Amazing tents, staff and views 😍 stayed with these guys on my 3 day safari tour and did not disappoint. Mid range but seems high end to me, the tents were amazingly spacious with the comfiest beds and even a hot water bottle put in at night as it got cooler. The staff were very warm and welcoming, with some entertainment of local culture from the Masai. The food was delicious and so much to choose from, I had the most welcomed and wonderful stay with them.

We had a wonderful experience at Embalakai Authentic Camps - Ngorongoro. From the moment we arrived, the team provided excellent service, warm hospitality, and great attention to detail. The camp is beautifully set in nature, offering an authentic safari atmosphere while still being very comfortable for our guests. The tents were clean, well-prepared, and the food was fresh and delicious.
