A red alkaline lake, thousands of flamingos and the volcano Ol Doinyo Lengai. Wild, hot and wonderfully remote.
Below are 8 stays in Lake Natron, grouped by type. Rates are per person sharing and are indicative until we quote your dates.
Very few places to stay and most are simple. Expect hot days, big skies and a sense of the edge of the world.
Canvas on the outside, proper beds and hot showers on the inside. These are the stays that most people picture when they dream of safari.
Canvas suites with proper beds, private decks and ensuite bathrooms, where the volcano stands over the lake.
Tented suites with copper baths and four-poster beds, where the volcano stands over the lake.
Only a handful of tents, each with its own veranda, where the volcano stands over the lake.
Simpler camps with the same wildlife and the same guides. Great value, with more of the budget left for activities.
Simple tents and warm company around the fire, where the volcano stands over the lake.
Honest food, hot bucket showers and guides who know every track, where the volcano stands over the lake.
Small and unfussy, and exactly where you want to be when the volcano stands over the lake.
Solid walls, a pool and a bigger dining room. Easy, comfortable and a favourite for families and first-time visitors.
A comfortable lodge with a pool and a terrace, where the volcano stands over the lake.
Spacious suites, a long bar and a pool for the afternoon, where the volcano stands over the lake.
Curious where everything sits? Open the map and explore the area before you choose.
Look at the lodges first, then ask about age rules, family rooms and a pool.
Choose a tented camp with a private deck. Ask us to add a bush dinner or a surprise.
Ask about interconnecting rooms or booking a whole camp. We can manage the sleeping plan for every age.
Bush and mid-range camps give the same wildlife for much less. Green-season rates are the lowest.
We suggest 2 nights. That is long enough to settle in and make the most of the wildlife without rushing.
June – October. Green-season rates are lower, and the landscape is lusher.
Drive from Arusha or Serengeti, about 5 hours. We arrange every transfer and flight for you.
