Ngorongoro Crater Game drive

After breakfast, set out for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and descend into the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater for a full day of unforgettable game viewing. Known as the largest unbroken volcanic caldera on Earth, this natural wonder is home to over 25,000 animals and offers one of the best chances in East Africa to spot the Big Five lion, leopard, rhino, elephant, and buffalo all in one place.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site often called the Eighth Wonder of the World, Ngorongoro showcases diverse landscapes, from mountain forests and grasslands to lakes and swamps. Enjoy a hot lunch at a scenic picnic spot before ascending the crater rim in the afternoon.

Continue your journey toward the Ndutu region, part of the Ngorongoro ecosystem that connects to the southern Serengeti. Rich in both wildlife and history, Ndutu is where a 400,000-year-old human skull was discovered in 1973. Arrive at your lodge by evening for dinner and an overnight stay surrounded by nature’s tranquility.
