Tarangire Sopa Lodge

PLAN MY TRIP

Hidden among kopjes, ancient baobabs, and the grass plains of Tarangire National Park, Tarangire Sopa Lodge offers a unique and open experience where the wildlife freely roam through the camp.

Accommodations at the lodge consists of seventy-five open, circular guest suites with conical roofs that fan out to either side of the public areas. The rooms are built to resemble an African village in blocks of four with two rooms upstairs and two downstairs. These airy rooms feature two queen beds and a spacious tile-floored bathroom with a sink, shower, and toilet. Four of the rooms are interconnected and perfect for families. While four other rooms are designed to accommodate guests with physical challenges. Each room has a comfortable lounge with a mini-bar and a sheltered veranda for unwinding and taking in the views. Because the animals are at liberty to wander as they please, armed guards accompany guests to and from their rooms at night.

The lodge lies southwest of Arusha in Tarangire National Park. The sixth largest park in Tanzania, Tarangire is famous for its large herds of elephants, tree-climbing lions, giant pythons, and herds of oryx. It’s also well-known for its rock paintings which were done by early man tens of thousands of years ago. While mostly made of savanna grassland, the park also boasts rolling hills, rocky outcrops, extensive swamps, and Acacia woodlands as well as an unusually large number of huge Baobab trees. During the rainy season, it enjoys one of the highest concentrations of wildlife around as well as more than 550 species of birds.

Tarangire Sopa Lodge provides a perfect location for short safaris. The lodge offers bush breakfast, lunches, and dinners as well as sundowners. For an additional fee, guests can book day and night game drives around the national park. Another great addition to a stay here is a guided bush walk for an up-close view of the savanna and its flora and fauna. Tarangire is also one of the few national parks in East Africa where visitors can travel high up in a hot air balloon for a stunning aerial view.

Built on different levels, the main public area building offers an extremely cool break from the outside heat. The coffee shop features Tanzanian brew and fresh-baked pastries. Delicious meals can be eaten inside in the dining room decorated with hand-painted murals and multi-colored timber floors. The restaurant also has a terrace for eating outside and taking in the tree-covered, grassy plains. There is also a bar next to the swimming pool which is located next to a dry riverbed than fills up during the rainy season. Weather permitting, every other night dinner gets served on an enormous outdoor patio for a meal under clear African skies filled with stars.
