Kisima Ngeda

Top choice in Northern Tanzania


Kisima Ngeda roughly translates as ‘spring surrounded by trees’: there’s a natural spring at the heart of this lakeside property, creating an unexpectedly green and lush oasis of fever trees and doum palms. The seven tents are very comfortable and the cuisine (much of it locally produced, including dairy from the camp's own cows) is excellent. It’s signposted 7.5km from Ghorofani.

There’s basic camping (the only camping on the lakeshore) 2km past the main lodge, with a toilet and shower and the same awesome scenery.
