Visitors will depart Arusha at 5am for the Ngorongoro Crater, which offers an exceptional safari experience due to its high concentration of wildlife in a relatively small area. As part of the larger Ngorongoro Conservation Area, this diverse ecosystem is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is managed in a way that allows human habitation while protecting the natural environment. On arrival, visitors will be taken down into the crater for an exciting game drive. Here is one of the best places in Africa to see the iconic Big Five.
