Set on top of Umbwe Hill, Bashay Rift Lodge is ideally located in the heart of the fertile Karatu area, only a few kilometers away from the Ngorongoro Crater. The lodge offers breathtaking 360° views over the Karatu area, Lake Eyasi and the Rift Valley. All 32 rooms are spread in the wide and lovely garden and are decorated in a warm "Farm in Africa" style.
Leading off the beautiful garden terrace with commanding views over the valley, the main bar & lounge with its fire place is the perfect gathering point for sunsets and after the meals.
The elegant main restaurant with its terrace as well as the pergola close to the pool area offer traditional Tanzanian and international cuisine.
The guests’ favorite spot after a day of dust and heat in the bush is the modern swimming pool, equipped with an eco-friendly water system. The pool area enjoys the sun for most of the day and the warmth can be felt long after sunset.

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.
