Respectful cultural encounters with the Hadzabe and Datoga.
A seasonal soda lake south-west of the Ngorongoro highlands, home to the Hadzabe — one of Africa's last hunter-gatherer communities — and Datoga pastoralists.
We arrange Hadzabe visits through local interpreters with fees paid to the community. Visits start before dawn and involve walking in the bush.
We ask guests to treat the experience as a meeting, not a show: ask before photographing and follow your guide's lead.
5 daysTarangire, Hadzabe and Datoga communities and the crater
Wildlife and people: Tarangire and the Ngorongoro Crater with a day at Lake Eyasi, all from one Karatu lodge.
6 daysParks, people and the southern Serengeti plains
Combines a cultural day at Lake Eyasi with a night in the Ndutu area and the Ngorongoro Crater.
11 daysThree Serengeti nights, Eyasi and the north coast
Three nights in the central Serengeti, a crater-rim camp, Lake Eyasi and three beach nights at Nungwi.
It can be when visits are small, arranged with the community, fairly paid and respectful. That is how we arrange them, and we keep groups small.
