Tanganyika Wilderness Safari

Resting at the foot of Mount Meru, the sprawling city of Arusha is known as the safari capital of northern Tanzania. It serves as an excellent base from which to explore the remarkably scenic surrounding area which includes majestic Mount Kilimanjaro, as well as the Manyara, Tarangire and Ngorongoro National Parks. Kahawa House is a homey lodge located in Arusha, just 6km southwest of the center of town, providing convenient access to Arusha Domestic Airport and is an ideal rest stop for visitors before they embark on their safari. There is a swimming pool as well as a deck where guests can enjoy lunch and dinner.

Nestled within a sprawling 300-acre private expanse along the picturesque shores of Lake Burunge in Mwada, our lodge boasts a prime position with sweeping vistas overlooking Tarangire National Park. Just a brief 20-minute drive from both the main entrance of Tarangire National Park and the 222 Sangaiwe entrance, our guests enjoy convenient access to the park’s abundant natural wonders.

Located in Northern Tanzania, the Ngorongoro Crater is best known for its natural beauty and abundance of diverse wildlife; which makes it one of Africa’s most popular safari destinations. Surrounded by Tanzania’s highlands, this UNESCO-listed crater is said to be the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera. Reminiscent of old colonial farm life, Ngorongoro Farm House is set amidst a 500-acre coffee plantation and gives guests the unique feel of rural African living. You can walk amid the coffee plants, picturesque lawns and gardens bursting with colorful blooms en route to one of the 52 cottages, 49 standard rooms and 3 suites. All rooms have a wide-open feel with vaulted ceilings, a tastefully decorated bedroom, a lounging area, as well as a bathroom and a private deck ideal for relaxing while looking out over the sweeping Rift Valley. The thatched main building is perfect for unwinding as well: sit back and look out over the plantation and flower gardens from the elevated deck, enjoy a cool cocktail in the bar, or warm yourself by the fireplace, a welcome amenity in the fresh, brisk air of the highlands.

Lake Masek Tented Camp is located by the shores of Lake Masek, right between the vast plains of the Serengeti National Park and the northwest side of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and only a two hour tour scenic drive from Olduvai Gorge’s Museum.
