Surrounded by coffee plantations and the famous "Green Hills of Africa" that Hemingway found so inspiring, the beautiful Plantation Lodge is situated near the town of Kiratu.

Plantation Lodge is a refurbished collection of individual cottages, including one large guest house for families. The charming surrounds and Euro-African decor theme takes you back to the age of the first African safaris.

Gorgeous gardens allow you some time alone with the over 40 species of domestic birds, and there is a spectacular pool at the bottom end of the garden which overlooks the valleys below.

Enjoy trips to the bush and listen to the tales of the guides who will share the myths of the wilderness, watch the sunset behind the famous green hills, or visit the coffee plantations and learn how coffee is produced.

The convenient location of Plantation Lodge will also allow you to explore nearby attractions, such as Lake Manyara National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater, Empakaai & Olmoti Crater, the ancient hunter-gatherer tribe, the Hadzabe at Lake Eyasi and the Serengeti National Park.

Plantation Lodge is located just outside the town of Kiratu, Tanzania, on the lower slopes of the Ngorongoro Crater.
