How it all Began
Guests can relax, enjoy nature, or participate in the campground’s rich social life. Annual sites and vacation homes give RV travelers the option of making this a home away from home.

Naming from the Giants of the Plains
During construction of camps in the Tangi area east of Murchison Falls National Park, the frequent visits of elephants inspired names like Elephant Camp and Bwana Tembo (“Sir Elephant” in Swahili), celebrating the region’s deep connection to wildlife.

Establishment of a Wild River Retreat
A a safari base offering river views, open‑air terrain, and direct access to game drives and the Nile experiences, the area was attracting nature lovers eager to witness elephants, hippos, and birds in their natural habitat.

Safari Lodges Embrace Conservation & Comfort
As Uganda’s safari tourism grew, camps like Tangi Elephant Camp adapted to offer more amenities — from guided nature walks to outdoor lounges — while promoting responsible tourism and community engagement.
