Suricata Boma Lodge draws its name from the traditional circular enclosure of East African pastoralists  an apt metaphor for a lodge that creates a genuine sense of sanctuary within the magnificent wilderness of Tarangire National Park. The lodge's circular boma-inspired design creates spaces that feel both intimate and organically connected to the surrounding landscape. Tarangire National Park is one of Tanzania's most underappreciated jewels  a landscape defined by ancient baobab trees, the life-giving Tarangire River, and the largest concentration of elephants per square kilometre in all of Africa. Suricata Boma Lodge is ideally positioned to explore all of Tarangire's extraordinary natural riches. For travellers seeking comfortable, affordable access to Tarangire's outstanding wildlife without the formality of larger lodges, Suricata Boma delivers a satisfying and genuinely enjoyable safari experience. The lodge's character, warm hospitality, and excellent game-viewing access create a safari experience that is genuinely memorable.

"Elephants on the doorstep every day"

"Suricata Boma is a charming lodge with great personality. We had elephants within 50 metres of camp every single morning. The boma-style gathering area in the evening was a lovely touch. Excellent value."
