Why this trip
A crater so large that it carries its own ecosystem: the Ngorongoro is the largest intact volcanic crater on earth, and standing on its rim you see animals below as if on a stage. For families it is one of the most impressive days of a safari. The Ngorongoro Crater Viewpoint is the first stop on the crater rim, and in the Ngorongoro Crater National Park you descend by off-road vehicle. The Olduvai Gorge is a famous excavation site with fossil remains of early humans and belongs on every route.
The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is a large protected area in which Maasai also live. On the crater rim it is cool in the morning, which is why warm clothes in the luggage make sense. There are no hotels from the data list here, so the lodges are arranged according to your wishes for meals, prayer times and rooms. The best time between July and October is dry.
Tarangire, Arusha, the Serengeti and Zanzibar are the neighbours. From Switzerland the journey takes about 9 to 11 hours with a change, and a visa is required. If you plan only one day in the crater, start before sunrise, because the drive down takes time.
