LOCATION

Swala Camp is located within Tarangire National Park borders. The park is an easy 115 km's from Arusha on excellent roads and the camp itself is another 67 km's into the park. This section of the park is exceptionally private with no other camps around.

ATTRACTIONS

The park's name is derived from the Tarangire River, the park's only source of permanent water. In the dry season this river is the lifeline, attracting much of the game. Huge herds of elephant, greater kudu, and fringe-ear Oryx are what the park is synonymous with. In addition, leopard and tree-climbing pythons often inhabit the trees.

FACILITIES

Accommodation is offered in nine double tents, each attended by a personal butler and all placed to offer maximum privacy and tranquillity. Each tent has en-suite facilities and hot running water. Private balconies with comfortable furnishings extend in front of each unit. The dining area, lounge and library are housed in the main public area, which affords spectacular views from its wooden deck.
