Now over 19km wide, the Ngorongoro Crater is filled with significant areas of acacia forest, hippo-filled swamps, and open grasslands. These habitats contain over 30,000 animals, including elephants, warthogs, flamingos, magnificent birdlife, the rare black rhinoceros, and all predatory cats.

Day 5

Lodge To Lake Eyasi To Arusha

Lodge To Lake Eyasi To Arusha

The Hadza, or “Hadzabe tribe” is an indigenous ethnic group in north-central Tanzania, living around Lake Eyasi in the central Rift Valley and in the neighboring Serengeti Plateau. This cultural experience is one of the most sensitive cultural encounters available in the world today. The essence of Hadzabe culture can be summed up in one word: Harmony. They live in harmony with each other, nature, and themselves, it is almost impossible to spend time with traditional hunter-gatherer tribes and not affect the way they live. But the Hadzabe in Northern Tanzania live today as they have lived for thousands of years: hunting for game with bows and arrows, gathering honey from the beautiful African baobab trees, and digging for roots and tubers from deep within the arid ground of the acacia bushland. And this will bring a deep sensitivity to your African culture. After having the lessons, you will depart back to Arusha.
