The crater is one of those spots you have to visit at least once in your lifetime to gain perspective on our planet. If you are planning on visiting Tanzania, then Ngorongoro should be on your itinerary. It is the biggest, unbroken volcanic caldera in the world. For nature lovers, it’s also an opportunity to see the most beautiful, powerful wildlife in their element.
Ngorongoro is one of the oldest and most dynamic geological ecosystems in the world. It’s witnessed the extinction of wildlife such as the three-toed horse and giant pigs.
