Ngorogoro crater is a gorgeous park with a unique feel all of its own due to its higher altitude and location at the bottom of a crater (technically a caldera - collapsed volcano). There were lots of wildlife everywhere in a relatively concentrated area. We saw a few lions, lots of buffalo, hippos, wildebeasts, zebras and birds. The downside is the park was much more crowded with safari vehicles than any other park we visited. There were at least 30 jeeps watching the lions we saw with us which is nothing like the relative privacy we experienced in the Serengheti or Tarangire where there were rarely more than 3 or 4 jeeps around at any time and often we were the only jeep viewing animals we came across.

This feels like the setting of a Disney movie, lush green views, incredible example of nature and evolution. There is an abundance of wildlife here and we had some amazing lion sightings - a whole pride from a distance.

A bit too commercial with too many safari tour vehicles.

Not my favorite place, reeeeeally cold, but there we saw hundred of animals all together reaching a small lake to drink and it was again a spiritual experience, seeing life itself all coming together to sustain itself.

Great place to visit which a large array of animals and habitats in one place. The rhinos managed to allude us on 3 visits (expect for a sighting a very long distance away) and we did see a serval on the recent visit.
