When you are out on a savannah safari and exploring the vastness of the Ngorongoro crater, never compromise your stay and comfort. There are many options for lodges and camps, but the accommodation capacity is limited. Thus, even if this ensures that there will be less crowd and that you will have a scenic view without any disturbance, it also increases the chance of staying. Thus, you need to book early to get your choice of stay and explore the untamed nature.
How to find the perfect accommodation?
When choosing the right place to stay in the savannah safari at the Ngorongoro crater, you must go through all the available options as they all offer different experiences. You must also consider the location as based on that you would be able to witness the great migration. You might regret it later if you book the wrong room at the wrong season. Also, consider your budget; beyond the place of stay, you would also need to spend on food supplies, park fees, vehicle and guide rents, parking charges, etc. The charges go higher based on the time of the year you are visiting the crater.
Different Options available for your stay:
Mobile tented camps
Mobile tent camps are also called seasonal camps, and they change their location every few months based on the wildlife’s migration pattern. As the animals move from one location to another, the mobile tent camps follow them. There won’t be any AC or electricity, but they are comfortable, and at night, you might even catch the sounds of hippos snorting or a wildebeest calling out.
Permanent tented camps
Permanent tent camps are similar to lodges and are fixed at a particular location. Most of them have furniture, plush linens, and gourmet menus. These places are luxurious and romantic and can be found in the best part of the park. Compared to the other accommodations found near the central area of the park, these camps are the most expensive.
Lodges
You can also find lodges but in limited numbers. Opt for these lodges if you are not used to camping in the middle of a national park. You can also find lodges with swimming pools and spa treatment located away from the high-density wildlife of the national park. Check out Ngorongoro crater lodge.
These lodges offer the best experience. Most people book a lodge when they want to see nature at its best. If you look to seek adventure and thrill, you should book your place of stay in a lodge.
Summing it up
Tanzania tourism is also working to ensure visitors’ comfort and safety. If you do not get the right lodge here, you can look for a place to stay in the neighboring national park of Kenya. If you are too tight on budget, go for the basic public campsites within the national park. What are you waiting for? Go ahead and check out the different options available. Take your pick from the best. Make sure that the accommodation fits your bill and serves the purpose.
