Prime Location for Early Game Drives
Situated on the Eastern rim of the Ngorongoro Crater, near Crater Lodge, our camp is inside the park boundaries, allowing for early morning game drivesβgiving you the chance to explore the crater before the crowds arrive.
Ngorongoro is home to over 25,000 animals, including the elusive 23 Black Rhinos. It is one of the only places in the world where you may witness these magnificent creatures in the wild.
π« No Giraffes? The Maasai Giraffes cannot navigate the craterβs steep slopes, making them a rare sight in this area.
For a cultural experience, visit a Maasai Boma just a few kilometers away to meet the local Maasai people and learn about their traditional way of life.

Guest Testimonials
π βWe had a lovely time meeting fellow travelers over pre-dinner drinks, enjoying great food, and sleeping in comfy beds with hot water bottles. Returning from a fantastic crater tour where we saw baby elephants, zebras, warthogs, and monkeys, our kids were thrilled to discover a herd of 50 elephants right beyond our tent. We watched themβincluding the babiesβuntil local cattle herders guided them away. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful. A fantastic introduction to Africa!β
