| Day 2: Sunday / Wednesday / Friday - Ngorongoro Conservation Area |
Breakfast at your lodge. Descend to the crater floor for a full day in the Ngorongoro Crater. This protected area is located in the Great Rift Valley and is also known as the eighth wonder of the world. The Crater actually is a gigantic fracture of the earth's crust. The magnificent landscape consists of volcanoes, mountains, plains, lakes, forests and archaeological sites. At 1600 meters altitude the bottom of the Crater (265 km square), dotted with watering holes, offers shelter to almost 30.000 animals in an area naturally enclosed by the slopes of the volcano.
The Crater elephants are strangely, mainly bulls. There is a small number of black rhino. The bird life is largely seasonal and is also affected by the ratio of soda and fresh water on the Crater floor. You will also explore the wildlife: lions, elephants, zebra, hippo, buffalos, and rhino are just a few to be mentioned. A packed lunch will be taken while on the crater tour. After an exiting day of safari, you will return to the lodge, where you can have a hot shower, a cool drink and a nice meal. Dinner and overnight at the Ngorongoro Sopa Lodge LDBB
| Day 3: Monday / Thursday / Saturday |
Breakfast at your lodge. Drive from Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha.
