Entamanu Ngorongoro is perched high on the wild side of the Ngorongoro Crater rim, a thoughtfully designed refuge in this elemental place to explore the unique highland environment in which it sits. Surrounded by the soaring peaks of dormant volcanic hills and the ebb and flow of Maasai pastoralist life, this is a place to explore beyond the hustle and bustle of the main tourist trail at the Crater. Not only to visit the Crater but also to understand it as part of a more comprehensive environment.

Seven large en-suite cottage-style rooms and two family units, cozy with heaters, warm textiles, and sheepskin, look across the iconic Crater view with a backdrop of ancient acacia trees. The style here is as unique as the location—everything is carefully handcrafted locally to the highest standard.

Nothing is tame about this location—the high-altitude sun has some natural heat, and the wind can be biting and sometimes noisy. Nomad Tanzania has taken up the challenge of creating a camp that makes the most of the extraordinary view while providing warmth and shelter from the elements while being entirely removable. Every design detail has been considered in light of this while still providing comfort in this elemental place.
