Ngorongoro Crater Lodge is built on the south-western rim of the Ngorongoro Crater. The Crater lies in northern Tanzania, at the western edge of the Great Rift Valley. It is surrounded to the west by the Serengeti National Park and Lake Eyasi, and to the north by Lake Natron. The nearest village is Karatu, 30km away.
Tree Camp is set in classic crescents, each stone and thatch suite has spectacular views of the crater from large glass windows in the bathroom, lounge and bedroom, yet is almost invisible from the crater floor. Due to the rainy season, this camp is CLOSED FROM 1 April to 25 May.
North and South Camp have 12 suites each, while intimate Tree Camp has six suites. All have an en suite bathroom and chandelier-lit bathtub and shower.
Each sumptuous suite is discreetly tended by a personal butler, who will bring you tea in bed, stoke your fireplace and draw your bath, scattering the water with rose petals, ready for your enjoyment. Askaris (Maasai warrior security guards) accompany you to and from your room at night.
