STAY CONNECTED IN THE BUSH! All lodges now offer Free WIFI Internet
Africa Safari Maasai Boma is a unique accommodation. Not only because of its ideal location, with Kenya's Maasai Mara in the background and situated between Lake Natron in the east, Serengeti National Park in the west and Ngorongoro in the south, making a roundtrip really a roundtrip, but also because of its construction. As the name suggests, the accommodation is inspired by a traditional Maasai boma. Look around and you will understand why; you are in their midst. The round mud houses with thatched roofs are simple and solid, yet comfortable. A spacious bedroom, decorated with traditional Maasai artefacts and beadwork, is furnished with a king-size and a single bed, and an ensuite bathroom equipped with toilet and shower facilities to European standards. The nearby village is called Ololosokwan. Africa Safari Maasai Boma is just 15 minutes away from Serengeti's Klein's Gate. Game drives to the famous river crossing location where the Great Migration takes place, are possible. Meanwhile, the Loliondo Game Controlled Area has also proven to be a hidden treasure in terms of wildlife. The game drives here are of unprecedented quality. Wildlife knows no boundaries!
Together with a TAWA ranger, (night) game drives and bushwalks can be done in this area.
If you are looking for a Safari lodge in Tanzania, you’ve found the right place.

Africa Safari Maasai Boma
Ideally located between Africa Safari Lake Natron (5hrs to the east) and Africa Safari Ikoma (4hrs to the west), Africa Safari Maasai Boma is located only 20 minutes away from Serengeti National Park Klein’s gate.
At nighttime, when you sit around the campfire, the Maasai storyteller will entertain you with all the legends and tales that live amongst the Maasai for hundreds of years.
Africa Safari Maasai Boma is located just outside the National Park, and in the Longido Game Controlled Area. Tawa fees apply in the game controlled area and can be arranged by us.
An additional fee applicable is a Village fee, to support the local community. Ololosokwan’s Village Council has allocated much of its revenue toward education, especially building classrooms employing teachers and sponsoring children to attend secondary school and university.
The Village Council has also used some of its revenue to build a village dispensary, develop several water projects and reinvest in conservation to ensure wildlife populations thrive on Ololosokwan land. This fee is paid through the accommodation.
For visits to the Serengeti National Park, TANAPA entry fees apply. These apply to both persons and vehicles. Agents are to pay these fees electronically online, while for private visitors, Africa Safari Maasai Boma can assist.
