Ngorongoro Wilderness Camp

Ngorongoro Wilderness Camp is a ‘seasonal’ camp located inside the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Seasonal camps have the benefit of being able to move to some of the best game viewing areas of the park and every three to six months we move to a new location. Ngorongoro Wilderness Camp is located at Ndutu 8 – in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area side, overlooking Lake Ndutu – from December to March 2011.

Ngorongoro Wilderness Camp comprises of ten tents, with en suite facilities, solar lighting and eco-friendly toilets. Chilly nights are taken care of with warm duvets, hot water bottles and gas heaters in the communal areas.

A safari chef will prepare wholesome and varied meals during your stay at the camp. Meals are served in a large mess tent and the communal lounge and bar area is a great place to relax in the cool evenings. Maasai warriors provide security for the camp and this in turn provides them with much needed employment.  Ngorongoro Wilderness Camp is an exclusive, but simple tented camp for those not keen on large lodges and hotels.
