The Ngorongoro Crater observed from Crater Camp

The Sanctuary Ngorongoro Crater Camp offers breathtaking vistas of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and is conveniently located on the access road to the crater and its floor.  Exceptional game-viewing is available in one of Africa’s foremost biodiversity hotspots.

 The Ngorongoro Crater was formed by a meteor impact on Earth thousands of years ago.  It is the sole intact caldera on Earth today, whose walls support a diverse array of species due to the availability of natural water supplies and ample food resources.  During morning and evening wildlife drives in the crater, tourists may observe wildebeest, hippopotamus, elephant, lion, cheetah, and leopard, among other species.

 The camp’s ten classic canvas tents enhance your typical camping experience with an element of luxury.  The accommodations have double beds, en-suite bathrooms, indoor camp showers, and modern amenities such as electrical outlets and hairdryers.  Guests will like the earthy hues of the decor, accentuated with reddish browns and mild yellows that emphasize the surrounding landscape.  When not engaged in safari activities or unwinding in your tent, socialize with fellow guests and your informed guides at the bar, lounge, and dining facilities.
