Entamanu Ngorongoro

PLAN MY TRIP

Perched high on the northern rim of the Ngorongoro Crater, Entamanu Ngorongoro gives access to both the crater and the wild northern highlands.

The camp consists of seven canvas tents, which are raised on elevated platforms to reduce the impact on the natural surroundings and maximize the great views. Each room has an en-suite bathroom with hot and cold running water, twin sinks, and flush toilets. Two of the tents are family units, each with two bedrooms that shared an adjoining bathroom.

All tents are furnished for comfort and protection from the high-altitude environment on this side of the crater. Textured wool, down duvets, and heaters provide warmth in the sleeping tents against the chilly nights, whereas fully open-able fronts let the breezes in as the sun warms the tent up during the day. Large verandas wrap around the front of the rooms and are the ideal place to sit and marvel at the view over the crater. The tent’s interiors are made of sustainably sourced wood, and, in fact, everything within the camp is locally sourced and made by talented Tanzanian artisans.

Entamanu Ngorongoro is perfectly situated on the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater, which is a large, unbroken, non-flooded volcanic caldera that is now home to large populations of zebra and wildebeest, as well as lions and endangered black rhino. Surrounded by volcanic peaks and nestled within a grove of acacia trees swathed in feathery moss, the camp looks out towards the sunrise over the crater.

Game drives into the crater are a requirement of any stay, and the camp is just a thirty-minute-drive from the descent gate. But Entamanu’s location in the northern highlands permits a wide and unique variety of other activities. Led by a local Maasai guide, guests can take walks along the rim of the crater and into the surrounding highlands. Bush walks are about slowing the pace down and soaking the beauty in the small, unnoticed flora and fauna missed from the vehicles, and guests will learn all about medicinal plants, Maasai beliefs, as well as track any local wildlife that has wondered close to camp. The camp is also fortunate to have exclusive access to some remote Maasai communities, allowing for exclusive and authentic cultural interactions.

In the evenings, inviting fires burn in the hearths of the cozy lounge and dining room. Communal dining and a bar are available from the main area as well as battery charging facilities. Integral to the camp’s ethos, the entire camp is completely removable with no truly permanent structures. The camp strives to leave a zero footprint on the natural habitat.
