Ngorongoro Crater

We will wake up early and have breakfast between 6:00 and 6:30 in the morning. After that, we will drive down into the Ngorongoro Crater. On the way, we’ll stop for about 10 to 15 minutes at a viewpoint to enjoy the amazing views and take some photos. Your guide will also share a short story about how the crater was formed.

We will have lunch at the Hippo Pool picnic site, a small pond in the southern part of the crater. You can get out of the car here and enjoy your meal. The pool is home to many hippos, and sometimes you might see other animals coming to drink water.

Ngorongoro is a World Heritage Site because of its rich wildlife. It is the only crater in the world where many animals live all year round. You’ll get to see animals very close, and it’s one of the best places to spot Africa’s Big Five — lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, and rhino.

Arusha to Materuni Waterfall

After an early breakfast between 7:00 and 8:00 AM, we’ll head out for your Materuni Waterfalls tour.

This experience is a nice change from the safari. The hike is gentle to moderate and takes you through local farms, small villages, and lively neighborhood bars—a perfect way to stretch your legs after time in the safari vehicle.

After reaching the waterfall, you’ll enjoy a fun coffee tour led by local villagers. They’ll show you how to make fresh, organic coffee using traditional tools, with singing, dancing, and joyful moments along the way. You’ll end the tour with a cup of delicious, low-caffeine Chagga coffee.

To complete the day, enjoy a tasty local lunch prepared by Chagga women. After lunch, we’ll drive you to the airport for your flight to Zanzibar.
