Ngorongoro crater is very scenic but our wildlife sighting was much better in Tarangire as well as Serengeti. We saw rhinos from very far since there appears to be some research going with the rhinos or perhaps there has been poaching.

An amazing wonder of Africa, you should see it for yourself! Lions and hyenas are very common, but seeing the black rhino is not guaranteed. There is no leopard and cheetah in the crater.
The scenery is what makes this probably the best park in the Northern circuit, and the abundance of water that supports great numbers of herbivores.

Beautiful location.
A lot of animals, they don't seem to care for cars and tourists with cameras.
We have seen many three lion families, an elephant, rhino and many more.
A lot of safari cars there.

See most all the animals in one place - although kind of feels like cheating after Serengeti.

We did not see all the big-5 but are happy with what we saw. Very scenic and the whole place with its unpaved roads has been kept as pristine as possible. Tanzania has done a superb job in maintaining these national treasures.

We saw plenty of wildlife but preferred the openness of the Serengeti

This sanctuary of wildlife is untouched my much of modern man's hands. You can experience natural Africa as it has existed for centuries. It is quiet, serene, a true window on the African circle of life. No shops, no people, no footprints. Just wildlife like it is without us intruding. Even the very early drive in to the crater took us through 20 minutes of mist and fog, to emerge in this magical cauldron. The images live in my mind still …

Early arrival in the crater allowed us to see and photograph lions attempting to bring down a Cape buffalo. The buff escaped when his herd came back to help out.
