a tent with a view safari lodge  saadani game reserve

The reserve is located 130 km north of Dar es Salaam and just 38 km from Zanzibar, making it easily the closest park to both places.

At Saadani of the big five, lion, leopard, elephant and buffalo are present, the rare Roosevelt sable is indigenous, whilst plains game such as giraffe, zebra, wilderbeest, eland and hartebeest are more frequently seen in larger herds. The southern boundary is marked by the Wami River, which attracts fabulous bird life, large pods of hippo, massive crocodiles and the spectacular black and white Colobus monkey.

Saadani Safari Lodge has been completely refurbished in 2001, and boasts 9 luxury beachfront tent-bandas and one honeymoon suite. Saadani has en-suite facilities, solar lighting, a private verandah and sit just just a few paces from a pristine Indian Ocean beach. Bottled-nosed dolphins are common off the South coast of the reserve, whales pass through the Zanzibar channel in October and November, and there is a green turtle breeding beach at Madete in the North.

Retreat to the tree-house, complete with library, which overlooks a waterhole which regularly attracts waterbuck, bushbuck, bush pigs and warthogs, as well as less regular buffalo, giraffe, lions and leopards.

A new restaurant serving international cuisine (including the famous Saadani prawns) and an elevated bar overlooking the sea.

The unique experience of tracking giraffe through prime bush then emerging onto a pristine beach in a matter of a few paces is not easily forgotten.

The fascinating history of the village is evident in the remains of the old fort and war time cemeteries, whilst silhouetted prawn fisherman dragging their nets before the coming dawn make an extremely evocative image.
