About

Karatu

Karatu is a lush highland town nestled between Lake Manyara and the Ngorongoro Crater, sitting at an altitude of roughly 1,400 metres. Often called the 'Garden of Eden' of Tanzania, the area is characterised by fertile red soils, coffee and wheat plantations, and a cool, temperate climate that stands in striking contrast to the surrounding savannah. Karatu is a natural overnight base between Manyara and Ngorongoro, and its proximity to Iraqw and Datoga villages makes it an excellent base for cultural excursions.
