They are similar to the tents used in permanent tented game lodges but do not usually have attached showers and toilet at the rear. Canvas mess tents are the rule, sturdy camp furnishings will be of the highest quality, and ice will never be absent. A few extra touches include white cloths on the table, uniformed waiters, and the regular appearance of wine and liquors at meals. The staff are apt to be larger, and the service more polished. Indeed, the entire tone of the safari is more formal.
