The Safari exceeded Sue’s and my expectations and has been a continuous talking point since our return.

LEMALA NGORONGORO




Lemala Ngorongoro is an intimate, seasonal camp set in a delightful, ancient acacia forest on the rim of the crater next to the quiet Lemala access route. The camp offers accommodation under canvas in only 8 luxury tents and 1 family tent.
Each spacious tent is fitted with a gas heater, large single or king-size beds with warm duvets, wooden flooring with rugs, 24-hour solar lighting, en-suite bathrooms with a dressing area, flush toilet and a large safari shower.
The camp works closely with the local Maasai community who often provide dances and talks on Maasai culture, tradition and ceremonies.
Lemala’s major advantage over other accommodation in the area, is the quick and easy access into the crater, which maximizes game viewing opportunities. Game drives from the camp may start as early as 6.15am and it only takes 15 minutes to descend onto the crater floor, the scenery is breath-taking and the wildlife abundant. Lemala guests therefore enjoy longer and significantly higher quality game drives.
The other advantage of this location is its close proximity to Ol Moti and Empakai craters, which offer beautiful landscapes and scenery. Walks from the camp into the forest and along the crater rim together with an armed ranger and the Maasai escort gives guests spectacular panoramas of the crater and an insight into the forest dwelling animals.
This camp can function as a stand alone destination or as part of a high quality safari circuit including some of Lemala's other luxury seasonal camps including at Lake Manyara, and the Lemala Serengeti Camps, Ndutu, Ewanjan and Mara
