"Ngedere Lodge is nicely situated in Mto wa mbu as an ideal base for Safari game drives to Manyara Lake, Ngorongoro Crater and even the Serengeti National Parks. I had the half board package. Erick cooked great food with a range of pancakes, omlettes, sausages for breakfast and the loads of options on the evening. Numerous local dishes, like Ogali and international greats including pizza and chips, burgers, etc. The rooms were clean with warm showers - great for familes and solo travellers. ...

"We had a wonderful stay at the Stc safari lodge. The rooms are simple, but clean. The food was excellent, mainly from their own farm, with meat and veggie options for lunch and dinner. Very good breakfast too, with delicious watermelon juice. We got a nice tour at the farm by one of the sisters. Thank you all for an unforgettable stay. "
