"Dunia Camp review"

2 nights Arrived 9 Sep 2023
"Dunia camp was different from our previous camps in that it was a more authentic bush camp than the others. we enjoyed excellent facilities and food, and especially enjoyed a surprise breakfast in the bush. clever and fun.

our guide, Neema, was exceptional. road conditions were terrible from recent rains, but she managed beautifully. and the game we saw was fabulous, especially a pride of 5 male lions at a kill. can't say enough good things about Dunia." See all these reviews: 14n in Tanzania

"Beautiful Lady's camp"

3 nights Arrived 1 May 2023
"Staying at Dunia camp was one of the purposes that I came to Serengeti. Because Dunia is the only camp run by women in Africa and I wanted to support Asilia's trial.

Dunia met my expectations. All of staff were very friendly and kind, food was great, guide was very knowledgeable. Rooms have been renovated so they don't have real rustic camp feel now, but it's really comfortable to stay.

There were only few guests staying here, I had a private vehicle and private guides. Every day, I could spend my time as I like. Also Dunia offered individual table for every meal.

On one night, there were only 2 solo guests including me. We started dinner separately, but soon we started to talk each other and shared our experiences. That was a wonderful moment.

Unfortunately, Ihad to give up to find rhinos because of very bad road condition......so, next time for sure." See all these reviews: 7n in Tanzania

"Dunia Camp review"

3 nights Arrived 27 Feb 2023
"Similar standards all round as we had experienced at Namiri Plains.
The Asilia Group set good standards.
A different part of the Serengeti from Namiri Plains with a different background for some of the photographs to provide variety." See all these reviews: 11n in Tanzania

"A unique and first rate experience 0000"

2 nights Arrived 5 Sep 2022
"I selected Dunia Camp largely because I wanted to support the idea of a camp run by women. The safari experience was the same high quality as I have previously experienced from Asilia - the guiding, accommodation, food and overall service was first rate; staff were friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble.

The 'feel' of the camp was, however, different - possibly amplified by my being a solo female traveller. The welcome was exceptionally warm, and the women were charming and great fun. I was asked if I wanted company during the evening meal, in a way that was non-intrusive and friendly. There was a lot of laughter and gentle teasing both ways. I don't think I have ever slept in such a comfortable bed!

My guide, Laila correctly anticipated animal behaviour, which meant I got some great sightings.

A camp run only by women begs the question, is it better or worse that a camp run only by men or by men and women together. It is neither better nor worse, but it does have a different feel - in a very positive way." See all these reviews: 7n in Zanzibar; 5n in Tanzania; 1n in Kenya

"Dunia Camp review"

2 nights Arrived 26 Jul 2022
"The Dunia camp was probably the best camp we stayed in.

The atmosphere is what makes the difference: the ladies at the camp treat you like family.

They celebrated my husband's birthday with six months delay given the various postponements of our trip, and he keeps saying it was his best birthday ever!" See all these reviews: 5n in Tanzania; 3n in Zanzibar

"The Ladies Camp"

3 nights Arrived 9 Jun 2022
"We loved our stay at the Ladies Camp!

All of the women were incredibly welcoming and quick to help us with anything we needed. The food was delicious (including the packed breakfast and lunch) and we particularly enjoyed the desserts.

Our room was very comfortable and it was a treat to watch the sunrise on the patio (and hear the lions roaring through the night). :)" See all these reviews: 10n in Tanzania

"Dunia Camp review"

3 nights Arrived 7 May 2021
"A charming little camp that is entirely run by women (staff, guide, guard and management) which adds a special touch and feel. The camp is in every respect run very professionally with each team member contributing lots of care and love to the warm atmosphere of the camp.

We felt at home from the very first minute and were looked after so well during our entire stay. A great benefit of the camp is its location near the Moru Kopjes which also means away from the crowds of the busier park sections. During our stay in May, the difficult road conditions did unfortunately not allow driving to the Kopjes, but our guide and driver Neema did a terrific job showing us herds of zebras, buffalos and wildebeest, lions in trees, bat ear foxes, leopard and many other in other scenic areas of the park.

The camp itself is very well maintained and the spacious tents offer all luxury needed for a classic safari experience.

We also like to highlight that Dunia was further best in class with respect to the Company‘s Covid protocol. Thank you Ladies!" See all these reviews: 12n in Tanzania

"The Ladies Camp"

2 nights Arrived 30 Jan 2020
"The first word that comes to mind when recalling Dunia is “detail.”

This camp epitomizes the comforts that paying attention to detail can afford a guest. The little touches, such as the lovely fleece lined blankets for wrapping up in during a chilly evening meal, the availability of rain gear in the common area so that there is no need to retrieve your own. The staff is attentive, pleasant and always willing to assist.

Our guide, Zawadi, was knowledgeable, easy going and well informed. Angel and Mary (camp managers) consistently checked in to make sure that you had everything you needed for a pleasant stay.

One thing that I would like to point out is that I was expecting my guests to be met at the airport with lunch. We did not arrive until 2:30pm and then did not make it to camp until 4:00pm, not having eaten since 8:00am. Also on our game drive the next morning no food was prepared for a mid-morning snack. My previous experience with Asilia informed my expectations, so I’m not sure what happened or if things have changed." See all these reviews: 8n in Tanzania

"We loved this camp! Fantastic location, really lovely tents and excellent food, but it was Angel and the other staff that made it so special. We really felt like it was a home away from home.

e.g. they surprised us on our last day with a special bush breakfast" See all these reviews: 14n in Tanzania

"Lions ,elephants to go to sleep to"

3 nights Arrived 24 Jun 2019
"My wonderful stay at Dunia with Angela and her team was a highlight. All so kind and considerate and done with humour.

The setting was very African with the wildlife around and set in the bush.

Then there was Ahoub and Super who bought the savannah to life. Plus there going that extra mile to ensure I experienced as much as as possible in the time available.

Thank you guys for making the experience come alive." See all these reviews: 8n in Tanzania; 1n in Kenya
