Twiga Lodge & Campsite is a family-owned lodge and campsite in the market village of Mto wa Mbu, at the foot of the Rift Valley escarpment and close to the Lake Manyara National Park gate. It opened in 1994 as a campsite and has grown to more than 40 rooms, but its extensive camping ground still takes over 200 campers. You also get a swimming pool beside a shady grove of trees, a large restaurant and bar, and a small supermarket.
