NGORONGORO CRATER

Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in northern Tanzania, is the world’s largest intact caldera, formed 2.5 million years ago. Spanning 260 square kilometers, the crater offers exceptional wildlife viewing, including the iconic “Big Five” – lions, elephants, buffaloes, leopards, and rhinoceroses. Situated within the Serengeti ecosystem, it’s easily accessible from Arusha. Known for its rich biodiversity and unique landscapes, the crater is also home to the Maasai people, who have coexisted with the wildlife for centuries, making it a prime destination for Tanzania safari experiences.
