Imagine… Meandering across the Serengeti or Masai Mara in a four-wheel drive vehicle as thousands of wildebeest and zebra thunder past you. Your guide points to a pride of lions prowling amongst antelope following in their wake… Mythical looking giraffes gliding by in the near distance… Ngorongoro crater unfolds & from your perch on the caldera rim you gaze in wonder at the crater floor below with its great herds of buffalo, wildebeest and Zebra, a shimmering soda lake with patches of pink flamingo in their thousands noisily feeding and unseen prides of Lion await you on a crossing of the floor below which will reveal the rare black rhino, huge bull elephants and prolific bird life in a beautiful setting surrounded by outstanding highland natural beauty , volcanoes mantled with tropical rain forest. Not surprisingly this area was the cradle of mankind.
