[2025 Ngorongoro Attraction] Travel Guide for Ngorongoro Conservation Area (Updated Jan)

Day 2: Safari we went slightly higher to Ngorongoro Conservation Area (2500m) today to see more animals & to meet the famous #masaai tribe although there are few negative reviews on #masaai visit as a ‘tourist trap’ (especially on the price, forced purchase, staged school tour), we feel it is still a must-visit place in itinerary. so for USD50 (per jeep), we were entertained with singing & dancing along with the famous high jump (Adamu), a tour inside their home (inkajijik) & the kindergarten, demonstration of fire making skills and the part bila when they haggle to buy those crafts n jewelleries. quick info on Masaai 1. traditional diet consists of milk, meat, fat, honey, tree bark & blood (cattle). cow blood high in protein. they drink it pure or mix with milk 2. they belong to the tallest people in d world. average man is around 6 kaki 3. they have their own Masaai Olympic-running, hunting, dancing & cattle herding 4. the houses are made from cow dung & human urine. poo is important to ensure the house roof waterproof & warm d house 5. they wear red to symbolize warrior/blood/bravery 6. laki dia boleh kawin ramai. in fact, the multiple wives buktikan their wealth 7. they are nomads 9. they hunt lions but nowadays the activity has declined #ngorongoro #masai

Because I heard that late July and early August is the best time to see wildebeest crossing the river, I booked a flight to Tanzania for early August. However, due to weather conditions this year, most of the wildebeest had already crossed the river by early July, which was a bit disappointing. But I still saw other animals, so it was definitely worth the trip. I had always heard that Ethiopian Airlines was unreliable, with many cases of lost luggage. But we were lucky; our luggage was intact from the flight there to the flight back. Flying from Pudong directly to Africa, crossing the Red Sea and the Great Rift Valley of East Africa, flying over Mount Kilimanjaro, and landing at Kilimanjaro Airport. From Arusha to Karatu, then to the Ngorongoro Crater, the safari officially began, and I saw more wildlife than I had ever seen in my life. Wildebeest, antelope, zebra, buffalo, rhino, giraffe, and more. We were quite lucky to see the Big Five in a single day. From the Ngorongoro Crater to the Serengeti, we saw leopards, cheetahs, lions, and other top predators. We were also fortunate to witness the entire courtship and mating process of ostriches. The last stop was Lake Natron, where we saw the sacred mountain of the Maasai people, Ol Doinyo Lengai, and flocks of flamingos. Tanzania is also a tipping country, and both US dollars and the local currency, shillings, are accepted. Currency exchange at the airport is relatively favorable. Be sure to take sun protection seriously, as it is near the equator and the midday sun is very strong. It generally doesn't rain during the dry season, but we experienced a thunderstorm one day, which the guide said was the first time he had seen it. Due to relatively underdeveloped infrastructure, the roads are quite dusty, so it's best to wear durable clothing. In terms of food, it can't compare to the great Chinese cuisine. Since we spent many days on safari in off-road vehicles, we mostly ate lunch boxes provided by the hotels.

The snow-capped mountains of Amboseli and the herds of elephants🐘 are the most magnificent memories of an African Safari When we set foot on the land of Kenya and arrived at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro The elephants stood, gazed, and passed by accompanied by flocks of birds This is a moment that is hard to forget in a lifetime Although the variety of animals in Amboseli is not as diverse as in the Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru it is truly worth the visit just for Mount Kilimanjaro! During the 8-day itinerary in Tanzania we could see elephants every day but still felt that the herds in Amboseli were the most healing and unique throughout the journey 🦒11-day African Safari itinerary (3 days in Kenya + 8 days in Tanzania) D1 Nairobi—Amboseli D2 Amboseli D3 Amboseli—Namanga Border Post—Arusha D4 Arusha—Tarangire National Park—Karatu D5 Karatu—Ngorongoro Conservation Area D6 Ngorongoro Conservation Area—Central Serengeti D7 Central Serengeti D8 Central Serengeti—Western Serengeti D9 Western Serengeti D10 Western Serengeti—Karatu D11 Karatu—Kilimanjaro Airport Before arrival, there was apprehension about traveling during the rainy season in May But in fact, going on a Safari during the off-season is so worthwhile!

Where is the Ngorongoro Nature Reserve is located in the north of Tanzania and is a very unique nature reserve with a central part of the famous Ngorongoro Crater. The volcanic crater of more than 100 square kilometers is known as the Eden Garden of East Africa. It is a collection of ecological landscapes such as grasslands, forests, hills and lakes. The rain is abundant and the living environment is comfortable all year round. The animals outside the crater are attracted to settle here, and after they arrive here, they will basically not migrate again. This will gradually form an independent closed ecosystem in the crater area. It is the only animal in the East African prairie. Migratory area. The magical crater Ngorongoro crater is 18 kilometers in diameter and 610 meters deep. It is the largest and most complete caldera in the world. Why is it called What about the caldera? Because the lava was sprayed out at the end of its last eruption 2.5 million years ago, which caused the top to go out of the pocket. This volcanic crater due to the outbreak or collapse of the mountain fire is called geologically. The caldera is gone. I was in it. I couldnt feel that I was standing on the crater. It was a great plain. Cool off-road experience Its very interesting that the off-road vehicles that are being visited here are specially made, because they cant get off the bus, so the ceiling can be operated up for the convenience of tourists. In the car, people can stretch out the camera to capture the scenery and animals. As long as a car discovers rare animals, other cars will come together in unison and neatly, and a group of people will take out their own guns and cannons. Animal paradise Along the way, we met a lot of animals and there were groups of zebras. The zebra's standing is very interesting. I also had the privilege of capturing the classic standing scenes of the zebras. In order to be able to observe the surrounding environment at any time, they will choose to stand in groups of two and two. There is a kind of brother trust that I will give you behind you. Thank you. We also met the little Joe's Tang's Gazelle, which has black stripes under the eyes and on the abdomen, which is very easy to identify.

The Ngorongoro Crater is the largest volcanic crater in the world. It is 610 meters deep, 20 kilometers wide and has a bottom area of 310 square kilometers. It is the eighth wonder of the world. Why do you say that the animals living here are extremely happy, because the edge of the crater here is about 2,300 meters above sea level, and most of the animals outside the crater are difficult to migrate into, so that the wild inhabiting the nature reserve Animals are here to live and work in peace and contentment, such as the paradise, which is a self-contained ecosystem. Most of the animals living in Ngorongoro do not need to migrate out each year to find water and fresh pastures.

There are no giraffes and E.

Peace and killing coexist in this land, and Serengeti is playing the world of mankind in another way. In the wild world where the fittest survives, there is still a utopia, the Ngorongoro volcanic reserve in Tanzania, and the Ngorongoro Crater is the most perfect crater in the world. It is a standard bowl, and even more amazing is the concentration of grasslands, forests, hills, lakes, swamps and other ecological landforms, where countless kinds of wild animals live, they do not have to migrate, live here, die here I have not walked out of this bowl for generations, and gradually formed an independent ecological chain system. This is an animal paradise created by a geological accident.
