The largest self contained ecosystem in the world deserves a look. It does get crowded but it is lovely day trip with lunch picnic in the crater. The animals here do not migrate and for some reason there are no Giraffes! The landscape is unique as you descend 2000 ft into the crater. It usually visited along with other areas like Tarangire and Manyara.

There's no better place to get up close and personal with wildlife of all varieties.
Ngorongoro Crater was the best place to get up close and personal with wildlife from the smallest bird to the Big Five. The weather in the Crater was milder than in the Serengeti, despite both safaris taking place during the heat of dry season. Our safari guides were quite knowledgeable, helping us understand not just the ecology and characteristics of birds to flora, but maintaining a constant respect for the conservation efforts in the area and how they've affected the lives of native Tanzanians. I got great shots. Not hard to capture wildlife in motion, particularly in the bright sun. Lots of flexibility in how you shoot. Other travelers can sometimes be quite elitist. Ngorongoro is not as busy as Serengeti tends to be, but certainly is well traveled.

although too much crowded for my liking, the beauty of the scenery is undisputed and as in Serengeti the abundance of wildlife was amazing.

Utterly breathtaking! You have to see it to believe it. The crater rim vista is jaw dropping gorgeous. The drive down into the crater is a 360 degree scene of wonder. A multitude of wildlife to be seen in the basin.

Magnificent Ngorongoro
The view is breathtaking, the scenery is amazing and the animal life is abundant. We also saw a wide array of birds. The tour operators were generally friendly and helpful.
