One of the best safari destinations plenty of wildlife for a small area and the scenery worth seeing from the view point

Sheer abundance

The sheer abundance and diversity of animals in such a beautiful setting was unbelievable. It felt like a land before time. From one spot you could see so many different species of animals, frolicking in streams and grazing on the plains with masses of birds swarming past them.
You can't get quite as close to the animals as the Serengeti or some of the other parks because there aren't all that many roads and the animals aren't always right by the road. That being said, we did have some animals that went right across the road in front of us: a bull elephant, a male lion, a serval cat, some zebra and wildebeest. We saw a rhino only through the binoculars.
I loved that we went in February because the whole crater was a vibrant shade of green.
Even if there weren't any wildlife in this crater, it would be something amazing to see. With teeming animals all around you, it is a true spectacle and one of the most impressive marvels of nature I've ever seen. Don't miss it.
