We saw Rhino's, make sure you go early and go through the forrest first to catch the Rhino's and Elephants on their way to the water holes in the morning.

Similar to the Serengeti in terms of numbers of tourists, this open expanse is dramatically set in a crater and full of wildlife. The weather wasn't great when we were there, in part thanks to its altitude.

We saw a lioness make a kill at one point, which was inevitably quite exciting, though our view was obstructed at points by the other 4x4s that were gathered on the path ahead of us. I would have liked more time here.

A fantastic ecosystem to explore. You would think that the wildlife would be content to remain in the Crater but they make nightly visits to the Serena Lodge which is perched right on the Crater rim.

Ngorongoro has a huge number of wild animals within a fairly small space.

Amazing experience

Overall rating

5/5

I found NCA a magnificent park. Unique scenary, wild animals basically everywhere and easily to spot and see while they e.g. move, drink from the lake, hunt, rest.
1/2 days in ngorongoro is in my opinion enough as the crater is not that big. Accomodation is somewhat expensive and one may consider staying in one of the villages just outisde the NCA for good accomodation at molre reasonable prices. A trek on the Empakai crater possibly walking , guided by a masai, as far as lake natron is an amazing experience.
