Located on a working coffee estate on the outskirts of Arusha, Legendary Lodge is the gateway to Tanzania’s northern safari circuit. A sanctuary amid tropical gardens, the lodge features 12 peaceful cottages (including 2 family cottages) perfect for preparing for or reflecting on your safari.
Each cottage features split-level living, king-size beds with mosquito nets, deep-soaking bathtubs, a fully-stocked bar fridge, and the comforts of a modern home, including satellite television, direct dial telephone, and Wi-Fi. Dining at the lodge is à la carte, and guests can indulge in delicious meals ranging from full English breakfasts and tapas-style lunches to 3-course gourmet dinners.
Guests can spend the day relaxing poolside or in the garden, and bicycles are available for those who wish to use the cycling and walking trails to explore the estate. The lodge spa offers a range of rejuvenating treatments – perfect for de-stressing after a long flight. Those interested in exploring the area can choose from optional excursions, including coffee tours, shopping at the nearby Cultural Heritage Centre or Maasai market, or day trips to the Arusha, Tarangire and Manyara national parks.
The lodge is fifteen minutes from the Arusha Airport and 90 minutes from Kilimanjaro International Airport.

The Highlands redefines the Ngorongoro experience. Set on the edge of the mountain forest hugging the Olmoti Crater to the north of Ngorongoro Crater, The Highlands strikes a perfect balance between a true wilderness experience and a stylish, contemporary escape. Experience the highlands of the wild Ngorongoro Conservation Area surrounding the camp, home to buffalo, smaller predators, and majestic moorland scenery. Follow ancient Maasai trails to the rim of the Olmoti Crater and visit local communities to catch a glimpse into the traditional Maasai way of life that has defined this corner of East Africa for centuries. The famous Ngorongoro Crater is easily accessible from camp, while the setting ensures maximum privacy, a rich adventure, and a range of activities not possible elsewhere in Ngorongoro.

Lemala Mpingo Ridge sits on top of an escarpment with sweeping views across the perennial Tarangire River and valley below and matches the same outstanding standards of comfort and service as the other properties in Lemala’s collection.
Being the sixth largest national park in Tanzania, Tarangire remains slightly off the main safari circuit but is a terrifically scenic park featuring classic African savannah, green hills, woodlands and rivers and is especially famous for its large herds of elephants, superb birdlife and giant baobab trees. Guests at Lemala Mpingo Ridge will enjoy a real sense of wilderness and excellent game viewing, and it’s both a relaxing standalone destination and a great place to start a safari that also combines Lemala properties in the Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti.
