Many of Tarangire’s larger residents follow the rains to greener pastures between November and June. Wildebeest and zebras join elephants, buffalo, and giraffes to form a wildlife migration second only to the Serengeti/Maasai Mara phenomenon
There are large populations of impala, giraffe, eland, and buffalo. Lion pride is common throughout Tarangire in terms of predators, as are leopards and spotted hyenas.

Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast, you will depart for the amazing Ngorongoro Conservation Area. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Ngorongoro Crater has formed 2-3 million years ago when a volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself. With its 2,000-foot-high walls, very few animals migrate in and out of the crater – providing it with one of the highest concentrations of wild animals of
any African national park.
Today you will enjoy your first game drive before stopping for a picnic lunch. Expect to see lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, hippos, flamingos, jackals, rhinos, antelopes, and many rare birds you might even see the ‘Big Five’ in one day!
After lunch, you will continue with an afternoon game drive exploring more of this small but beautiful National Park. At 6pm, you will be taken to your lodge for an unforgettable overnight stay in the Ngorongoro Crater.
