A lovely tented camp with 20 well equipped en-suite tented rooms at Lake Masek in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area adjacent to the Southern Serengeti plains.
The rooms are canvas under thatch and pole structure and on raised decks looking towards the nearby lake. There are five with king size beds, 15 with twin beds and the camp has solar power. There is a cosy lounge area and bar looking over the lake and a library area. Meals are served in the dining area or on the balcony.
Note that Lake Masek Camp is in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and you would normally be game viewing inside the NCA. Additional park entry fees for Serengeti will be required should you enter through the park gates.
Bush breakfasts and sundowner drinks and snacks can be arranged in private locations on request.
Walks or escorted hikes with local Maasai guides can be arranged to gain an insight to their culture and way of life.
This whole area is famous for it's archeological findings and volcanic geology. Lake Masek is just one hour from Olduvai Gorge where there is a museum and you can also visit the Laetoli archeological site where footrpints of Australopithecus afarensis were discovered by Mary Leakey in the mid 1970s, which demonstrates that 3.6million years ago early humans were walking upright.
