ACCOMMODATION DETAILS

Located in the western sector of Ruaha, close to Mdonta Falls, the camp is set up in a simple and aesthetic style. Like it’s “sister” camp, Selous Lake Manze. Mdonya Old River is excellent value for money.

The camp consists of 11 large “meru” style tents, with relaxing, open verandahs at the front and ensuite bathrooms at the back.

Dining and lounge tents are under Acacias and Sycamore Figs overlooking the dry riverbed.ย  This dry riverbed is used by game as a corridor, so guests can enjoy game viewingย whilst having breakfast, lunch orย simply relaxing.

There are comfortable sitting areas,ย a small library and interesting wildlife artifacts, plus you will find hides at both ends of the camp where you can sit and watch the game pass by all day.

Very friendly and attentive staff who encourage a relaxed and fun atmosphere. Good quality guiding.

This really is a camp that is “at one” with its surroundings and environment.

I am just back from Tanzania and wanted to thank you very much for a fantastic itinerary. I loved all the accommodation choices made, all the connecting flights worked well and the guide was superb. I had a great time and let me know if you want to get some more feedback on any of the properties suggested by you and also Pongwe Beach which excellent.

Armin

Many thanks for a truly great holiday! Nyerere National Park was a great success as we saw the wild dogs on 2 occasions and some great lion kills. In fact we saw a pride of 10 lion including cubs within 10 mins of landing in the Nyerere National Park! Zanzibar was wonderful! The sunshine hotel was beautiful and the staff were lovely.

Andrew Morton

The welcome and kindness and generosity we have received, in all of our camps and stops has been tremendous. Although we have both travelled a lot over our years together, we both agree this holiday has been outstanding, and one of the best experiences of our lives.

Tanzania Northern Parks & Zanzibar, August 2019

Thank you for organising a fabulous holiday for us – memories of which will last a lifetime. We have arrived back completely awed by Tanzania and Zanzibar. We saw the all the wildlife we could possibly wish to see. Our driver was charming and looked after us brilliantly. Lodges were excellent and food fantastic.
