2. Fly Camping in National Parks

– Under the Stars, Off the Grid

For the ultimate wilderness experience, try fly camping—a minimalist, back-to-nature way to explore Tanzania’s national parks. Set up in remote and wild locations like Ruaha, Selous, Tarangire, and Katavi, these lightweight camps are perfect for those seeking solitude, adventure, and raw natural beauty. Often combined with walking safaris, fly camping puts you in close contact with the sights and sounds of the African bush. With just a canvas sheet between you and the stars, this is camping at its most authentic—and thrilling.
