Greystoke Mahale, Tanzania

Located on the jungle-clad shores of Lake Tanganyika, where Henry Morton Stanley uttered the famous words “Dr. Livingstone, I presume?” and where Jane Goodall conducted her groundbreaking primate studies, Greystoke Mahale literally erases the boundary between untamed nature and civilized luxury – its six thatched bandas (huts), set on the forest line overlooking the lake, are missing a fourth wall. So instead of traffic (there are no roads within 62 miles of camp and access is by plane) you’ll hear the morning wake-up call of chimpanzees. Following breakfast, head out with trackers into the tropical forest that covers the slopes of the mountains, home to no fewer than nine primate species, including the chimp. In the afternoon, go fishing or kayaking on the lake (full of tropical fish, it’s the second deepest in the world) and enjoy a sundowner on the resort’s dhow before retreating to the upstairs “chill-out deck” in your bandas. Relaxed, we presume? www.greystoke-mahale.com
