Ngorongoro Serena Lodge

 Click image to enlarge.

Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge is quite masterfully built in to the jagged rim of the crater, wreathed in morning mist, camouflaged in river-stone and cloaked in indigenous creepers. Sensitively constructed so as to take nothing from its environment whilst affording endless vistas over the heat-shimmering reaches of the crater below, the clustered boulder-built buildings of the Lodge hug the crater rim, linked by rope-lashed timber walkways that skirt the buttressed roots of ancient, liana-hung trees.

Location:
Situated at the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater in the Volcanic Highlands of Northern Tanzania.

Accommodation and facilities:
The seventy five spacious, centrally heated guest rooms are spacious with en suite facilities and balconies overlooking the Ngorongoro Crater. The furniture is created from rich hardwood timber and the interior decor recalls the theme of Ngorongoro’s prehistoric past, with original uses of stone, metal and wall paintings. The lounge and dining room are set indoors overlooking the Crater through large picture glass panels. The restaurant and bar are resplendent with magnificent examples of prehistoric cave paintings found in the nearby Olduvai Gorge. The full-service lounge has an outdoor balcony and a fixed telescope for guests’ use.

Activities:
Game drives, sundowners on Observation Hill, traditional feasts and tribal dancing overlooking a waterhole , musical evenings and visits to the traditional manyattas of the Amboseli Maasai.

Special attractions:
Guests can spend a day visiting a selection of authentic Maasai villages where you will be invited in to their homes and allowed a unique insight in to the lives and fascinating culture.
