Enjoy lunch en route at a scenic stopover or local restaurant, then continue winding up through lush montane forests to the Ngorongoro crater rim. Arrive at camp perched high on the rim, taking in stunning views over the 600-metre deep caldera, and spend the evening with an optional walk around the rim (where permitted) or simply relaxing and soaking in the highland atmosphere.

Enjoy a gourmet picnic lunch at the designated hippo pool picnic site on the crater floor, then continue with an afternoon game drive in search of leopards on the crater walls and buffalo herds on the plains.
