Kirurumu Tented Lodge | Lake Manyara with Tanzania Odyssey

The lodge has an excellent view of the Great Rift Valley from many of the rooms and the bar area. We think this is a good option for those who are lovers of a great view and a slightly bigger lodge style.

Kirurumu Manyara Lodge

Kirurumu Camp is located about a 30 minute drive from Manyara airstrip, and two hours from Arusha. The site consists of 27 permanent tented rooms all with wooden decked balconies and most of which overlook the spectacular view which the bar also boasts.

Hoopoe Safaris owns the lodge, and so you can be certain that by going through this highly respected company you are benefitting community based responsible tourism. Because the location is outside of the National Park, Kirurumu can offer botanical walks with the hugely knowledgeable Siyanga and Maggie who will teach you about the medicinal uses of plants from the surrounding trees. You can also hire bikes and explore everything the local town has to offer.

As well as guide expertise, the camp offers a good customer service and dining experience. The dining area sits up to 40 guests and is wooden and breezy. The whole camp feels perfectly at home in its environment with the use of natural materials and subtle bushy walkways – a feeling which is complimented by the sound of many different bird species bathing in the waterholes which surround the dining area.
