The nine tents are simple but cleverly designed – the smartest invention being the meshed-in porch where, weather permitting, beds can be placed to allow for lazy stargazing. The dark wood floors and wooden headboard give rooms a rich, classic safari feel, as do the leather-woven chairs. En-suite bathrooms at the rear have double basins (with deep brass bowls) and 20-litre bucket showers, so washing is rustic but perfectly adequate. Tea- and coffee-stations and bathrobes add to the creature comforts.
Olakira Migration Camp is owned by Asilia Africa who pioneers sustainable investments in vulnerable East African wilderness areas, fostering conservation economies for local communities and increasing biodiversity. Through collaboration with stakeholders and guest contributions, they achieve significant positive impacts. Their latest project, focusing on the Usangu Wetlands in Tanzania's Ruaha National Park, aims to promote sustainable tourism while preserving the region's unique ecosystem and biodiversity, ensuring long-term benefits to conservation and local communities. A contribution of $10 per guest, which is included in the nightly rate, goes towards the above goals.
