Description
Loliondo Camp is in our wonderful Loliondo Concession, which immediately borders the north-eastern boundary of the Serengeti and is close to the south-eastern side of the Masai Mara. This is a place of outstanding natural beauty with a landscape of differing habitats: from sweeping grassy plains to rolling wooded hills, acacia-lined watercourses and dramatic granite kopjes.

The tented accommodation is luxuriously comfortable and spacious with en-suite bathrooms and is, naturally, fully and tastefully furnished. The tents are spread out throughout the kopje area with the dining tent at the base of the main kopje rock. Resident game is plentiful in the area, drawn during the dry seasons by the nearby waterhole and increasing in the spring and (especially) the autumn, when the Migration can be expected to pass through the Concession on its way to/from the Mara area.

Rooms / Facilities
Loliondo’s tents are as follows:
5 double and twin customised safari tents. The largest tent available for safari camping and as used for our classic camping.

Each tent is fully and tastefully furnished with:

	Comfortable, (twin) beds with 6” mattresses, pillows, blankets & sheets.
	Luggage rack, table, safari chairs, mats & soft furnishings in individual style.
	Solar lighting in both the bedroom and enuite toilet and shower room
	Dining room with waiter service

In addition the camp has:

	A locally furnished dining tent for breakfast, lunch and romantic, candle-lit dinners.
	A campfire area.
	Complete privacy.

Activities
Loliondo Camp is a perfect springboard for various differing activities throughout the Concession, many of which are listed overleaf as they take guests away from Loliondo Camp for 1 - 5 days. However, for those who are staying at Loliondo Camp and not partaking of the more adventurous possibilities, the following will ensure a wonderful and memorable stay:

	Day and half day game drives
	Night game drives
	Walking from 1 hours to full days
	Fly camping from 1 to 4 days
	Ethno-botanical guided walks (with local Maasai)
	Cultural interaction with Maasai (limited time and impact visits)
	Especially on family safaris: a chance for children and adolescents to spend time with their Maasai counterparts and learn how young life is lived in Africa.

Location

map

Loliondo Camp is set towards the southern side of our Concession - and facing south - at the base of a granite monolith that shades the camp from the elements and feeds a waterhole frequented by game. As this is a completely private area, it is a superb place to really experience Africa - totally removed from any other tourism. Loliondo camp is easily reached by air and by road, being approximately:

	80 minutes scheduled flight from Arusha (to Kleins), then c.1 hours drive (depending on game).
	75 minutes flight charter from Arusha (to Wasso), then c. 45 minutes drive (depending on game).
	20-minute flight (Kleins) from Seronera.
	3/4 to 1 day’s drive from Ngorongoro (shorter routing: Eastern side of SNP; longer routing: via Seronera & Lobo).
	Half day drive from Seronera.
	45 minutes from Lobo Lodge.
	35 minutes from Klein’s Camp (note that guests from Klein’s are unable to access Loliondo without special permission).

Loliondo camp is therefore an idea end to a northern circuit safari, and with easy charter options can be combined with many other places, such as West Kilimanjaro or even options further south.
