Kirurumu Manyara Lodge

Kirurumu Manyara Lodge (formerly Kirurumu Tented Lodge) is a simple but comfortable property which is often used as a base from which to explore both Lake Manyara National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater with a guide. It has a spectacular location right on the edge of the escarpment of the Great Rift Valley, with picturesque views back across Lake Manyara.

Our view of Kirurumu Manyara Lodge

Kirurumu Manyara Lodge is comfortable, friendly and unpretentious: simplicity done well. When we were last there in May 2011, the lodge seemed to function well and the staff were available to answer any questions. It may not be inspiring but it's a relatively economical place to stay, and a good base to visit either Lake Manyara or Ngorongoro. The best thing about Kirurumu are undoubtedly the mesmerising views from the bar – which are simply amazing; it is worth staying here for these alone.
