Therefore, you will go 2000ft down the crater by a 4-wheel drive vehicle, explore the crater before ascending, and drive to your Lodge set on a crater rim.

The Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA) is home to Ngorongoro Crater. It was formed some 2.5 million years ago from a volcanic mountain sinking due to inactivity and was initially thought to be higher than Tanzania’s famous Kilimanjaro. The crater has evolved into a unique and integral part of Tanzania’s ecosystem. The crater is a caldera, measures 22.5 km across, and the rim walls stand 600m high. Views from within and from the rim are breathtaking. The crater houses 30,000 animals and many birds, rarely moving from the area due to water availability through wet and dry seasons. We returned to the Lodge in the evening for dinner and an overnight stay.
