We spent 1 day in Ngorongoro crater. The park is an amazing place with pretty dense wildlife. The scenery is flat but beautiful! We were traveling with a guide who helped us see the rarest animals including Rhinos! I am not a big fan of tent-based accommodation but my wife enjoyed it. Bring some warm clothes because the nights can be really cold there!

Ngorongoro Crater was jaw-dropping.

Seeing the view from the top of the crater was amazing, and driving down into it did not disappoint. LOTS of wildlife with a huge variety of species, weather was perfect (windy at high elevations so take a sweater!). The panoramas were just awesome, I was sorely wishing for a wide angle lens. We stayed at the Serena Safari Lodge, right on the rim of the crater, and it was wonderful. Our Sense of Africa tours were fabulous in both Kenya and Tanzania. Can't wait to go back!!

Just amazing - we saw so many animals, and it was a beautiful place overall. Wish we had had better weather when we were there - it was raining and cold but it didn't take away from the amazing wildlife that lives there.

Driving through the Ngorongoro Reservation Area and the Crater was unique. So many different impressions and so many animals. Particularly loved the Hippo Pool.

Amazing diversity of wildlife; more lions than I've seen at any other park in Africa.

We spent one day in Ngorongoro Crater. The drive up to the top of the Crater alone was amazing. We were traveling with Ranger Safaris, and we were very confident in our guide's ability and knowledge. We stayed at the Sopa lodge, apparently one of only three on the Crater's rim. Service and food were fantastic,and wildlife wandered right up to the sun porch on the back of our room. Weather changed throughout the day, which made for a great experience. I've been on over a dozen game drives, and would say the standouts at the Crater were seeing a pride of 12 or more lions, a pond full of hippos who were rolling over in the water, and hundreds of zebras. What a day! Highly recommended part of any trip to Tanzania.
