DAY 1: NGORONGORO CRATER

Our guide will pick you early in the morning from your hotel. You will then head to the beautiful Ngorongoro Crater.

This massive crater is named as one of the wonders of Africa. A view from the crater’s rim is breathtaking in many ways; as you also get to spot the soda lake known as Lake Magadi.

We shall be able to enjoy the beautiful Highland Forest as we move through the Ngorongoro Highlands. On the higher slopes, beautiful grasslands and open glades pattern this vast forest. We shall then descend down the walls of the crater through a scenic winding road. At the bottom, a vast savannah grassland awaits us, full of African wildlife. We shall also explore some of the local wetlands as we move around the Ngorongoro Crater floor.

Mammals in the Ngorongoro Crater include African Lion, Serval, Caracal, African Golden Wolf, Black Rhino, Thomson’s Gazelle, Grant’s Gazelle, Common Zebra, Common Warthog, White-bearded Wildebeest, African Elephant, Common Hippopotamus, Spotted Hyena, African Buffalo and occasionally the Cheetah. On the outer fringes of the crater rim, we may get Maasai Giraffes and Common Impala.

Common birds in the Ngorongoro Crater include Kori Bustard, Grey Crowned Crane, Capped Wheatear, Abdim’s Stork, White Stork, Greater Flamingo and Lesser Flamingo.

Reptiles in the Ngorongoro Crater include Striped Skink and Nile Monitor Lizard.

You will enjoy game drives in the park all day, as you learn about the great animals and landscapes.

You will then return to your hotel or our guide can take you to the airport if you are departing today. This marks the end to our Ngorongoro Crater Day Tour.
