The Best Ngorongoro Crater 1 Day Trip Tanzania Budget Group

After an early morning breakfast in your hotel, we will come to pick you up, and we will start traveling from Arusha to Ngorongoro Crater, as it is the best time to spot animals. On this day, we will enjoy a game drive around the crater and stop for a picnic lunch at a small lake within the park. The lake is home to many hippos and migratory birds, so guests will be sure to enjoy the visit! Due to the animal "oasis" created within the crater, there is a high possibility of spotting every member of "The Big 5." The group comprises some of the strongest animals in Africa: the ferocious lion, the giant elephant, the stealthy leopard, the charging rhino, and the mighty water buffalo. Ngorongoro Crater is truly an amazing place. Did you know it was formed over two million years ago? A large volcano erupted, collapsing the volcano but leaving a perfectly unbroken crater, known as a caldera. Within the amazing crater, you can expect to view playful zebra, lumbering hippos, swift wildebeest, and cackling hyenas. There are also flocks of graceful flamingos along the Soda Lake, and hungry hawks and vultures circle the sky in search of discarded carcasses. Beautiful storks, ibises, and cranes are popular water birds in the crater, a sight not to miss. After a lovely afternoon of animal sightings, we will finally start our journey back to Arusha.
