Often referred to as the African Eden and the eighth wonder of the world, it is also a pioneering experiment in multiple land use means to allow humans and wildlife to coexist in a natural setting. The Ngorongoro Crater is one of Africa’s most famous sites. Once a volcano supposedly taller than Kilimanjaro, the Ngorongoro Crater is 20 kilometers across with 600 metre high walls. It covers an Area 8,292 sq.km of which the crater covers an area of 260 sq.km , the Ngorongoro Crater is the largest and most perfect volcanic crater on earth. The first view of Ngorongoro Crater takes ones breath away .

Africa’s Big Five are found on the Crater floor as well as large herds of buffalo, zebra and wildebeest.The Crater alone has over 20,000 large animals including some of Tanzania’s last remaining black rhinos.

Volcanoes, grasslands and mountain forests are home to an abundance of wild animals and to the Maasai people .Open grasslands cover most of the crater floor, turning yellow with wild flowers in June. The Makat soda lake is great attraction for flamingos and other water birds, while predators hide in the marsh to ambush animals that come to drink from the river that feeds the lake. Swamps on the crater provide water and habitat for the elephants and hippo as well as the many smaller creatures such as frogs, snakes and several cats.
