Ngorongoro Tented Camp

On the eastern side of the Ngorongoro Crater, right next to the quiet Lemala access road, Ngorongoro Tented Camp stands in an old acacia forest. Game drives from the camp can start as early as 6.15 am. Ten spacious tents are spread out so that each keeps to itself, each with two queen-size beds and a large bathroom with dressing area, flush toilet and shower. Warm winter blankets, gas heaters and hot water bottles make for a cosy night. Yes, hot water bottles. On safari. The main tent with lounge and bar is furnished with large sofas, lamps and bookshelves. In the evening guests gather around the campfire to talk about the day, followed by a hearty dinner. With an armed ranger and a Maasai guide you can also walk through the forest and along the crater rim.
