Rated in 4 /
Set close to the Crater rim in an area rarely used by other vehicles but about five to ten minutes from the entrance to the Ngorongoro Crater floor, Lemala Ngorongoro not only offers an intimate and secluded experience but also delivers a great safari experience. The communal areas have been designed to make you feel at home: lounge around on large sofas, choose a book from the book corner or just admire the beauty of the area.
Guests are encouraged to dine communally with a nature expert and there'll be plenty to talk about: guests can experience amazing crater floor game viewing all year round in one of the best Big 5 reserves in East Africa. After your drive, take a walk with a Maasai warrior in the forests that cover the rim of the crater to get stunning views and a chance to spot a different set of animals.
Lemala Ngorongoro is a fantastic option for groups of friends or family traveling together as well as couples and individuals hoping for thrilling Big-5 safari experiences in an iconic destination. The camp's proximity to the lesser-used Lemala crater access road allows for a crucial ten to fifteen minutes on the crater floor before the crowds, making it a great option for keen photographers searching for the best light conditions at uncrowded sightings.
Highlights
Activities
The only mobile tented camp on the crater rim giving you that real 'bush feeling'! The heaters in the tents and the hot water bottles in the beds give it a very homely feeling.
Rooms
Two Bedroom Suite
Perfect for friends or family traveling together, the two-bedroom tented suite combines two spacious bedrooms connected by a comfortable shared lounge in which you can enjoy sundowners or morning coffee together. Each bedroom is similar to the standard tent with two queen-size beds and an en-suite bathroom.
Standard Tent
Lemala Ngorongoro's spacious and comfortable tents accommodate two queen-size beds, or one king-size bed and are furnished with little luxuries like warm winter-weight duvets, hot water bottles, and gas heaters to ensure a cozy night’s sleep, as the Ngorongoro Crater rim does get quite cool at night.
The en-suite bathrooms contain a dressing area, flush toilet, and safari bucket shower. Soak in the beautiful leafy green views from the comfortably furnished deck nestled amongst a grove of sacred acacia trees.
Facilities
Included in the mess tent is a communal lounge area of comfy couches and chairs and a bookshelf of old and new classics to keep you entertained.
The evenings at Lemala are filled with performances by the local Maasai community who dance, sing, and share stories about their culture and traditions.
Dining
At Lemala Ngorongoro, a delicious blend of international and local-inspired meals are served alfresco under the starry skies or in the large mess tent under the glow of beautiful chandeliers.
