BEST SPOTS FOR WATCHING WILDLIFE
Kuro is a uniquely rustic yet very comfortable camp in the heart of the Tarangire National Park, surrounded by lush plains and teeming wildlife.
From a distance you will barely notice Kuro; it is so well settled into the surrounding bush that it isn’t merely ‘part of the landscape’, it is the landscape. Wooden structure, thatched roof, open sides…its tonal values, and the materials from which it is made, perfectly match the local habitat. Specify Kuro as a destination on your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Tanzania and you’ll be able to walk to the Tarangire River, itself rich in game, or take a leisurely game drive to the Silale Swamp, one of the best spots for watching wildlife.
Then all you have to do is wait. It won’t be long before elephants, moving with uncanny quietness, amble past. You’re also highly likely to see lion, leopard, giraffe, zebra, eland, buffalo and impala.
