Ngorongoro Crater Game drive

After breakfast, depart for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and descend into the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater for a full day of remarkable game viewing. As the world’s largest unbroken volcanic caldera, this natural wonder is home to over 25,000 animals, offering one of Africa’s best opportunities to spot the Big Five lion, leopard, rhino, elephant, and buffalo all within a single destination.
A UNESCO World Heritage Site and often referred to as the Eighth Wonder of the World, Ngorongoro dazzles with its dramatic landscapes of forests, open plains, lakes, and swamps. Enjoy a hot lunch at a scenic picnic site before ascending the crater rim in the afternoon.
Your journey continues to the Ndutu region, part of the Ngorongoro ecosystem that merges into the southern Serengeti. Steeped in wildlife and history, Ndutu is also the site where a 400,000-year-old human skull was discovered in 1973. Arrive at your lodge by evening for dinner and an overnight stay amid the peaceful wilderness.
