Ngorongoro Crater

The Ngorongoro Crater is the world's largest intact, unflooded volcanic caldera — a collapsed volcano roughly 20 kilometres across, its walls forming a natural amphitheatre around one of Africa's densest wildlife concentrations. An estimated 25,000 large animals live within the crater floor year-round, in a self-contained ecosystem so productive that game drives here rank among the most reliable in East Africa. It's one of the most consistent places in Tanzania to see black rhino, alongside dense populations of lion, elephant, buffalo, hippo and zebra, all within a single, dramatic bowl of grassland, forest and soda lake. A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979, Ngorongoro is administered as a multiple-use conservation area, shared with Maasai communities who still graze cattle within its boundaries. HOLYLAND visits the crater as part of our 10-Day Kenya & Tanzania Grand Circuit Safari, following on from the Serengeti before the circuit continues to Amboseli.
