Karatu to Ngorongoro Crater to Return to Karatu
Start your day with an early morning pickup from your Karatu lodge between 6:00–7:00 AM. Travel through misty highlands and lush forests as you approach the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. After checking in at the gate, enjoy a stunning drive along the crater rim before descending 600 meters into the vast caldera.
Spend 5–6 hours on a private game drive across wetlands, acacia forests, and open grasslands—home to lions, elephants, rhinos, buffaloes, leopards, zebras, hippos, and flamingos. Midday, enjoy a picnic lunch at a scenic hippo pool with unforgettable views.
In the afternoon, ascend the crater walls and make your way back to Karatu, arriving before evening with memories of one of Africa’s most extraordinary wildlife destinations.
