1-Day Tanzania Safari Tour by Velam Tours & Safaris Ltd
Offered by - Velam Tours & Safaris Ltd
Tour Features
Pick you from your hotel or home in Moshi/Arusha at 6:00 am after breakfast and drive to Ngorongoro Conservation Authority Area. Descend 600m into this magnificent crater for a full-day game drive. The Ngorongoro Crater is one of the most densely crowded African wildlife areas in the world and is home to an estimated 30,000 animals including some of Tanzania’s last remaining black rhino. Supported by a year round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro Conservation supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park is its huge population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and the ever-elusive leopard. You will enjoy a picnic lunch on the crater floor at Ngoitokitoki swamp. Evening drive back to Arusha/Moshi and drop off at the hotel or home where the tour ends.
