Fodor's Expert Review Ngare Sero Mountain Lodge Conservancy
Off A23, east of Arusha, Arusha, Arusha, Tanzania Fodor's Choice
Located on the outskirts of a forest, a 1905 farmhouse is now home to this intimate, family-run mountain lodge with converted cottages filled with handmade furniture and public lounging areas that invite you to stay for days. There are numerous activities provided by the lodge—boating on a pristine lake where you can spot some 200 different bird species, nature walks, horse riding, village tours, and an ever changing variety of outside dining areas nestled between lush lawns and jungle growth. The outdoor spa is one of a kind and not to be missed. Believe us when we say that this is a place you'll want to spend more than just a day pre- or post-safari.
