Set on the southeastern rim of the Ngorongoro Crater at Nyati Special Campsite, our camp offers an intimate and immersive safari experience at an elevation of 2,310 meters. Located near Crater Lodge, we provide the perfect gateway for early morning game drives, allowing you to explore this UNESCO World Heritage Site before the crowds arrive.
An Intimate Safari Retreat
As our smallest and most exclusive camp, Ang’ata Ngorongoro features:
✔ 8 guest tents, including a 2-tent family unit
✔ En-suite bathrooms with showers, vanity desks, and flush toilets
✔ Choice of bedding – King-size, Twin, or Triple accommodations
Relax in the lounge tent, where you can connect with fellow travelers over a complimentary cup of Tanzanian coffee or tea. Enjoy freshly prepared meals in our dining tent, or opt for a private bush lunch on the crater floor. As the evening sets in, gather around the Bush TV (campfire) and take in the serene wilderness.
A Prime Location for Exclusive Wildlife Encounters
Our location inside the park offers unparalleled access to the Ngorongoro Crater, home to over 25,000 animals, including:
✔ The rare and elusive Black Rhinos – One of the best places in Africa to spot them in the wild
✔ Large lion prides, massive elephant bulls, and a thriving predator population
✔ Diverse herbivores such as zebras, buffalo, and wildebeest
Unlike other safari locations, the steep crater walls prevent Maasai giraffes from entering, making this landscape truly unique. For a cultural experience, visit a nearby Maasai Boma to meet the Maasai people and learn about their traditions.
