Your final safari day begins with an early departure around 6:30 a.m., following either a light breakfast at your lodge or with a packed breakfast to enjoy on the go. You’ll make your way to the Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera and one of Africa’s most remarkable wildlife destinations. Descend into the crater for a 5-hour game drive, where you’ll have excellent chances of encountering a wide array of wildlife, including elephants, buffaloes, hippos, hyenas, black rhinos, and possibly lions. The breathtaking scenery combined with the density of animals makes this a true safari highlight, so be sure to have your camera ready! After the game drive, you’ll ascend the crater walls and begin the approximately 4-hour drive back to Arusha. Upon arrival in the evening, you’ll be dropped off at your preferred location in Arusha or transferred directly to the airport, depending on your travel plans.
