About Bwana Tembo Safari Camp

The camp combines mid-range prices with finest quality services. Being run by Italians, the cooking is... well... Italian! The fresh home-made Italian cuisine is prepared to the highest standards and is mouth-wateringly good. The chefs are all trained by mamma Nicoletta who is sometimes present to supervise meal preparations and give the final touches to the great three course menu served. From time to time she will also do some cooking herself and the dishes will have that something special that only she can give. Bwana Tembo is entirely Eco-friendly, with solar power systems ensuring that all accommodations have light throughout the day and night.

"Bwana Tembo" derives its name from the Swahili "Sir Elephant" or "Master Elephant".

This name was chosen during construction when various groups of elephants visited the site, thus the camp is named after it's wandering four legged gentle giants.

Up to now visits from these magnificent animals which mainly come during the night hours and leave early in the morning. So do not be frightened if you get woken by sounds of branches breaking and odd grumbling noises.
