It is one of the few places where the rare black rhino can be observed in their natural setting. As very few animals migrate in and out of the crater with its 2000 ft. high walls, you can expect to see lion, elephant, zebra, hippo, flamingo, jackal, rhino, antelope, many birds and other species. With a bit of luck the ‘Big Five’ can be spotted during one game drive. Later in the day, you will return to Arusha for your travels home. This is where your safari will end.
