Kisima Ngeda Tented Camp – A Hidden Gem on the Shores of Lake Eyasi

Discover an authentic and immersive safari experience in northern Tanzania, where nature, culture, and comfort come together.

Located on a 200-hectare private farm beside Lake Eyasi, Kisima Ngeda Tented Camp offers a unique escape into nature. The camp is tucked within a dense forest of doum palms and fever trees, making it feel both remote and peaceful. Moreover, a spring just steps from the mess area feeds natural rock pools and a freshwater estuary rich in birdlife. Behind the camp, a striking granite hill creates a dramatic natural backdrop.

A Quiet Retreat Surrounded by Nature

The camp features eight palm-thatched tented chalets, all raised on wooden decks and thoughtfully integrated into the forest setting. Each tent has a private veranda, perfect for relaxing while taking in the view. Inside, you’ll find a king-size bed and a cozy armchair that invite you to unwind.

Behind the sleeping area is an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower and a separate toilet. For a unique touch, the staff heats water using a Tanganyika boiler, which burns dried palm fronds. Additionally, locally inspired decor elements—like handcrafted mirrors and brass-coiled lampshades—pay tribute to the region’s indigenous cultures.

Activities That Inspire and Connect

While many come to relax, there’s also plenty to explore. At Kisima Ngeda, you can step away from the safari vehicle and connect with nature in a more personal way.

Walk, Hike, and Discover

Guests can enjoy scenic walks along the lake shore or explore the nearby forest on foot. Furthermore, hiking into the surrounding granite hills offers breathtaking views—especially during sunset. This is an ideal way to experience the landscape at your own pace.

Meet the Hadza and Datoga Tribes

What truly sets Kisima Ngeda apart is its close connection to the local culture. In the hills nearby, the Hadza people continue to live as hunter-gatherers, preserving a way of life that is thousands of years old. Our expert guides lead respectful cultural tours, offering insight into their traditions, tracking skills, and foraging methods.

In addition, you’ll have the chance to meet the Datoga, a pastoralist tribe known for metalworking and cattle herding. These cultural interactions offer a deeper understanding of Tanzania’s diverse heritage, and every visit is handled with care and authenticity.

Ombako Fly Camp – A Deeper Adventure

For those seeking more than just a glimpse into tribal life, Kisima Ngeda offers fly camping experiences. These overnight trips take you into the eastern hills of Lake Eyasi, guided by Hadza hosts.

During your stay at Ombako Fly Camp, you’ll hike through stunning wilderness, explore ancient rock art sites, and swim in shaded spring pools. You’ll also learn about local plants like the desert rose, used for making arrow poisons. As night falls, enjoy a fireside dinner under a vast, star-filled sky.
