After breakfast, we depart from Arusha and enter the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Our journey continues across the Ngorongoro Highlands toward the Ndutu region, where we begin our game drive with a special focus on witnessing the great migration.

Between December and April, massive herds gather around the Lake Ndutu area, located between the Serengeti and Ngorongoro, attracted by the abundance of fresh grazing. This is also prime time for predators on the lookout for prey. From January onwards, the wildebeest calving season begins, offering an incredible opportunity to witness newborns taking their first steps amidst the migration.

This morning, you will gently wend your way through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, seeing more animals only the way (it is common to see a journey of giraffe on the lush slopes). You should reach the crater by lunchtime.

When you first see Ngorongoro Crater, it looks like a forgotten world. Concealed by the steep volcanic walls is a pristine wilderness including sweeping savannah, pockets of acacia woodland, and glistening lakes and swamps. The crater was created when a large volcano exploded and collapsed 2 to 3 million years ago. The drive down into the crater is an adventure in itself, and when you reach the crater floor, you quickly find yourself amongst large numbers of wildebeests, zebras, gazelles, and more than 500 bird species. The crater provides you with the best chance of seeing the endangered black rhinos, which can sometimes be spotted in the open grasslands.

After an afternoon game drive, you will head to your accommodation in Arusha.
