About Gibb’s Farm

Gibb’s Farm is located on a beautiful coffee plantation, just outside the Ngorongoro crater and overlooking the ancient Great Rift Valley.

Gibb’s Farm was built by German settlers in the early 20th century. The Gibb family bought the farm in 1948 and have homegrown coffee, fruit and vegetables.

Here you’ll feel a warm feeling of well-being, peace and history.
