Kisima Ngeda Tented Camp is situated right on the shore of Lake Eyasi. Across from this large seasonal soda lake that stretches away in front of Camp, the Alipi escarpment wall rises two thousand feet up towards the Ngorongoro highlands and the Serengeti plains providing a stunning view. Kisima Ngeda Tented Camp, which consists of seven spacious tents with their own verandas, bathrooms and all the comforts of a lodge, lies amidst a natural palm and acacia forest with a colossal rock outcrop as a backdrop and a natural spring nearby.
The activities offered at Kisima Ngeda Tented Camp include the truly unique experience of following the Hadzabe, the only surviving hunter-gatherer tribe in Tanzania, on their daily hunting and foraging. Men hunt with bows and poisoned arrows while the women bring in a significant percentage of the daily food of the tribe in form of roots dug from the ground, berries and honey. A visit to a family of Wadatoga pastoralists is also an interesting experience. The women are friendly and stunning, with traditional mask-like scarring around the eyes and heavy brass jewelry made by a blacksmith who works with bellows and handmade tools under an acacia tree. The forest and lake shore around the camp are ideal for bird watching, walking, jogging, biking and canoeing. In future we will also be able to offer fly camping trips into the Ngorongoro conservation area and to some nearby hot springs.
