Wow! This camp has been designed ecologically sensitive as possible. Its more ecological camp in Tanzania and the camp have been designed to be 100% removable within three month return to its natural state policy. in time of extremely drought, we do allow local livestock to graze for short periods in the morning hours. In this way we foster community understanding but also give wildlife opportunity to thrive as well. We encourage and limit any chemical being introduced to the local water sources by briefing guests as well as ensuring that grey water source do not reach to the springs.

Spectacular and interesting place in the middle of nowhere. We arrived in the early afternoon, and found the surroundings rough in the harsh light. Then the evening light came and changed everything to the most beautiful warm hue. The hotel was wonderful with excellent service. The tents are large and beds are really nice. The pool is natural with small fish nibbling at your toes. It is definitely worth the detour for the able legged. Make sure to stay for two nights to take in everything. Enjoy the THOUSANDS of flamingos, and definitely go to the nearby waterfalls and take a nice and cooling swim.

I had the pleasure of staying at Lake Natron Camp during my trip to Tanzania, and I have to say it was an amazing experience. The location, near Lake Natron, was mesmerizing and the staff at the camp were incredibly friendly and helpful.

Our local day guide, Lemburis, deserves a special mention. He took us on a guided tour to the lake, the waterfall, and the footprints, and his knowledge and openness made the experience truly unforgettable. He was very knowledgeable about the nature, animals, and environment of Lake Natron. And thanks to Lemburis, we learned a lot about the Maasai culture and way of life.

Overall, the staff at Lake Natron Camp went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable. I wish them all the best and would highly recommend this camp to anyone looking for an authentic Tanzanian experience.

Epic. What a fantastic place to visit, with so much to do. With everything from bathing in hot springs to trekking through canyons, climbing waterfalls, waking up to zebras outside your tent.

Lake Natron camp is a really nice place and I would highly recommend this place. BUT we were really very much disappointed with the entire experience here by lake Natron. After a long drive we came in the evening and wanted to go for a walk to the waterfall. Just my partner and I. We are experienced hikers and we always have good hiking maps downloaded. But 20 minutes walk to the waterfall was a problem because we were followed by the local guide and we were forced to get his services which we did not want. He just wanted to get money out of us. The next morning we got up at 5 am to watch the sunrise by lake Natron. The same local guide followed us all morning and was forcing us to get a guide (to pay him money). He was really REALLY ANNOYING!!!!!! We did not want his services. Lake Natron is just 10 minutes walk to see the flamengoes. You can easily do it on your own if you prefer the privacy which we like. He threatened us and told us he will call the police. He also said we will be attacked by local people if we do not give them money. We were shocked and afraid of your lives because everybody carries a machete there. We literally spent in the park 10 hours including 7 hours of sleep and wanted to do 2 short 20 minute walks (to the waterfall and the lake). The entrance fee in the park was more than $200 which is not cheap for less than 24 hour visit. The entire situation was very stressful. We decided to go back to the entrance gate and asked for security. We felt unsafe. The government paid park ranger was very helpful and send them away. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO PAY ANY SERVICES BY LOCAL TOURISM COMPANY AT THIS SPECIFIC PLACE. (LAKE NATRON). I have been living in Tanzania for more than a year volunteering and supporting local people but this was a really threatening experience. It was very sad.

We were booked for 4 nights from 8 to 12 June 2022 but had to leave after 1 night; the camp is not properly cleaned and maintained.
The tents are dirty, carpets are worn, the water running to a trickle.
The waterless and composting toilets were a stinking stench.
We would have expected a clean tent for a 4 night stay !
I almost got bit by a big centipede when walking inside the tent.
The place by the river where one is expected to relax and have your feet cleaned by small tibia fish is completely run down. Cushions are worn out and there is layer of sticky alkaline salts on all the mattresses and chairs.
The food served is very basic and the morning breakfast fruit were not clean.
I can only qualify this camp as a dump.
This camp was part of safari trip I organised from my wife's birthday.
I felt so embarrassed for her that I would have left immediately so I had been able to!
Unless, you are used to rough camping, stay away from this camp. Until it is completely overhauled.

Unglaublich schöne Lage, mitten in der Natur, die Zebras kamen in der Nacht in unmittelbare Nähe des Zelts. Der natürliche Pool bietet eine willkommene Abkühlung.
Das Essen war gut, teilweise nicht ganz so warm.

We had a wonderfull time here, and saw many flamingos, zebras and other wildlife . The staff was very friendly und helpful. We want to especially thank Lembris who was also our guide to Mt. Lengai and made sure we didn't lack anything.

Rustic but what you might expect from a tented camp in the middle of nowhere. Cool swimming pool (freshwater pond) with little fish gently nibbling feet, short walk to flamingos at the lake, very good food

We were booked in the wrong Tented Camp and arrived without reservation. Staff was very friendly and improvised and we had a wonderful stay. They have no means of paying by credit card, the stay had to be pre paid. But with the help of their management we found a way, even on a weekend day. Note the fee is inclusive of drinks which makes the per night fee somewhat more affordable.
