The crater is breathtaking natural wonder
Awake early morning for breakfast and make your way to Ngorongoro Crater with picnic boxes. Ngorongoro Crater is a caldera, has sides roughly 2,000 feet high and a flattish centre with a diameter of about ten miles. The views from the top of the crater wall are absolutely breathtaking.
The crater walls are forested but four wheel drive vehicles will take you down into this primeval paradise of woodland, lake, river, swamp and plain that shelters around 20,000 animals. Many of these are the large grazing animals such as wildebeest, buffalos, gazelles and zebras that depend on the open grasslands in the crater. These attract the attendant predators, the black-manned lions and hyenas. The elephant found within the caldera tend to be the lone males who have left the herds in the forested crater rim.
After a rewarding day you depart for Arusha or drop off at the airport for onward flight
