Days 6 & 7: Ngorongoro Crater Conservation Area

Enjoy an early morning game-drive and breakfast before your scheduled flight to Manyara Airstrip. A representative from Ngorongoro Crater Lodge will meet you for your transfer, 2 hours and 30 minutes, to the lodge.

Ngorongoro Crater Safari Lodge:
At the eastern edge of the Serengeti, and nearly three million years old, the ancient caldera of the once-volcanic Ngorongoro shelters the most beautiful wildlife haven left on earth. Perched on the edge of the ancient crater rim, the architectural masterpiece of the Ngorongoro Crater Lodge is a magnificent return to the noble elegance of the travelling colonials.

Inspired in design by the Masai manyatta, three separate camps remember a bygone era. The lodge is composed of separate camps, each consisting of just 6 to 12 suites. Each sumptuous suite is discreetly tended by a personal butler, who will bring you tea in bed, stoke your fireplace and even draw your bath, scattering the water with rose petals, ready for your return from your safari and a sumptuous picnic on the crater floor.
