Entamanu Camp
The Camp
On the remote North Western edge of the Ngorongoro Crater, the camp is uniquely off the beaten track but right on the Crater rim, with exceptional views down into the Ngorongoro Crater from one side (sunrise), and out over the Serengeti from the other (perfect for sundowners). This is the wild side of the Crater where the exclusivity and views are unsurpassed.
Entamanu Ngorongoro (meaning ‘circle’ in Maa) is the only place in the world where you can enjoy views into both the Crater and the Serengeti. Offering an unspoilt experience of the Crater, and the land and culture that surrounds it. It is a place to escape to, from which to learn and understand where the Crater fits as part of the wider environment.
The Tents
Entamanu Ngorongoro has six canvas rooms elevated on wooden platforms, with two family rooms made up of two full size rooms and a shared bathroom. Each room has indoor heating and en-suite bathrooms with hot and cold running water, and flush loos. Every effort has been made to create comfort in this elemental place.
The Activities
Entamanu is the perfect spot for a more private experience of this wildlife mecca. Being right on the rim, the camp has access to the Crater soon after dawn, avoiding the crowds, to take you to see the outstanding volumes of wildlife: from some of Africa’s last rhinoceros to flamingoes to lovebirds.
Walking safaris are also a highly regarded experience. These are the unforgettable moments in Africa which very few get, to have it properly beneath your feet. You’ll be out of the vehicles with your guide, in the sparkling highland air. Along too, a Maasai scout – showing you his particular version of the natural world – and an armed ranger to keep you safe.
Often, as well, is the opportunity to drop round to see the camps Maasai neighbors, who are living a largely traditional life in the boma in the next valley, and still grazing their cattle in the conservation area. It will be just you and them, and a warm welcome with insights into the pastoral life from building huts to warrior ceremonies.
