The crater is really very special and a must see on your safari trip. The rest of the area is certainly nice as well, but parts are primarily used for moving up to the Serengeti. Closer to the Serengeti, you really get the bush vibe back.

This is a must see destination! The view of the crater from above allows you to digest all the geological information you will read and that the guide will tell you. It is also a natural zoo, rich with water and vegetation that supports many wildlife.

Regarding wildlife, it´s the most exciting place I´ve ever seen. It´s PACKED with wonderful wildlife. We even saw a lion hunting down a zebra. Downside to this are the crowds of people (cars go in a queue at times, and car-jams may occur if there´s some must-see and the notice runs fast) and exhorbitant entry fees. No chance to camp inside, so you can´t really get a feel of the vibe of the place. Anyway, you cant miss it.

Looking into the crater was out of this world, well worth it, loads of wildlife.

Our tour group did not get to really experience Ngorongoro because on the 1st day we went down into the crater, it was REALLY raining, and none of the animals were visible. When we were coming back from the Serengeti on our way back to Tarangire, we stopped there for a short period of time, but because of time constraints, we weren't able to devote an entire day there.

Amazing place. From the view at the top of the crater through to the bottom of the crater. We saw our first white rhinos here.

No vast herds of animals, but the setting in the crater is unbelievable.
