Wonderful microcosm of wildlife, with so many types of animals within such a small space! Unfortunately there were lots of other vehicles there too, but with a little bit of work you can avoid most of them. We saw a pack of hyenas chasing a cheetah here -- priceless!

If you're short on time and want to see big game, head straight to Ngorongoro. You'll see everything but giraffes here. There's so much wildlife it almost feels like a zoo.

You can't beat Ngorongoro for the sheer density of large mammals. That also includes humans. Tourist vehicles are everywhere. You just have to go in expecting to see a lot of people in addition to the wildlife.

While we didn't get very close to the animals at the crater, the scenery alone was worth the trip. It was magnificent!

excellent natural wonder but very crowded; you're never alone standing by the animals
