At The Highlands you get a real taste of Tanzania's unspoiled wonders. Set high on the slopes of the Olmoti Volcano, the camp looks out over the Gol Mountains and the Empakaai Crater, all the way to the distant Serengeti. This unique location offers tranquil solitude, the only way to truly experience the country's exquisite wilderness.
The eight eco-conscious, dome-shaped tents set themselves apart from the more traditional safari camp. The tents each have their own fireplace to keep you warm when the temperature drops in the evening, and even gas heating facilities so you can stay toasty at night. The floor-to-ceiling windows ensure you get the best of the spilling views all around you without having to remain quite or hidden, and from here you'll witness Africa's blazing sunrises, its sky-painting sunsets and some of the more curious of its creatures.
