Overview of Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge
Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge is built on the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater, and its natural stone and ivy-covered walls blends in with its surroundings. The lodge has taken the cave paintings of Olduvai Gorge as its main décor inspiration, with all the interiors filled with African artifacts and frescos.
Enjoy game drives on the crater floor – home to an impressive wildlife and birdlife – or enjoy a guided hike with a picnic across the Serengeti plains or among the nearby volcanic mountains of the Crater Highlands.
Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge also offers historical and cultural tours to nearby Olduvai Gorge – the site of one of the most interesting palaeolithic finds in recent history – or to one of the local Maasai villages to meet the community.
After a long day you can enjoy a herbal massage at the lodge, browse the African wildlife library, or simply sit with a drink and enjoy the sunset over the crater.
