Kirurumu Tented Lodge - luxury camp at Lake Manyara
 
 
Kirurumu Tented Lodge is a luxury tented lodge built upon the Gregorian Escarpment of the Great Rift Valley. Set in this stunning location, it overlooks a spectacular panorama across Lake Manyara to Mount Losimongori and miles of seemingly untouched Africa. An idyllic resting place welcomes the Safari weary traveler to an informal private and relaxing retreat.

Accommodation is in large walk-in tents, built under thatched structures with good-sized wooden verandas to the front. There are some new tents being built at the moment, which promise to be excellent, with breathtaking locations, set into the edge of the rift, and with staggering views into the Kirurumu river gorge.

This is a well-run camp with an unpretentious feel and great place to stay en route between Tarangire or Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro or the Serengeti. As well as providing a place to stay between Manyara and Serengeti, Kirurumu offers a wide range of activities, which aren't available in national parks and that in themselves make this a place worth staying at. Cycling on mountain bikes down to the eastern edge of Lake Manyara and walks from camp can easily be arranged.
