Tindiga Camp

From $180 per person/night

Learn about life with descendants of Tanzania's most ancient cultures

Tindiga Tented Camp lies in northern Tanzania near Lake Eyasi, southwest of the Ngorongoro hills. The views here are vast, and all the more interesting because they encompass a large part of the area that's been occupied for centuries by the nomadic Datoga and Hadzabe people, who still live and play the way their ancestors did. Tindiga is a modest but comfortable camp, offering 10 tented rooms with en-suite bathrooms, a communal bar/lounge and a restaurant that was built by Datoga women. Visit the Hadzabe, the last known people to live by hunting and gathering, to improve your bow-and-arrow skills.

You’ll walk across pristine plains, scramble up rocky hills, and camp each night in a different spot in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, close to Lake Eyasi. If you’re looking for an authentic safari experience with a hefty dose of adventure, then this is it.

Slow down with the hunter-gathers in northern Tanzania

In the midst of your hectic northern Tanzanian safari, you may want to take your foot off the pedal for a few days. Ziwani Lodge, on the north-eastern shore of Lake Eyasi, just south of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, is the perfect place to do so. The spectacular scenery of the Great Rift Valley is on full show here, and it's also home to the Hadzabe people, the last hunter-gatherers in East Africa. There's real attention to detail at this two-year-old Moroccan/Zanzibari-style lodge, with its refined sense of luxury. It's a lovely setting from which to experience the local cultures.

From $580 per person/night

A hidden treasure just off Tanzania's well-trodden northern safari circuit.

Heading to northern Tanzania to experience the epic game viewing and mesmerising landscapes of the Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Kilmanjaro? Sadly, you're not alone. Break from the crowds and take a slight detour to immerse yourself in ancient African culture at Kisima Ngeda Camp on the shores of Lake Eyasi. Surrounded by fever tree forest on a 100-hectare family farm, the camp is fronted by a natural spring lagoon that attracts a steady stream of birdlife. The real reason to come here, though, is to interact with the Hadzabe people, whose hunter-gathering lifestyle has changed little during the past 10,000 years.
