1-Day Ngorongoro Crater Tour

This short safari starts in Arusha and takes you to the magnificent Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The 264sq km (101sq mi) Ngorongoro Crater is famous worldwide for its panoramic views within the 610m intact caldera. You will have a great time viewing a vast array of animals, including rhinos, lions, foxes, groups of elephants, and different types of antelope.

Arrival in Arusha

Upon your arrival at either Kilimanjaro International Airport or Arusha Airport, you’ll be greeted by a representative from Masai Jungle Adventure who will escort you to your hotel. This initial day allows you to settle in and rest after your journey. Later, you’ll meet with our safari expert who will provide detailed information about the upcoming safari, including safety guidelines, wildlife expectations, and cultural insights.

Day 1: Arusha – Ngorongoro Crater

At 6:00am, we will pick you up at your hotel or other accommodation in Arusha from where we depart. We will drive directly to Ngorongoro, and within 3 hours, we will be at our destination. Enjoy a game drive inside the crater, where you can view elephants, eland, hartebeest, and endangered rhinos, among other wildlife. There are also resident zebras and wildebeest in the crater that do not participate in the annual migration. Hippos are found in the permanent freshwater pools and the swamps in the crater. During the game drive, we will stop for a picnic lunch. We will return to Arusha in the afternoon and drop you off at your accommodation.
