Sanctuary Ngorongoro Crater Camp Location Map

Sanctuary Ngorongoro Crater Camp is located in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area within the Ngorongoro Crater rim valley. The camp is located very close to the crater floor access road allowing for quick and easy access to the crater floor - perfect for early morning crater safaris.

The crater, which formed when a large volcano exploded and collapsed on itself 2 to 3 million years ago, is 610 metres deep and its floor covers 260 square kilometres.

Supported by a year round supply of water and food, the crater is densely populated with wildlife and is home to about 30,000 animals including zebra, buffalo, warthog, wildebeest, hippo and elephants, and an amazing population of predators - lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and the elusive leopard.

The main common areas of the camp include a dining area where scumptious buffet-style meals are served, while the lounge area is perfect for afternoon relaxation and the lounge bar where pre-dinner drinks are served. All the main areas including breathtaking views of the spectacular surrounding scenery and large trees surrounding this intimate camp. 

For a more intimate experience guests can choose to dine on individual tables set in special spots around the camp.

The camp offers 10 luxury safari room tents - each with its own en-suite bathroom and indoor bucket shower, with a personal tent attendant filling your bucket shower to the perfect temperature whenever required from the outside. There is also a small sitting area in front of each tent where early morning coffee and biscuits can be enjoyed before starting your day of incredible game viewing.

Most guests choose to enjoy an early breakfast at the camp before heading down into the crater for a full day game drive, indulging in a scrumptious packed lunch midway through the day at a scenic spot on the crater floor.

Cultural visits to a nearby Masai village can also be arranged.
