This collapsed volcano is one of Tanzania’s most visited destinations, and it’s certainly not hard to see why.

It is brimming with elephants, lions, buffaloes, hippos and even the rare black rhino. Lunch is to be enjoyed at the picnic site. In the late afternoon, we drive to Serengeti National Park.
