Get up early for breakfast before departing for your game drive transfer to Ngorongoro Crater. The drive takes about 2 hours, with stops along the way to spot wildlife.

Ngorongoro’s main attraction is its deep volcanic crater, the world's largest unflooded and unbroken caldera, spanning 20 km across and 600 m deep. You'll explore Lake Magadi, a shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern crater, home to black rhinos, flamingos, hippos, and other waterbirds.

Enjoy a full-day game drive in this natural wonder. The drive ends at 4:00 PM, then we will transfer you to your lodge, about 45 minutes from the Ngorongoro gate, for dinner and an overnight stay. We recommend leaving early to enjoy lodge facilities like the swimming pool and more.
