Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha

Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha

The Ngorongoro Crater is renowned as one of Tanzania's premier wildlife destinations, celebrated for its stunning landscapes and high visibility of wildlife. After an early breakfast at 6:00 a.m., we’ll head to the Ngorongoro viewpoint to take in the breathtaking panorama—an experience that is sure to leave you in awe.

We will then descend into the crater, embarking on a journey to spot the elusive black rhinos, which are among the hardest to find. The crater's self-contained ecosystem means that its wildlife does not need to migrate, providing an excellent chance to see a wide range of animals in their natural habitat.

Following a delightful lunch, we will continue with a game drive in the crater. Afterward, we will ascend back to the rim and transfer you to your accommodation in Arusha or to the airport, concluding your remarkable adventure.
