Serengeti National Park to Ngorongoro Crater
You will have an early morning breakfast at your camp and check out to start your drive toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Since the main goal today is to reach the Ngorongoro Crater early and maximize your time there, game viewing through the Serengeti will be done en route as you make your way straight to Naabi Hill Gate to complete park exit formalities.
Once you pass the gate, you will proceed to the Ngorongoro Crater rim and descend 600 meters down onto the crater floor for a game drive. The crater is among the best wonders in Tanzania to spot all the Big Five—lions, elephants, leopards, buffaloes, and the endangered black rhino—along with herds of wildebeests, zebras, and hyenas. You will break for a packed lunch at a designated picnic spot by the hippo pool before continuing your afternoon drive. In the late afternoon, you will ascend the crater walls and drive to your lodge in Karatu for dinner and your overnight stay.
