"Oliver's Camp review"
Crimes happen everywhere, but are thankfully very rare on our African trips. After 18 years and thousands of travellers, we have only had 3-4 such incidents. We are completely satisfied that this was purely the work of a criminal, and dont believe that it reflects badly on the camp itself.
Although of little consolation to these travellers the camp responded very speedily. The same day, police and two car-loads of national park rangers were scrambled to the camp to investigate, and went to great lengths to try to catch the culprit including putting up a very substantial reward was put up for information.

The lunches and sundowners and evening meals were great again with great company. A picnic one day was not good but otherwise everyhting was super on the food front. I had a wonderful time!" See all these reviews: 13n in Tanzania

"Great to come back to after fly camping"
Overall, four days and nights in the Tarangire was too long. Three days and three nights with one night of fly camping is sufficient." See all these reviews: 11n in Tanzania
"Oliver's Camp review"
Food was tasty and plentiful, wonderful campfire and drinks every night before dinner, small number of guests and relaxing atmosphere was really nice. Short drive to excellent game viewing.
Common dining table was a nice way to chat with other guests and share the day's experiences. Staff seemed genuinely friendly and helpful and were very pleasant to deal with." See all these reviews: 13n in Tanzania
"Great experience!"
There is a lot to be said about the infrastructure of a permanent camp versus a mobile camp. The tent was more than we expected and the view was great.
The staff attended to your every need and the food was excellent." See all these reviews: 11n in Tanzania
