Ngorongoro Crater Lodge is located in northern Tanzania on the edge of the Ngorongoro Crater, the largest intact caldera in the world at 2,000 feet deep. Daily game drives on the Crater floor, walking safaris, and the unique opportunity to dine within the Crater give guests an up-close-and-personal wildlife viewing experience.

An estimated 25,000 large mammals are residents of the Crater, including a large population of lion. Large numbers of buffalo, zebra and Thomson’s gazelle can be seen grazing the crater floor. Natural springs and a soda lake within the Crater provide unique areas to tour and hold seasonal flamingo populations. This natural wonder is a veritable wildlife haven, and bird enthusiasts will enjoy world class birdwatching.


During their stay, guests will enjoy beautiful accommodations with private baths, fireplaces, stunning views of the Crater from floor-to-ceiling windows, as well as amenities including a shop, wine cellar, wifi, complimentary laundry, and in-room massage services. Suites are stilted with banana leaf ceilings and grass roofs, service is personalized and detail-oriented, and the Masai-inspired lodge is elegantly constructed to enhance the breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. Day-trips to Olduvai Gorge and Shifting Sands are available from Ngorongoro Crater Lodge.


Ngorongoro Crater Lodge has some of the world’s finest wildlife viewing.

Client Testimonials

"Our honeymoon was definitely the trip of a lifetime and one we will never forget. Thanks so much for making it perfect."
Cindy Chupack, Producer Sex and the City
"I've been traveling all over the world for twenty years, but my trip this month to Africa put together by your firm was the smoothest and best planned trip I've ever made. The various places we stayed were outstanding and the uniqueness of each location added to the charm and atmosphere of the trip. The service I received from the guides, drivers and hotel attendants made me feel like royalty. The most impressive part was how smooth everything worked. Thanks again for your hard work, dedication and professionalism. I look forward to another trip with you."
Mike Blair, Managing director-Investments Wachovia Securities Inc.
"Thank you for a superb job of planning and organizing as everything went smoothly. The country of South Africa so captivated me that my husband and I are already planning a return trip next summer. The only thing to rival the bush and animals was the food. The experience of South Africa is like no other and its effect is difficult to express. I can only encourage others to make the venture."
