Ngorongoro Crater - The Ngorongoro Crater is a veritable fishbowl filled to the brim with a diverse array of wildlife, the hollowed out remains of a shield volcano which one stood higher than Mount Kilimanjaro, the Roof of Africa, which erupted two million years ago to create the twenty one kilometre wide national park we know and love today.

The main attraction of the Ngorongoro Crater is the incredibly rare black rhino population of over fifty individuals, which are supported by the year round water supply and lush vegetation due to the volcanic soil, along with one of the densest population of predators in the world, including lion, hyena, jackals, cheetahs and the ever-elusive leopard.

Lunch will be enjoyed at a picnic site beside a hippo pool so you can eat a sandwich right next to some sleeping hippos, which is every bit as incredible as it sounds!

Tarangire National Park; Elephants, Lions, Leopard, Cheetah Galore and More, Before a Transfer to Arusha or the Airport

Tarangire National Park - This national park is often people’s favourite park on the northern safari circuit outside of the Serengeti since there is so much wildlife waiting around every corner.

Thanks to a heterogenous array of topography which provides lots of different plant and tree species ample room to grow, a diverse array of herbivores has been attracted to the area, which is why Tarangire National Park is the “Home of the Elephants” in Tanzania, along with lots of other species including buffalo, eland, gemsbok, zebra, wildebeest et al. Naturally, this attracts the attention of the predators that are always following closely behind their prey, the lions, leopards, cheetah, caracal, serval, jackal et al.

After visiting Tarangire National Park, you will depart in the afternoon to be transferred back to the airport, either to catch a flight to Zanzibar or catch an international flight elsewhere, or we will drop you off at your hotel in Arusha or Moshi.
