At Lemala Ngorongoro, guests can enjoy exciting guided walks with a ranger and the Maasai. For special occasions, Lemala can also organise optional private lunches inside the crater or breakfast with the Maasai on a Tanzania safari vacation package. Birding enthusiasts will find the forest surrounding the camp is a rich resource for forest dwelling species.

Lemala Ngorongoro works closely with the local Maasai community who often provide a talk on the Ngorongoro Conservation Area or the Maasai community itself. Lemala guests enjoy the opportunity to interact with the Maasai on a Tanzania safari vacation package.

One of the most interesting attractions in the area is the Olduvai Gorge, where an old river has carved away the rock to expose layers of volcanic soil. Ancient hominid remains were found here by Dr Louis and Mary Leakey. There is now a visitor centre and a small museum with fascinating discoveries including a giant giraffe - it is hard to believe that they were once even taller!
