Ndutu Lodge has a great location in the southern short-grass plains of the Serengeti, beside a small lake set in beautiful acacia woodland, with the mighty backdrop of the ngorongoro crater highlands. The lodge is quite atmospheric, having retained the character of an old hunting camp; the accommodation is somewhat barrack-like, consisting of unimaginative semi-detached bungalows strung out in a row. the lodge nestles unobtrusively under a canopy of giant acacias overlooking the soda lake. The lodge offers a superb base in which to explore the range of habitats that lie within easy reach, this include swamps, woodlands, soda lakes and the world famous serengeti short grass plains. Ndutu Safari Lodge has been a favorite with professional wildlife photographers and film-makers for the past four decades, because it simply one of the places to watch wildlife.
