There is no place like it on earth. We saw 3 Black Rhino, albeit from a distance. The animals are used to the vehicles so I captured some great warthog shots (previously most warthog shots were of rear ends disappearing with their tails erect). It is busy in the morning with vehicles. However, many groups travel distances to get to and from the crater so they leave by 1 or 2 pm. Several great lion shots, hyenas, zebras etc. Not many species of birds due to the lack of trees.

The crater is spectacular! I have not seen a comparison yet. The beauty of the park is unparalleled. We saw the rare Black Rhinos in the morning and everything. The animals are habitually close to vehicles so the trucks can get very close without spooking them.

One of my favorites! The beauty of the crater can't be described and we constantly saw wildlife- including the Rhino!!! We also stayed in a luxury tent at the top of the crater where the weather was cold! It was so fun to stay in a place with weather that differed so much from other locations- It was my favorite camp of the trip.

The scenery was gorgeous. The animals seem so peaceful. You can see everything in a day. The campsite was while not the cleanest very unique because of the elephants that pass through.

The view from the Ngorongoro Serena Lodge is spectacular.

From the ridge to the bottom of this "worlds largest crater," is 9,000'. The wildlife presence is one of the highlights. Elephants, black rhinos, hippos, giraffes, water buffalo, lions and many large birds. The food and view from the Serena lodge makes this a place to visit.

Ngorongoro is a piece of paradise on Earth. This is what nature must have been in the beginning!

It's an unbelievable Park located at the bottom of the Ngorongoro Crater and surrpounded by the sides of the crater. Visitors can find any kind of animal and the Amazing scenery can't be seen anywhere in the world.

Ngorongoro Crater is an animal paradise in terms of the sheer volume of wildlife contained within a stunningly beautiful contained environment. The trip down into the crater stirs the sense of excitement and our time wandering around the crater floor was richly rewarded with numerous memories.

Like being in a huge zoo without walls. The animals were fearless, so much less shy, and easy to see.
