Introduction

Ngorongoro Farm House is a fantastic base from which to explore all the surrounding attractions whilst offering good value for money to boot.

The lodge is set on a working farm (hence the name) and is ideally situated halfway between the attractions of Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara whilst offering activities locally that include mountain biking, hiking and cultural visits.

We describe this lodge more as a rural / farming destination from which one visits the surrounding and local attractions from a central base. A great destination for couples, families and small groups of friends travelling together.

We've hand-picked a range of lodges that offer easy access to the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater, home to an incredible variety of wildlife. Whether you're looking for luxury accommodations on the crater rim or a more budget-friendly option in Oldeani or Karatu, we have something for everyone.

Experiencing the Ngorongoro Conservation Area is an experience you will never forget!
