Culinary and A Day of Dining on Safari

Dining on safari with Lion Track Safari is more than just a meal—it’s a delicious journey into Tanzanian culture, flavors, and hospitality. Whether you’re waking up to the sounds of the savannah or enjoying a lantern-lit dinner under the stars, every bite is a celebration of local ingredients and warm service.

Sunrise to Sunset: Your Safari Dining Experience

• Morning Wake-Up
  Begin your day with a freshly brewed cup of Tanzanian coffee or tea, served with homemade biscuits just outside your tent. Then enjoy a hearty bush breakfast with eggs made to order, fresh fruit, toast, and tropical juices—all while overlooking breathtaking landscapes.

• Lunch in the Wild
  Whether it’s a picnic lunch in the Serengeti or a sit-down meal at a mobile camp, our midday meals are both satisfying and scenic. Expect light salads, grilled meats, vegetarian options, and refreshing drinks prepared by our expert camp chefs.

• Sundowners and Snacks
  As the day winds down, gather around for sundowners—a safari tradition. Sip a chilled drink while nibbling on spiced cashews or crispy samosas as the sky turns golden above the plains.

• Evening Dinner Under the Stars
  Dinner is a highlight, served outdoors with soft lanterns or by a cozy campfire. Enjoy a three-course meal featuring local and international dishes—such as grilled tilapia, coconut rice, or beef stew—paired with your choice of wine or a local beer. Vegetarian, vegan, and dietary requests are always accommodated.

Locally Sourced, Expertly Prepared

All our meals are prepared using fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Our chefs blend Swahili-inspired flavors with classic safari-style dishes to create menus that are both comforting and adventurous.
