal encounters with locals and time for relaxation. With his experience of many years as guide and ranger, Christopher knows all the special places, is great at spotting animals and willingly shares his vast knowledge about them. Christopher even organized walking safaris with rangers at two of the parks, which is a treat not many tourists do, offering fascinating insights not observable from the backseat of a car. We also enjoyed hunting with the Hadza bushmen tribe and the spontaneous visit to the stunning Oluvai gorge, which Christopher made possible.During the Safari, we decided to stay on public campsites and enjoyed it a lot. The tent was quadruple the size of our tent back home, with comfy mattresses and great views.Jaffed was a great personal cook and kept us well fed with amazing pancakes and his love for italian food, but also amazing local dishes. We also won't forget our visit to the local food market and the Ugali-cooking lessons.We loved learning bits of Swahili from Christopher and Jaffed and to learn from them about Tanzania's complex cultures and traditions.Overall, we can wholeheartedly recommend Dreams of Africa. The well-organized experience of nature, wildlife and culture in Tanzania surpassed all our expectations. We will never forget the amazing time with Jaffed and Christopher.

Christopher and his team are punctual, knowledgeable and welcoming Our time in Tanzania with Christopher, Japhet and Warren was amazing. The trip was tailored to our wishes. We did a 10-day trip and visited Serengeti North & Central, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire and Loiborsoit (an off the beaten track Maasai village). Communication beforehand and during the trip was great. The food in the bush was great, Japhet excelled every day. Tanzania is an expensive country for tourists, mostly due to the high costs of the National Parks. The camping experience was great and greatly reduced the price compared to lodging. It was quite adventurous, so read up on what to expect. But in our opinion, it was the purest way to enjoy the beautiful nature. Loiborsoit was very special: we stayed in a guesthouse with good beds and hot water. Outside of the guesthouse, you'll experience the actual way of living of the Maasai. Our local guide, Lengai, left us with lifelong impressions. If you want to spend some days with the Maasai of Loiborsoit to learn about their culture, experience their way of living and enjoy their kindness, please visit and support them!

Best choice for safari !!!! Perfect safari with Christopher. Excellent safari guide and from now - a friend. If you expect an unforgettable time, go with him without any hesitation !!!I had no previous experience with I DREAM OF AFRICA, just reviews on Tripadvisor and testimonials on their web page. All of them exceptionally positive. I preferred to go with local company instead of large, international operator, mostly to support local business, affected by COVID pandemia. So I did, and it was a perfect choice. From the very first moment, when Chris and his son Warren met us at the Arusha airport, to the last farewell, with tears in our eyes. Christopher, founder and boss of the I DREAM OF AFRICA (small, family run) looked after our group far, far beyond our expectations. His eye for wild animals was fantastic - he spotted the cheetah from 500 meters away ! He, his son Warren, co-guide Ombene, chief Japhet, with his aid, did really perfect job. Food was excellent, tents comfortable and in mint condition. You can relay on Christopher's knowledge of the national parks and places to find the animals. In fact, we saw all Big Five - hundreds of elephants and even witnessed the miracle of the elephant giving birth !!!I would be more than happy to provide any further information and to act as his ambassadeur. Chris and your partners - thank you for all you kindness, profesionalism and efforts. Zbigniew Wlodarczyk, Poland

Fantastic African Safari - They made OUR African dream come true! We took a 13 day Safari with I Dream of Africa who designed/delivered exactly what we wanted: an authentic experience, a mix of tent lodges and camping, cultural opportunities, exploring 5 national parks(Arusha, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti). We spent 2 days @ Kiboko lodge, 8 days nature camping in the parks, and 2 days @ Kati Kati Mara mobile tent lodge. Our knowledable guide, Ombeni, was an experienced driver and skilled animal spotter. We saw everything from elephants to dung beetles! We visited the Watoto Foundation/Child of the Star and Sky projects that rescue street boys, provide a multi-year program to house, educate and prepare them for jobs in carpentry, mechanics, and other vocations. We visited a Maasai tribe. Our cook Alex prepared fresh, delicious meals for us and made camp feel like home. During a night safari we saw bush babies, porcupines and hippos! We spent 6-9 hours on game drives each day. Ombeni was determined to have us witness part of the wildebeest migration, and we did! A spectacular event with lions, crocodiles and vultures all waiting to prey upon the thousands of wildebeests! We watched them gather for hours and then suddenly make their daring crossing of the Mara River right before our eyes! A "fly out" at the end of our journey enabled us to get a breathtaking view of the Tanzanian wilderness! I Dream of Africa exceeded all expectations, provided excellent PERSONALIZED service and made our African Safari dream come true!
