    The Sonjo are a Bantu-speaking community of about 30,000 people living in northern Tanzania’s Ngorongoro District, roughly 30–40 miles west of Lake Natron. Having migrated from Central Africa over 4,000 years ago, the Sonjo settled in this fertile region, where their agricultural lifestyle could thrive.

After lunch, visit the Datoga tribe, a pastoralist community similar to the Maasai but also renowned for their silversmithing skills. The Datoga craft iron tools such as knife and spear tips, which they trade with the Hadzabe for honey and fruits. Believed to have migrated from the Horn of Africa around 3,000 years ago, the Datoga are easily recognized by their reddish-brown attire that blends with the soil, traditional beadwork, and the women’s distinctive circular facial scarification patterns symbolizing beauty. Enjoy an immersive cultural experience as you visit their homesteads and learn about their way of life. Later, return to your camp for dinner and overnight.
