We stayed here for two nights in 2007, sorry for the late review, but from the looks of it on tripadvisor, things haven't changed too much! The tents were comfortable, the food was homey and fresh (the family that owns and runs this place also has a working farm), and the location was peaceful an idyllic. The next morning we... More

My wife and I spent 2 days at this camp on the shore of Lake Eyasi. The camp is small, with 5 comfortable tents with en suite bathrooms. The owners are much in evidence assuring a high level of service. Highlight was the morning spent with Hadzi Bushmen, primitive hunter/gatherers, as they raced through the forest with their dogs and... More

More than any other place we stayed during our time in Tanzania, Kisima Ngeda exceeded expectations. We would go back in a heartbeat -- and intend to! The setting is absolutely beautiful and lush. The tent cabins are maintained in excellent condition. The staff are top-notch and the owners are some of the friendliest, most well-informed you would want to... More

The hospitality, the food, the service and the general ambiance were unsurpassed in our month long Tanzania experience. The owners were welcoming and attentive to every details (tea and/or coffee delivered to your tent in the morning?... More

An oasis in Tanzania. This tented camp is wonderful, the staff are great, the food is fantastic and nothing is to much trouble. A fire at night, the tree house and walks along the lake were totally peaceful. We climbed the hill behind the camp and were escorted by two staff who insisted on carrying the cool box with glasses... More

I can't agree more. This was the most perfect accomodation of our group tour safari. The owner couple couldn't have been more helpful or informative. The meals were set but hands down the best of our trip. Fresh, flavourful, unique ... what else could one ask for. The setting was quiet and peaceful. We walked down to the lake and... More

Beautiful spot right on Lake Eyasi. We were greeted upon arrival and made to feel extremely welcome with a short tour of the camp to show us the best place to watch the sunset and how to cross the glorious pool to get down to the lake. The rooms are designed to be open and spacious yet elegant with attention... More

Beautiful tented camp right next to the lake. Very private and peaceful. Nicely decorated inside out. Amazing sunset over the water. Really relaxing. The owner couple are super nice and helpful and trying their best to make sure everything as perfect as possible. Staff are well-trained and friendly. The only thing we got annoyed is all the bugs and flies... More

A good place to daydream. I stayed here 2 nights at the end of a long, at-times arduous trek through Tanazania's Northern Circuit. I was slowly recovering, too, from the debilitating effects of a bad, persistent cold (courtesy of my KLM seatmate on the flight down to Africa - thank you, whoever you were, for being so considerate as to...
