    Chada Katavi

    Contact the agency

    As close to the bush as possible

    At the heart of Katavi National Park, to the east of the shores of Lake Tanganyika, lies Chada Katavi, an intimate luxury lodge with just 6 tents remarkably well camouflaged beneath a canopy of acacia and tamarind trees. Its remote location in the far west of Tanzania makes it an exhilarating safari destination, highly abundant in wildlife. Katavi National Park, although Tanzania's 3rd largest park in terms of surface area, has the advantage of being geographically isolated and therefore little visited. Its vast plains are home to some of Africa's largest herds of buffalo, its rivers teem with hippos and crocodiles, its forests hide graceful and unpredictable felines, and there is always something going on... Chada Katavi is an ideal bush retreat offering deeply moving safari activities, from the camp itself, a 4x4 or a guided walk. As an option, you can book a night under the stars in a lightweight tent, closer to nature, if you want to experience the true African bush!

    THE EXTRAORDINARY

    Katavi is a huge park of nearly 4,500 km², comprising the Katuma river and the vast floodplains of lakes Chada and Katavi. To soak up the magic of this universe, Chada Katavi offers fabulous 3 to 4-day fly-camping treks allowing you to venture into very remote areas. For a more complete experience of western Tanzania, Chada Katavi combines perfectly with Greystoke Mahale.

    ETHICS

    Nomad Tanzania, the owner of Chada Katavi, donates 3$ per night to the Nomad Trust, which includes the Mimampi project – named after the forest where the Pimbwe people originally came from. As a result, the community has gained the capacity to manage its own reserve and provides financial support for projects run by women and beekeepers.
