Ngorongoro Crater

This natural wonder and UNESCO World Heritage site is a breathtaking beauty, showcasing a variety of wildlife, including the Big Five, and over 400 bird species. The magical crater floor is surrounded by towering volcanic rock walls, including the historic Olduvai Gorge, where some of the oldest human remains and stone tools were discovered.

The Ngorongoro crater formed 2.5 million years ago after a large volcano erupted and collapsed on itself. Karibu Camps & Lodges is a proud partner of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area courtesy of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority (NCAA).
