The Hemingway Camp Experience – Updated Video

New for 2023…journey to Tanzania with us in our latest video showcasing the Hemingway Tented Camps. At Africa Dream Safaris, we call our tented safari experience, ‘The Hemingway Experience’. These camps are situated in the secluded wilderness and surrounded by wildlife. When guests choose this lodging option, they’re opting for an epic, raw and wild view of Africa in its truest form, without giving up the comforts of home. If you’re looking for a little bit more of that immersive experience on your safari, the Hemingway tented camps are for you.

Hemingway properties give guests the experience of sleeping under canvas without roughing it. “These are not the tents you stayed at in boy scouts.” explains safari guest Jeff S. These substantive structures are luxurious with four poster beds, down pillows, wood side tables, spacious sitting areas, 24-hour electricity, hot running water and most even have wifi.

When you stay in these tented lodges, you won’t see a lot of people or vehicles. Instead, animals are the big show and that’s what you’re coming for. At night you’ll hear the lions roar in the distance and when you step out onto your porch the next day, you’ll see endless vistas spotted with wildlife as you drink your morning coffee. There’s really no other vacation experience that can compare.

Another advantage to adding this lodging option to your trip is what guests explain as the chance to get closer to their guides. With more one-on-one time to connect and have conversations with our staff, you can learn more about the local culture and language as well as the customs and traditions that are slowly disappearing.

If you’re looking for a little bit more of that immersive experience on your safari, the Hemingway tented camps are for you.

  1. Watching the Hemingway video made me smile and cry. It was such a beautiful experience to be in nature with our fabulous guide Roman and to interact with the warm and welcoming staff at each camp. I love what you have done to several camps. Sematu was also one of my favorites. Each one held special memories. I hope we can go again but only with ADS. They were absolutely the best !!
