  • Dominic Moyes
“We did our safari with this travel specialist and everything was well organised. Daudi the owner was very active and very open on answering all of questions. He also customised the best itinerary just from asking us few questions. Before the safari he met as at the hotel for briefing and dinner together. On the safari we had lots of suprises, the jeep was very clean and comfortable with books, binocular also Beers was in mine fridge inside the jeep and every evening after dinner we had one glass of a wine. The hot meals was served through out the safari. Our guides name was Mr Malissa he is very professional he couldn't blink his eyes, He wanted us to see every kind of animals at the end of the safari we saw so so many animals, he also verfunny and friendly, he taught as a lot about flora and fauna. We felt like we paid less for the service we got from the team. After safari Daudi came to meet us at the hotel to get the feedback. Thank you so much Daudi and Malissa.”

“We hand an amazing tour from Arusha to the Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater! Our guide was very kind and explained everything! The hotel we stay was very modern and respected European standards! If we get the chance to travel again to Tanzania, we will for sure contact this company again! Thanks again for the great time!”
Best Experience Ever!

  • Yiping
“Usually, I plan every little detail of my vacations on my own. This was the first time I didn't have the time and used a travel agency. They made everything very easy and effortless. I was able to customize our trip based on our needs and wishes. There are so many travel companies in Tanzania that offer similar things. The reason why I chose this agency was that they had very good communication. I couldn't be happier with the decision and would do it again.”

Tips for Ngorongoro Crater Safari

  • Plan your Ngorongoro Crater tour during the dry season (June to September) when wildlife sighting conditions are at their best. If you want to witness the migrating wildebeests, plan your trip in December.
  • Opt for guided safari walks around the adjacent wilderness area.
  • Choose an early morning game drive to witness the vibrant wildlife activity within the Ngorongoro Crater.
  • Bring a pair of high-quality binoculars to spot distant wildlife and birdlife.
  • Dress appropriately for your Ngorongoro Crater safari bot to adjust to the weather conditions and blend into the surrounding.

Best Time to Visit Ngorongoro Crater

The animals in the Ngorongoro Crater will be within the crater throughout the year, so you can see them regardless of when you visit.The weather is good during the peak season (July - October), with little to no rainfall. However, a large number of tourists visit during this period, and it can get crowded at times.To avoid the crowd and get a quiet experience, you can visit Ngorongoro Crater during the low season (January - April). However, heavy rainfall may dampen your plans to some extent. For a more detailed overview, check out our best time to visit Tanzania guide.
