Beho Beho was the first camp in Nyerere National Park to be sited in its cooler highlands. Here it enjoys 'cooling breezes' from which it derives its name. Designated a private camp, it has fiercely protected its individuality and privileged location. It is one of the most magical places to visit in safari Africa. Beho Beho is not really a camp in the true sense of the word. It has individual bandas built of stone, with palm-leaf thatched roofs. Therefore it is not the tented accommodation often associated with a camp. Nor is it a safari lodge either, as it has only eight bandas, four on one side of the main house and four on the other. Think of Beho Beho as a home, a very private home situated in the middle of the African bush. Owned by the Bailey family for over forty years, they now share their "home in the bush". A fortunate few are able to share their enjoyment of Beho Beho, one of their favourite places in the world. -
Breezes Beach Club and Spa, Zanzibar is an great choice for those seeking a romantic getaway and quality resort. The resort is set among beautiful gardens on a peaceful beach. Located on the East Coast of the island, it is about an hour away from Stone Town. The lodge is known for its attention to detail. It features intimate and private dining, beautiful Zanzibar decor with stunning carvings, glistening brass and rich fabrics. Breezes manages to create an elegant atmosphere. As is the case for nearly all of Zanzibar apart from some areas up North - Nungwi and kendwa, at low tide the water becomes shallow and it is possible to walk quite far out into the ocean. Low tide ideal for going on an excursion to see parts of the island, join a spice tour, visit Stone Town or head out on a boat trip. You can also just relax by the pool at the hotel. We use Breezes often for guests, especially families, who may not want to spend too much on luxury accommodation. Service is great and the location is good. Most guests opt for the Deluxe rooms staying on Half Board Basis, but you can also select the Standard rooms set further back on the property or a Suite if you want something of a slightly higher standard. -

Chada Katavi belongs to the beasts
Chada Katavi belongs to the beasts of Africa, it always has, as if they were all created here in this remote place. This is the promise of Katavi - total absorption in the natural world and virtually no one else around. Katavi really is one of the final frontiers. This is a true wilderness which is all about enjoying being out on safari without the crowds, in fact often without any company at all. Chada Katavi is only open for six months of the year (June - November) and we think everyone should be clambering over themselves to get here - it really is worth it. -
