Perched above cool, swirling mists on the edge of the Ngorongoro Crater, the lavish safari suites at &Beyond Ngorongoro Crater Lodge offer breath-taking views. Frequently described as Maasai meets Versailles, each camp has its own guest sitting and dining areas, as well as viewing decks. Lodge experiences at Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s largest intact caldera, are designed to ensure you soak up the spectacular views.

Aside from sublime game drives, indulge in a feast on the Crater floor, enjoy three amazing hikes, meet the Hadzabe people or visit a traditional Maasai boma. Discover Olduvai Gorge or spend a day with a lion conservation team. Enjoy lodge activities with dinner in the wine cellar, sundowners with Maasai or a beading lesson.

Game drives descend into the Ngorongoro Crater through a lush highland forest, with magnificent birdlife to be spotted among the different tree species. Once on the grassy crater floor, discover a large variety of grazing herbivores, as well as predators. Depending on the time of year, you may see huge flocks of pink flamingo around the shores of the shallow Lake Magadi.
