Ngorongoro crater

After an early breakfast, you'll descend over 600 meters into the Ngorongoro Crater to witness an incredible array of wildlife. Supported by year-round water and fodder, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area hosts vast herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants.

This stunning park is also known for its dense predator population, including lions, hyenas, jackals, and elusive leopards that require a keen eye to spot. We will visit Lake Magadi, a shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern corner of the crater, home to large flocks of flamingos, hippos, and other water birds.

Late in the afternoon, you'll drive back to Arusha, capping off a day filled with unforgettable wildlife encounters.
