About Olduvai Camp

Located in the Ngorongoro Conservation area, close to the Olduvai Gorge, the Camp offers a truly unique bush experience between the Ngorongoro Crater and the vast Serengeti plains. Unlike national parks, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area does not exclude human life. Indeed, man and wildlife have been sharing this vast expanse of over 8 500 sqkm for hundreds of years...
The Masai live here on their ancestral lands and continue their traditional way of life. They are herdsmen whose lives revolve entirely around their cattle.The animals not only serve as food, but are also their only form of income and measure of their wealth.

The Camp is built around the shady edges of a kopje. The low hills rise up from the plains, and with massive granite boulders, trees and bushes, are a dramatic feature of the Savannah. The 17 comfortable tents offer a veranda with superb views over the plains, a tree lined shallow valley as well as the spectacular Ngorongoro Highlands and mountains.

Accommodation Options

Standard Tent
Olduvai's 17 accomodations are centered around the beautiful kopje. The thatched tents sit high on stone terraces peering out across the plains. All large safari canvas tents are quite similar in terms of lay-out and decoration, but each with its own special bush feeling. With private viewing decks, large bedroom, dressing area and ensuite bathrooms (flush toilets, wash basin and shower (24 hour hot water) the decor borrows from the earthy tones of the plains.
