Sopa Lodge Ngorongoro

Facing the always magnificent sunsets to the west, and located at the highest point on Ngorongoro crater’s entire rim, Ngorongoro Sopa Lodge stands well over half a kilometer above the crater floor and offers unparalleled views across this enormous caldera.

Themed around traditionally circular African houses with conical roofs, and decorated with examples of Africa’s rich tapestry of artistic traditions by way of rich woodcarvings and sculptures, the lodge harmonizes perfectly with its dramatic surroundings. But the drama does not just stop with the great outdoors: it also flows through the split level interiors of the main building which all offer an unsurpassed generosity of space while somehow managing to combine an almost magically welcoming ambiance of both warmth and coziness.

Without forgetting an easy visit to the Olduvai Gorge, that explains in detail the evolution of humans. A mix of such completes your African Holiday.

At night, gather around a crackling fire with a glass of wine or whiskey before sitting down to a delicious three-course dinner. Overlooking the Crater, you will enjoy beautiful views of the crater, and the endless African Sky horizons.
