Is the Little Chem Chem for Me?

Known as the ‘sunrise camp’, Little Chem Chem is situated on the edge of an acacia forest and is renowned for the abundance of elephants in the area.

Lying in a 16 000ha Wildlife Management Area adjacent to Tarangire National Park, the camp is surrounded by the characteristic landscape of the Tarangire River with its impressive baobab trees and overlooks the freshwater lake, Lake Burunge.

The Babati mountain range offers a magnificent backdrop to the south-west, with the distant hills of Tarangire visible to the north-east.

The atmosphere at Little Chem Chem is welcoming, elegant and oozing authenticity of a bygone era.

The luxury of sharing 16 000ha with only 20 guests each night sets the ideal stage where you can perfectly blend into the wilderness.

Lions roam the camp and call each other at night; stately elephants march down to Lake Burunge to get a sprinkling of fresh water; cheetahs hunt on the plains facing the lake; leopards, eland and lesser kudu can be seen in the more dense woods in the inner part of the concession.

Little Chem Chem’s intimate, elegant but authentic atmosphere, is the ultimate setting from which to explore Africa on foot.

Slow down and indulge in a sensual vintage safari.
