Giraffe on Plain near Malambo Village, Arusha Region

Malambo is a village in northern Tanzania, located near the Sanjan River, east of the Serengeti, west of Lake Natron, and north of Ngorongoro, in a picturesque but remote region. It is on the western edge of the Eastern Rift Valley, bordered by mountains on the west and a vast plain on the east.

Malambo has served as home for many Maasai, and a rest stop for many more who pass through the region. It boasts a school, a medical clinic, a maternity clinic, and a small airstrip, though the village is still considered remote and impoverished. Because it is close to areas that are popular tourist safari attractions, visitors occasionally pass through.
