What to Expect from a Mobile Tented Camp in Tanzania

Staying at a mobile tented camp is a different kind of Tanzania safari, and the concept is easy to grasp. The camp doesn't stay in one place. Several times a year the whole thing is physically moved so it sits close to wherever the migration happens to be. That said, "mobile" doesn't mean "basic." Facilities are simpler than at a fixed luxury lodge, yet a well-run mobile camp usually still provides proper beds and en-suite bucket showers. It is a comfortable arrangement even though the camp itself is temporary. The big payoff is timing. If you book a mobile camp during the season when it is following the migration, the game viewing is noticeably better than at a fixed camp that just waits and hopes the herds wander past. When tracking the migration is a real priority for your trip, a mobile camp merits serious thought over a fixed alternative.
