Lake Manyara Green Camp
A sustainable stylish Safari Camp by Wayo Africa in the remotest corner of Lake manyara national park.
This breathtaking camp is perched on the edge of a dry river bed, just below the crashing cascades of the Endabash Waterfall. Set away from game drive routes, it offers a quiet area to spend the night in the park. It is to enjoy early morning and nighttime drives away from the hordes of daytrippers. With eight tents each having its own Star-Gazing-Beds, it serves as an excellent base for exploring Lake Manyara’s wilderness and the diverse range of activities available.
Lake Manyara Green Camp, the sibling property of Serengeti Green Camp, offers simple yet unexpectedly comfortable accommodations in a secluded setting. These camps, as the name implies, have been intended to be as green as possible, and the management is dedicated to minimizing the ecological footprint.
Location of Manyara Green Camp
Manyara Green Camp is located in a remote southern part within Lake Manyara National Park, renowned for its tree-climbing lions and hundreds of flamingos that frequent the lake. But, most importantly, because the camp is located directly on the banks of the Endabash River, animals travels long distances to drink there. At dry seasons of the year, this river is the only water supply in the neighboring region, attracting thousands of animals. Due to its location inside the park and in the remotest possible spot, your vehicle will be one of the first on safari early in the morning, and you will be able to watch sunsets over the park after the day-trippers have left.
Rooms in Manyara Green Camp
There are eight large recently renovated tents with roof stargazing choices, each with adjoining facilities. Designed on decks, the layout offers visitors a higher view and firm underfoot wooden flooring. Every tent gains from a king-sized bed that may be configured as a twin as necessary. All of the architecture and interior design have been locally created in line with our dedication to empower local people. The roof is gauze; the stars are revealed via an automatic retractable mechanism; most of the wooden elements have been taken from our former camps.
Wildlife seen at Manyara Green Camp
Genet and lesser and greater bushbabies are regular in the camp. You might see the resident leopard roaming nearby. Elephants are frequented the camp. Other animals can also be seen in the vicinity and mostly approaching the riverbed. The camp is certainly not fenced and you are not allowed to go out of your tent even in broad daylight due to dense foliage and elephant’s presence.
Food and Dining in Manyara Green Camp
The camp chef is responsible for preparing all of the meals as well as serving them in either a plated or buffet format. All of the meals are hearty and consist of three courses, and they are served in common dining areas. However, if you like, you can also request private dining arrangements. Usually comprising fresh fruit, cereals, toast, pancakes and syrup, breakfasts also include eggs cooked to order. Usually consumed alfresco under the stars, dinner is a three-course feast.
Most drinks are covered, except pricey wines and spirits. Small, modest forest camp with limited drink selection. Champagne and specialty spirits must be requested and paid for in advance to us.
Activities in Manyara Green Camp
The camp presents treetop walks inside the park, paddle safaris, and night wildlife drives. On Manyara’s twisting roads, lightweight Suzuki safari vehicles perform effectively. They are also calmer so you may really appreciate this amazing park.

Whether they are a leisurely amble around the lake side or a full day severe trip into the Rift Valley, walks can also be planned.
