Vuma Hills Tented Camp, Mikumi

Nestled in the forests of the Vuma Mountains that overlook the Mkata Plains of the Mikumi below, Vuma Hills Tented Camp is a cool retreat from the heat of a day's game drive.The sixteen tents are comfortably furnished, so sleeping under canvas at Vuma is a far cry from the discomfort usually associated with remote bush camps. Complete with shaded wooden veranda at the front and en-suite bathroom facilities at the back there is not much more to be asked for. The cosy bar area centres round a roaring log fire pit, opening onto a large decking area from where you can take in the setting sun over the Mkata plains below. Under the same thatch, the dining area enjoys widespread views through the lush trees, and overlooking the swimming pool.
