Visit Hadzabe Bushmen in Ngorongoro Crater
About one hour’s drive southwest of Karatu (on the Outskirts of the Ngorongoro Crater), lies Lake Eyasi one of the rift valley lakes that are situated in Northern Tanzania which is home to one of Tanzania’s most extraordinary cultures, this shallow endorheic Salt Lake on the floor of the Great Rift Valley at the base of the Serengeti Plateau, just south of the Serengeti National Park and immediately southwest of the Ngorongoro Crater in the Crater Highlands of Tanzania.
History
When the Maasai arrived in the Serengeti area about 300 years ago, they drove out the Hadzabe Tribe and other Bushmen to remote areas of the park. Less than 2000 of these Bushmen still live in the area. Unlike the Maasai who have embraced modern ways of living, the Hadzabe Bushmen remain primitive and still live off hunting and gathering. A tour of their remote region will allow you to experience their culture and secret ways of living.
What to expect
you to witness their unchanged, traditional way of life and how they live in harmony with the earth. Guided by one of our rangers, guests have the chance to engage with the locals and learn all about their time-honoured hunting techniques, survival skills, food preparation and cultural norms. In many ways, it is a step back in time but it is also an undeniably authentic cultural journey into rural Tanzania that reveals the untold world of these charismatic people.
