Northern Tanzania
A Natural World Inside an Ancient Crater
Few safari landscapes are as dramatic as Ngorongoro.
The vast volcanic crater creates a remarkable natural setting where grasslands, forests, wetlands, and wildlife exist together within a relatively compact area.
Game drives can bring you close to lions, elephants, buffaloes, hippos, zebras, hyenas, and, with patience and luck, the rare black rhino.
Beyond the crater itself, the surrounding conservation area offers beautiful highland scenery and important cultural experiences.
