After breakfast, you’ll drive up to the Crater Highlands, making a stop at the rim to take in the breathtaking view of the Ngorongoro Crater. From January to April, the park witnesses the calving season, as wildebeest, plains zebra, and Thomson’s gazelle give birth to their young. This abundance of prey attracts large predators, including lions, cheetahs, and hyenas, while the migrating herds move throughout the park. The area is also home to a wide range of smaller animals such as rock hyrax, bat-eared foxes, mongooses, honey badgers, jackals, monkeys, baboons, and African hares. Additionally, more than 500 bird species inhabit the region. After this thrilling game drive, you’ll return to camp for dinner and your overnight stay.
