Ngorongoro Crater & Tarangire Safari

About This Tour

The Ngorongoro Crater is one of the most extraordinary places on our planet: a self-contained ecosystem 19km across and 600m deep, formed when an ancient volcano's magma chamber collapsed 2–3 million years ago. Inside the caldera lives the world's densest concentration of wildlife — approximately 25,000 large animals including lion, elephant, hippo, spotted hyena, wildebeest, zebra, eland, and one of East Africa's most reliable black rhino populations. The Crater has become the benchmark against which all wildlife experiences are measured. Our 6-day itinerary pairs this geological wonder with Tarangire National Park — a less-visited but extraordinary landscape of enormous baobab trees, vast elephant herds, and the Tarangire River that draws all wildlife in the dry season. This is Northern Tanzania's most concentrated wildlife experience, offering extraordinary diversity without travelling vast distances between parks.
