Overview

Ngorongoro Crater is part of a vast network of interconnected ecosystems, including the crater highlands, expansive plains, bush, and woodland. Covering approximately 8,300 square kilometers, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area is also home to the famous Olduvai Gorge, an important archaeological site where numerous fossils have been discovered.

Known as one of Africa’s top wildlife-viewing destinations, Ngorongoro Crater is about 20 kilometers wide, making it one of the largest calderas in the world. Inside its walls, you’ll find diverse landscapes such as grasslands, swamps, forests, salt pans, and a freshwater lake. The crater is teeming with wildlife, including rhinos, lions, elephants, buffalo, wildebeest, Thomson’s gazelles, zebras, reedbucks, and more.

Tour Itinerary

Pick you from your hotel or home in Moshi/Arusha at 6:00 am after breakfast and drive to Ngorongoro Conservation Authority Area. Descend 600m into this magnificent crater for a full-day game drive. The Ngorongoro Crater is one of the most densely crowded African wildlife areas in the world and is home to an estimated 30,000 animals including some of Tanzania’s last remaining black rhino. Supported by a year round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro Conservation supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park is its huge population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and the ever-elusive leopard. You will enjoy a picnic lunch on the crater floor at Ngoitokitoki swamp. Evening drive back to Arusha/Moshi and drop off at the hotel or home where the tour ends.
