Burunge Tented Lodge

🌍 Tanzania

📍 Tarangire

Burunge Tented Lodge sits in the Burunge Wildlife Management Area on Tarangire’s west side, facing the lake and big skies. It’s mid-range and excellent value for guests who like sunset decks, a pool and a calmer pace—accepting a slightly longer morning run to the river loops inside the park.

Pricing: typically $295–$315 per double in high season; around $175–$190 in low season (Mar–May).

Thoughtful comparisons: Same-tier: Tarangire Kati Kati Tented Camp (mid-range; closer to dawn sightings but simpler). Step up: Tarangire Simba Lodge (upper mid-range; larger rooms/pool) or Maramboi Tented Lodge (luxury; resort polish by the lake corridor).

Safari context: The west gives beautiful baobab-and-lake scenes with fewer vehicles; leave early to be inside the park for the first cool hour when activity peaks.
