TANZANIA: Asilia To Open The Highlands, Ngorongoro

Asilia Africa is delighted to announce that their newest property, The Highlands, will open in Ngorongoro in March 2016.

The Highlands redefines the Ngorongoro experience. Set high on the slopes of Olmoti volcano, with sweeping views all the way to the Serengeti, you can be at the famous Ngorongoro Crater floor at dawn but still far from any other camp.

The eight luxurious tented suites offer king size beds with large windows so you can feel immersed in the endless views from the comfort of your bed. Wood burning stoves will keep your domed suite warm throughout the night.

The main area has been designed with the classic camp fire experience in mind; even when it is too cold to go outside, sit around a roaring fire at the inside fireplace, the perfect place to unwind at the end of an adventurous day exploring.


From your stylish base at The Highlands you can enjoy the iconic Ngorongoro Crater safari. Ngorongoro is the largest un flooded and unbroken caldera in the world and home to the highest density of lion anywhere in Africa, as well as the other members of the Big 5. From camp you can explore the wild highlands which surround the camp – home to leopard, buffalo and elephant and the Maasai people whose pastoral way of life has remained unchanged for centuries.
