Ngorongoro Crater

Ngorongoro Crater

Ngorongoro Crater is considered one of the Wonders of the Natural World. The crater spans 102 sq miles and has 2,000 ft high walls, making it virtually Noah's ark and inhabited by almost every species of wildlife that is indigenous to East Africa. It's one of the very rare locations on the continent where you can witness the black rhino. The crater has a river, several swamps, a soda lake with a great concentration of flamingos, a forest, and open plains. It's also famous for its elephants, which are the largest in the world and have huge tusks. Ngorongoro Crater is truly a Wonder of the Natural World.
You will start the day very early with a transfer to Ngorongoro Conservation Area. You will descend into the crater floor for an incredible morning of wildlife in one of the most stunning places on Earth. After a fantastic afternoon game drive, you'll ascend the crater and transfer to your Lodge for the night stay.

Lake Manyara National Park to Arusha

Lake Manyara National Park to Arusha

You'll be picked up from your accommodation in the early morning for your adventure and game drive in Lake Manyara. Although small (205 sq. miles), the park offers breathtaking scenery and is known for its lush acacia forest, giant figs, and mahogany trees, as well as a growing population of baboons and blue monkeys. Permanent residents of this park also include giraffes, elephants, impalas, and a large number of buffalo. The lake is also home to a large number of hippos. Unique features of this park include tree-climbing lions and flamingos along the lakeshore. The landscapes of Lake Manyara are something that can not be described with words, and the game drives along the lake provide stunning photo opportunities of giraffes and buffalo in the foreground and the lake in the background. Some extra tours are possible, including a bike tour or a boat excursion. After a long day in the crater, you will drive back to Arusha.
