Ngorongoro Crater

Saw all the wildlife you can imagine in one place, very scenic

Beautiful place, with animals so used to the vehicles the lions even fell asleep leaning on one of the vehicles. Which really sums it up - so many tourists that they are used to being watched - for every lion a convoy of jeeps would appear.

Overall a good experience, but to see Tanzania you really need to get away to one of the more isolated parks such as Selous or Ruaha. We visited with Specialist Tanzania who organised an excellent holiday and I would not hesitate to recommend both the country and the company.

There is no other place I have found in the region with the spectacular scenery of the crater. The crater wall makes such a superb backdrop for the wildlife resident there.

A stunning place of geological history! So unique, so vast, so beautiful. Do not miss a stop at Gibbs Farm for at least a lunch visit. Very close to Ngorongoro.

Amazing park with fantastic wildlife, easily reached from the pleasant town of Arusha. This means it is packed with safari vehicles. But then anywhere good is going to be busy nowadays, isn't it? Goes hand in hand with the Serengeti - you can't go to one without visiting the other. Rivals the Mara and Kruger as one of the greatest parks in Africa.

Just awesome!

The crater is really very special and a must see on your safari trip. The rest of the area is certainly nice as well, but parts are primarily used for moving up to the Serengeti. Closer to the Serengeti, you really get the bush vibe back.

This is a must see destination! The view of the crater from above allows you to digest all the geological information you will read and that the guide will tell you. It is also a natural zoo, rich with water and vegetation that supports many wildlife.

Regarding wildlife, it´s the most exciting place I´ve ever seen. It´s PACKED with wonderful wildlife. We even saw a lion hunting down a zebra. Downside to this are the crowds of people (cars go in a queue at times, and car-jams may occur if there´s some must-see and the notice runs fast) and exhorbitant entry fees. No chance to camp inside, so you can´t really get a feel of the vibe of the place. Anyway, you cant miss it.

Spectacular scenery and animals. A Must.
