Gibb's Farm is not only a smart destination for visiting safari guests, but also a working organic coffee, fruit and vegetable plantation. Originally built in 1929, the farm has been extending a warm welcome to guests for the past forty years.

It comprises 18 en-suite cottages, each equipped with fireplace, bathtub and veranda. Sympathetic refurbishment has continued to keep the main building up to date while retaining the farmhouse's original character.

Encircled by a historic English garden, the main building is where guests will find the restaurant, lounge and bar. The spectacular views from the veranda reach much further than the farm's plantation.

Gibb's Farm covers 3200 m2 of farmland in the Ngorongoro Highlands near Karatu. Its location makes it the ideal base from which to visit the Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara National Park.

Guests are welcome to visit the actual farm, where children can milk cows and plant plants. Experience the art of coffee roasting or discover the surroundings of Gibb's Farm by bicycle or on foot. Longer, guided walks in the Ngorongoro Forest and a visit to a school or local family at Tlomoa Village are also on offer.

Accompanied by a member of staff, joggers may wish to run along the forest paths and through the village. Attention: The farm is situated 1'800 m above sea level.
