The Story
The Ngorongoro Crater is a world unto itself — a collapsed volcano whose walls shelter nearly every species of East African plains wildlife in one astonishing bowl. This full-day trip takes you from the misty rim down onto the crater floor, where game viewing is as concentrated and reliable as anywhere on earth.
You'll search for the crater's resident black rhino, watch lion prides at rest, and picnic beside a hippo pool as flamingos shimmer on the soda lake. A perfect add-on, or a complete day of wonder in its own right.
