A Natural Wonder
The Ngorongoro Crater is often referred to as the "Eighth Wonder of the World." This massive caldera, formed around 2.5 million years ago by the collapse of a volcano, creates a unique, self-contained ecosystem.
Wildlife Density
The crater floor is home to over 25,000 large animals, including one of the best places in Africa to see the Big Five in a single game drive.
The Black Rhino
Ngorongoro is one of the few places remaining where you have a good chance of spotting the critically endangered black rhino.
Maasai Coexistence
The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is unique because wildlife coexists with semi-nomadic Maasai pastoralists.
