Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha

After an early breakfast, we will descend over 600 meters onto the crater floor for a half day game drive. Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro Crater supports a wide variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park is its dense predator population, including lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the elusive leopards, which sometimes require a trained eye to spot. Compared to other parks, Ngorongoro is the only park where you can easily see black rhinos. We will have lunch at a picnic site. After lunch, we ascend the crater in the afternoon and drive back to Arusha for your drop off in the city or airport.
