Ngorongoro Crater
Welcome to the breathtaking Ngorongoro Conservation Area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most iconic destinations for a safari in Tanzania. Ngorongoro National Park, known for its breathtaking scenery, diverse species, and distinctive geological characteristics, provides an unrivalled safari experience that promises adventure, amazement, and lasting memories.
Best time to travel
Planning a safari in Tanzania? The greatest time to visit Ngorongoro is during the dry season, which runs from June to October. During these months, the weather is more regular, and wildlife congregates around water sources, making it easier to detect them. However, the green season, which runs from November to May, has its advantages, including lush vistas, fewer people, and the opportunity to observe wildebeest calving in February.
Wildlife in Ngorongoro
Ngorongoro has an incredible diversity of species, making it a top safari in Tanzania. The Ngorongoro Crater, the world's biggest dormant volcanic crater, is a natural refuge home to more than 25,000 wildlife. You can see the Big Five - lions, elephants, rhinos, buffaloes, and leopards - in their natural habitats. The region is also known for its population of endangered black rhinos and a diverse wildlife that includes flamingos, ostriches, and crowned cranes.
Excursion and Activities
A safari in Tanzania is more than simply seeing wildlife; it's about immersing yourself in the
many experiences that the Ngorongoro Conservation Area provides. Here are some must-do activities.
Crater Game Drives
Take exhilarating game drives into the Ngorongoro Crater, where you may see a high concentration of species. Early dawn excursions are especially enjoyable since they provide the opportunity to observe predators on the prowl.
Guided Walking Safaris
Explore the region on foot with an experienced guide who will
expose you to Ngorongoro's minor treasures, including unusual flora, insects, and bird species.
Cultural Visits
Interact with local Maasai communities, learn about their traditional lifestyle, and tour a boma (homestead) to obtain insight into their culture and customs.
Olduvai Gorge
Explore the archaeological site of Olduvai Gorge, often known as the "Cradle of Mankind," where some of the first human bones were unearthed.
Bird Watching
For bird watchers, Ngorongoro provides good possibilities to see a wide range of bird species, particularly around Lake Magadi in the crater.
Best time for excursions
Most excursions to Ngorongoro are best done during the dry season, which runs from June to October. This season allows for smoother terrain travel and more dependable animal sightings. The wet season (November to May) is perfect for bird viewing because of the abundance of migrating birds and the lush and vivid surroundings
