Our properties are located in the heart of the wilderness, allowing our guests to connect deeply with the environment, while still experiencing supreme comfort and service. Open game-drive vehicles, professional guides, first-class cuisine and year-round game viewing are hallmarks of a Lemala stay. With properties in Arusha, Tarangire, Ngorongoro, the Serengeti and the River Nile, Lemala offers an authentic safari experience throughout the famed Northern Circuit; a naturally splendid region of Tanzania and one of the most celebrated wildlife areas in Africa, as well as in a unique location on the Nile in Uganda.
Tanzania is a wildlife paradise, home to an incredible abundance of animals and immense natural drama. When it comes to wildlife and beautiful landscapes in Africa, Northern Tanzania is the place to head to. It’s a land of superlatives, from the continent’s highest mountain to one of the greatest wildlife spectacles on the planet. Few people forget their first encounter with the Serengeti, home to incomparable wildlife, or the uniqueness of Tarangire’s baobab-and-elephant kingdom, or venturing down into Ngorongoro’s crater, which can feel like returning to earth’s first morning. This is also a journey among the Maasai, the Hadzabe and others whose presence here make this one of Africa’s most stirring and soulful destinations. Uganda is home to incomparable mountain gorillas and to Jinja, the historic source of the mighty Nile River and the adrenaline capital of East Africa.

Lemala Wildwaters Lodges - River Nile, Uganda
Located on roughly six hectares on Kalagala Island, Wildwaters Lodge lies on a unique private island mid-stream within the mighty River Nile in Uganda: around 25km downstream from Jinja in eastern Uganda. It’s in a sublime location and only reached by boat which makes it a very adventurous place to stay. It is uniquely perched on granite rocks with dramatic and exciting rapids roaring all around. Activities on the river for guests in the nearby adventure hub of the Jinja area including heart-pounding white-water rafting or bungee jumping and gentler horse riding or fishing. Additionally, Wildwaters is a perfect platform for viewing some of the more than 1000 bird species that Uganda is so famous for – from turacos and cuckoos to hawks and eagles – and you might also spot giant otters and monitor lizards in the water. After an adventurous day Wildwaters Lodge also offers a relaxing and intimate location for honeymooners and couples looking for some quiet time. Especially for those taking advantage of the spa nestled over this ancient river. The sounds on the mighty Nile are quite hypnotic and calming so Wildwaters offers an experience for all the senses. And for posting on Facebook or Instagram, nothing beats these views. Wildwaters Lodge is open year-round affording guests the opportunity to enjoy this piece of paradise during all seasons. The ten stand-alone elevated timber-floor and super-spacious luxury suites are nestled in the rainforest with amazing river views. Each are linked by raised wooden walkways to the restaurant, bar and library, and feature glass-fronted windows, locally handmade furniture, stylish bathrooms with rain showers, and secluded wooden decks with daybeds and romantic free-standing open-air bathtubs. There are also delicious sunrise breakfasts and candle-lit three-course dinners and a lovely swimming pool cantilevered above the river in the attractive main communal lodge area. 8 standard suites, 1 private plunge pool suite and 1 two bedded suite make up the total compliment of accommodation on the island.

Lemala Ngorongoro Tented Camp - Ngorongoro, Tanzania
Lemala Ngorongoro is intimately set in a delightful ancient acacia forest close to the rim of the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater. As it is located next to the quiet Lemala crater access road on the eastern side, a key advantage of staying at Lemala Ngorongoro is the quick and easy drive down on to the crater floor in the morning; Lemala guests usually have an hour’s head start over others descending via the far busier Seneto crater access road on the western rim. And of course can stay later in the afternoon before returning to camp. As Africa’s game is most active in the early morning and late afternoon this means better wildlife experiences for Lemala guests. Game drives from camp may start as early as 6.15am and guests can be down among Ngorongoro’s abundant wildlife on the floor within 10-15 minutes – crucial for photographers who demand the best light conditions. Escorted walks are also available into the forest and along the crater rim with an armed ranger and Maasai guide. Lemala Ngorongoro Tented Camp has 9 spacious tents that are positioned carefully to provide privacy and with minimal impact on the pristine forest environment. They accommodate two queen-size beds, and as it can get cool on the Ngorongoro Crater rim at night, little luxuries like warm winter-weight duvets, hot water bottles and gas heaters ensure a cosy night’s sleep. The roomy en-suite bathrooms contain a dressing area, flush toilet and a large safari-style shower. The mess tent is beautifully furnished with grand sofas, lamps, bookshelves and corner cabinets in old wood, chests and rugs. In the evening, guests can gather around the campfire to exchange tales of the day’s safari followed by a sumptuous hearty meal. 9 tents furnished with 2 queen-size beds (triples available on request) En-suite bathroom with flush toilet and hot safari-style shower 24-hr solar electricity with a back-up generator Mess tent with adjoining lounge and bar Complimentary internet in the lounge and bar Complimentary laundry (limited services only) Charging facilities for devices in the lounge and bar

Lemala Ewanjan Tented Camp - Serengeti, Tanzania
Lemala Ewanjan is an authentic intimate tented camp set in a secluded part of the game-rich Seronera Valley in Central Serengeti. The Seronera region is an important wildlife transition zone between the southern grasslands and the northern woodlands and is renowned for its year-round game viewing due to its abundance of water in the many rivers, as well as for its large populations of resident big cats. Additionally, between April and June, and again between November and January, this area is crossed by the annual wildebeest migration, which provides always thrilling wildlife drama. We have carefully positioned Lemala Ewanjan right at the end of a blind valley, so other vehicles will not interrupt your view across the plains during the day, and in the evening, you can enjoy uninterrupted sunsets with no electric lights in sight. The 12 en-suite tents are spacious and comfortable, and have an outside deck offering beautiful views over the area. Each tent is fitted with two queen-size beds with warm duvets, a flush toilet, large safari-style shower, plentiful running water, wooden storage cabinets and flooring, 24-hour solar lighting and outside loungers from which to enjoy early morning teas and coffees and refreshing afternoon gin and tonics.

Lemala Mara Ndutu Tented Camp
One authentic mobile tented camp, but in two locations, Lemala Ndutu & Lemala Mara moves north and south with the seasons to ensure guests enjoy ringside seats to the spectacle of the magnificent wildebeest migration year-round. Both are set up in sublime locations offering a high-quality safari experience with excellent guiding. Lemala Ndutu Tented Camp is in the Ndutu region of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area near the border of the Southern Serengeti. This area is classic savannah, characterized by flat grassy plains, and our camp is in one of the finest locations in Ndutu to see the migration between December and March. Tens of thousands of wildebeest, zebra and gazelle usually arrive in December to graze on the newly-watered, highly nutritious short grass plains, and then by February, the main calving season takes place. Predators – especially the big cats – are highly concentrated in the Ndutu area in these months. With 9 tents, Lemala Ndutu is perched on the edge of a permanent marsh and acts as the ultimate amphitheatre to capture the boundless drama that accompanies the migration The 12 tents of Lemala Mara Tented Camp travel north between June and October to set up under large Euclea trees in one of the best game viewing areas of the Northern Serengeti. The exact location varies from year to year. Sometimes we set up camp close to the Mara River, but are always far enough away to remain discreet and not interrupt wildlife behaviour as the wildebeest mass along the steep banks during their frantic crossing on their way north to the Maasai Mara. Here, in this immense remote wilderness, guests can enjoy fabulous landscapes and terrific game viewing with practically no crowds. Resident wildlife numbers are always high, but nothing compared to the dramatic scenes during the migration as tens of thousands of animals gather to then plunge into the crocodile-infested river.

From Plastic Bottles to School Desk
Website http://www.duniadesigns.org/
Our school desk project was born with the opening of Lemala Mpingo Ridge and Lemala Nanyukie when, as a company, we banned the use of plastic bottles in all our properties and replaced them with aluminum water bottles issued to each guest on arrival. The plan was sound, however we failed to factor in the plastic waste that was brought into our camps by companies still providing plastic bottles in their vehicles and lunch boxes. We needed a plan to deal with the plastic bottles that were coming our way for disposal. We worked with Dunia Design to manufacture a recycled plastic bin for each property, one full bin would be enough plastic for Dunia to make a fully recycled school desk. To date we have removed over 100 tons of plastic from Tanzanian parks and produced 175 recycled school desks that have been donated to Chief Lebolo’s School and the Nainokanoka Primary School at Ngorongoro.
Collection bins, also made from recycled plastic by #Dunia Designs a sustainable and socially enterprising company specializing in recycling plastic waste in Arusha – each collecting enough plastic to make one school desk and 2 chairs. 1 BIN takes approximately 375 – 400 1.5 litre bottles, or700+ half litre bottles or 1000 small soda bottles.
For only USD135 per set (1 x desk + 2 chairs) we can all make a difference to rid plastic from our national parks and conservation areas and support local education.
We saved over 300,000 plastic bottles ending up in landfills and used much of our old stock to make plastic school desks for local schools
Reusable Sanitary Pad Project
Sanitary pad poverty is a global problem and especially prevalent in the Maasai communities where sanitary items are simply not available, this in turn leads to poor attendance in school and other female sexual health issues. Our reusable sanitary pad project was born in response to a request from one of our male staff members who thought it brutally unfair that his sisters, and the girls in his community, could not attend school whilst they were menstruating. The project is in its third year and we have to date distributed over 3000 reusable sanitary pads to young Maasai girls in remote schools. The project is funded entirely from the sale of reusable sanitary pad packs in our Lemala curio shops. The packs are produced for us locally in Arusha by an NGO Women’s Group - Upendo Women’s foundation. Guests can purchase the packs for $10 each and at the end of each month they are distributed to girls in the schools with the help of the team and community nurse. The project is hugely successful, more importantly it provides a platform for our friends at - The Pioneer For Women And Youth Transformation (PIWYOT) to provide equally critical education on female sexual health, contraception and other taboo subjects that could not be tackled without the practical exercise of sanitary pad distribution in schools in Maasai communities.
