Early breakfast

With lunch boxes descend down the Ngorongoro Crater floor for half day crater tour

Ngorongoro Crater is the largest Caldera in the world that has its walls intact. The Ngorongoro Crater floor, a sheer drop of 610 metres below the crater rim, has an area of 304 sq. km, with a diameter of 19 km.

The sight of the Ngorongoro Crater is simply stunning. “It is one of the Wonders of the World…” once wrote Professor Bernhard Grzimek. The crater floor is home to tens of thousands of plains animals, including wildebeest, zebra, gazelles, elands, and a large predator population of lions, hyena and jackal which can all be viewed at close range. The rare black rhino can be viewed here, and if you are lucky you can see cheetah and leopard. The altitude at the crater rim is about 2286 metres above sea level, and temperatures can get quite chilly in the evening

Late afternoon ascend to the rim where you will spend another night

Dinner and overnight at Ngorongoro

Breakfast

With lunch boxes drive to Serengeti National Park

Afternoon game drives in Serengeti National Park en route to your lodge

The park covers 5,700 sq miles, (14,763 sq km), The Serengeti ecosystem is one of the oldest on earth. The essential features of climate, vegetation and fauna have barely changed in the past million years. Some patterns of life, death, adaptation and migration are as old as the hills themselves.

It is the migration for which Serengeti is perhaps most famous. Over a million wildebeest and about 200,000 zebras flow from the Northern hills to the Southern plains for the greener pastures. The Wildebeest travel through a variety of parks, reserves and protected areas and through a variety of habitat.
