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.

Amazing place. From the view at the top of the crater through to the bottom of the crater. We saw our first white rhinos here.

No vast herds of animals, but the setting in the crater is unbelievable.

Incredible! The pictures I took here are the ones that everyone cannot believe are real. Lions so close I could hear them breathing. Hippos, Hyeana, Serval Cat, Flamingos, Jackals, Baboons...just everything. Beyond belief. We stayed at Serena Ngorongoro and it was very nice and had an amazing view.

Ngorongoro Extraordinarily Beautiful

Africa is already a unique place. When you to Tanzania, it is even better. Ngorongoro is the upmost. Imagine a wildlife park inside a extinct volcano crater, maybe with 20 or 30 km diameter, with all the animals living in perfect harmony: lions, zebras, hippopotamus, elephants, baboons, wild beasts, rhinos, hyena, flamingos, etc., etc.. The weather is unique as well, altitude atmosphere. The hotels are located in the edge of the crater with a awesome view to the park. There are good hotels, good food and accomodations. It is a lifetime experience!! Ngorongoro Extraordinarily Beautiful!!
