On your half-day game drive, you may encounter elephants, lions, zebras, buffalo, hippos, flamingos, jackals, and, with some luck, the rare and endangered black rhino. The lush vegetation, permanent water sources, and dramatic scenery make this one of the most photogenic wildlife areas in the world.
Enjoy a picnic lunch inside the crater, then ascend the crater walls and begin your return journey to Arusha. You'll be dropped off at your hotel or directly at Kilimanjaro International Airport, depending on your travel plans.
