Ngorongoro Conservation Area
7h
For a half-day safari tour, you will descend 600 meters into the crater to see wildlife. The Ngorongoro National Park sustains a diverse range of wildlife, including herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and enormous African elephants, thanks to year-round water and feed. Another significant lure to this scenic refuge is its rich population of predators, which includes lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopard, which can be difficult to spot even with a trained eye. We’ll go to Lake Magadi, a big but shallow alkaline lake in the crater’s southwest corner that is one of the crater’s most prominent features. It is common to witness a huge number of flamingos, hippos, and other aquatic birds here.
After a game drive, we’ll drive up the crater and back to your accommodation in Arusha/Moshi for supper and an overnight stay.
