Ngorongoro crater

After an early breakfast, depart from your Serengeti lodge or camp and begin your scenic journey toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. As you leave the vast plains behind, enjoy a final game drive through the Serengeti offering last glimpses of lions, elephants, giraffes, or even a chance encounter with a leopard or cheetah. Descend over 600 meters into the crater to view wildlife. Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro conservation Area supports a vast variety of animals as herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park, is its dense population of predators as lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and the ever-elusive leopard.
