Tanzania: Ngorongoro Crater Tours and Safaris

Ngorongoro is perhaps the finest, and without a doubt the most impressive, wildlife destination on the planet. A perfectly-formed sunken volcano that hosts as wide a cross-section of wildlife as is found on the continent of Africa, including the rare Black Rhino. A game drive around this perfect natural amphitheatre, bounded by towering 2,000ft sheer walls, allows a rare intimacy with the resident wildlife that roam the definitive range of ecosystems.

The volcanic highlands that surround the Crater lope gently away into Maasailand, swellings of barely accessible crater and volcanos carved by N’Gai, the Maasai God, who is believed to live in the active Ol Donyo Lengai volcano.

Any area good enough for a God is worthy of further exploration, and with this in mind, Safari Legacy have compiled a series of itineraries that delve into this divinely approved paradise. From our private camps or selected lodges on the crater rim, we root out the elusive and the more visible inhabitants of this earthly Eden, hoping to catch the Big Five in a single day’s drive in Ngorongoro Crater.

For the more adventurous, a drive or walk into the Ngorongoro Highlands, to the verdant, tree-brushed slopes of Empakai, or the distant Lake Eyasi, home of the elusive Hadzabe people, are all highly recommended.
