The manager was friendly as well as other staff. They are very accommodating. When I contacted the manager to inform them that I could not arrive early as we were stuck at Naabi gate, he took the initiative to offer to prepare dinner for my party. They surely did and it was very good dinner. The next day, since I was going to the crater, they took care of my luggages. They are very flexible and very understanding. I surely would recommend them.

    Thank you, Anita and Ernest, for the warm hospitality and genuine welcome at the lodge. Nestled amidst trees and flowers, the cozy hut provided a clean and comfortable stay, complete with a thoughtful touch like a warm water bottle in the evening. The delicious meals, presented with excellence, and the attentive staff added to the overall charm. The diverse range of activities, from visiting a local school to the awe-inspiring day safari in Serengeti, made my stay memorable. Looking forward to returning soon.

    The place is a pretty upscale tent camp (e.g. nice shower), no complaints about the food. And the pool was a nice touch. It is a good choice for proximity to Ngorongoro Crater, which has become so popular that you might encounter heavy traffic regardless of where you are (unless you really pay the extra cash to stay in one of the lodges within the conservation area). We were there in October, and the total trip, from lodge to entering the area (including paperwork at the gate) was about an hour. Overall a very good choice, no regrets.

    We completely fell in love with this lodge and its hosts. Our safari was organized at the very last moment, and only thanks to the Foresight lodge did it happen. They booked a very experienced guide for us (Godi N.). We were recommended choosing the right part of Serengeti - and thus we managed to see migration, lions, cheetahs, giraffes, rhinos, hippos and 1000s of wildebeests and zebras. Furthermore, the food was always great.

    We had a magical stay at the Foresight Eco Lodge. The lodge is located up in the hills surrounded by nature, with a nice fireplace to relax and watch the sunset. Our room was spacious, clean and had an amazing view. The whole team was very friendly and always helpful. Anita, one of the managing partners, organized us a great safari experience with an experienced guide and driver. I highly recommend staying there.

    The team is just amazing! All are friendly and welcoming. The whole lodge incl. the bungalows is very nice. You recognize lots of details made with love. The food is delicious. We had a amazing Safari tour with Ernest in the Ngorongoro crater, his eagle eyes for spotting animals are unbelievable! We would have loved to stay longer!

    The staff was very friendly and went above and beyond in service! Food was abundant and well prepared by the chef. The tents are high quality, the bed is very comfortable, and the bathroom is well equipped. Wifi connection good. The view to the right is pleasant. The price per night is somewhat high- but still very reasonable compared to Lodges in the National Parks.
