Ang’ata Camp Ngorongoro

The camp is located on the eastern side of the Ngorongoro Crater rim. This makes it ideal for early morning visits into this most spectacular setting for game viewing. Over 25,000 animals call this crater their home, including the black rhino!

From Arusha city by road, the journey to the camp is around 190 kilometers or 4 hours. An alternative is to take an internal flight from Arusha or Kilimanjaro airports to Lake Manyara Airstrip, where you can be transferred by vehicle to the camp, which is only a 60-minute flight and one hour drive from the airstrip to the lodge.

There are many options near the camp. For example, you might choose to descend into the lesser-known, spectacular Empakaai Crater on a day hike (2 hours drive from camp to Empakaai crater), visit a Maasai Village to learn about their culture, take a donkey ride with the locals, or do a crater rim walk with an armed ranger. You could also enjoy a bush lunch on the crater floor. You could even celebrate your wedding or vow renewal in Maasai style. Just book in advance through our reservations office.

The camp is in a wonderful setting, but as it is amongst shady acacia trees, there are no actual crater views from the camp itself.

No, as the solar power system in operation at the camp does not provide enough power for hairdryers and other high-energy devices.

You can only charge devices in the communal lounge, not in guest tents.

Guests are always advised to drink bottled water at the camp and use the water in the taps for showers and washing. Use bottled water for cleaning your teeth, too.
