LAKE NATRON

Complete with Maasai guides from Lake Natron who are native to the area and will tour us around.The Maasai that reside in this area serve as the guides, and the community manages this area.
Furthermore, unlike in national parks, the money collected at the entry of Lake Natron goes directly to the local community rather than the Tanzanian State.We’ll also go to some natural ponds and the Ngare Sero waterfall.
