Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha

After breakfast, you will drive to the cooler regions of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. When you first see the Ngorongoro Crater, it looks like a forgotten world. The steep volcanic walls, sweeping savannahs, pockets of acacia woodland, and glistening lakes and swamps conceal a pristine wilderness. The crater was formed when a giant volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself two to three million years ago. This 260km² crater is famous for its geological delights and for being a natural reserve home to some of the densest large mammal populations on the African continent. After you descend into the crater, you quickly find yourself amongst large numbers of wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, and more than 500 bird species. The crater provides the best chance of seeing the endangered black rhino.
