Itinerary and highlights
Following a pick-up at 07:00 from your hotel in Arusha City, sit back and relax on the 3-hour transfer. An expert driver/guide will take good care of you and be with you throughout the day. They will share their knowledge of the region and explain the harmonious cohabitation of man and beast. Enjoy a picnic lunch (included) and experience the spectacular sights and sounds of a truly special place.
The wildlife take advantage of the year-round water supply and there’s a chance you might even spot a rare black rhino (with a bit of luck and the help of the excellent eyesight of your driver/guide). Ngorongoro is not just home to the wildlife: the iconic Maasai people choose to graze their cattle here too. This happy cohabitation of man and beast is what makes Ngorongoro unique in Tanzania.
Depart Ngorongoro at approximately 15:00 for the 3-hour transfer back to Arusha City. The estimated time of arrival is 18:00 and includes a drop off at your hotel.
