Ngorongoro Crater Safari

The Ngorongoro Crater is a geological wonder and a wildlife sanctuary unlike anywhere else on Earth. Three million years ago a volcano the size of Kilimanjaro collapsed, creating a 260 km² caldera that now shelters one of the densest concentrations of large mammals on the planet. Permanent water from the crater lake and springs means animals rarely need to leave — making this the most reliable game-viewing location in all of Tanzania. Encounter lion prides sleeping in open grassland, hippo pools surrounded by flamingos, and the endangered black rhino grazing undisturbed on the crater floor. Combine with Tarangire for an exceptional short safari that delivers on every promise.
