Tanzania :: Ngorongoro Crater Lodge, Northern Tanzania

Ngorongoro Crater Lodge is committed to CC Africa’s core principle: Care of the Land, Care of the Wildlife, Care of the people. CC Africa’s focus: Community equity, income generation, education and health care are a primary concern.

In consultation with community organisations such as the Africa Foundation – originally founded by CC Africa, now a not-for-profit rural development organisation – Ngorongoro Crater Lodge has contributed significantly towards improving the prosperity and living conditions of the Maasai community.

About 42 000 Maasai pastoralists inhabit the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, tending their herds of cattle, sheep and goats, and living in peaceful co-existence with the wildlife. Grazing of livestock on the Crater floor is permitted, offering a glimpse of bygone Africa.
