About This Property
The Experience
Ngorongoro Wildlife Lodge is one of the oldest lodges on the Ngorongoro Crater rim, first built by the Tanzanian government. It is a mid-sized stone and wood building whose rooms have wide windows over the caldera, about 600 metres below. Rooms are simple but practical, with en-suite bathrooms, and there are family and suite options. The Rhino Lounge Bar opens onto a long terrace with binoculars set along the balcony for scanning the crater floor. It is a good-value base for an early descent into the crater, and the lodge is open all year.
