The Ngorongoro crater is the best wildlife park in Tanzania, this is due to its beautiful landscape being a crater & easier to see wildlife

After early breakfast  will head to the Ngorongoro viewpoint and look at this amazing view, the view is surreal it will definitely take your breathe for a while

Will then proceed to descend the crater on a journey to find the black rhinos, rhinos are the hardest to spot in the beautiful crater as most animals will be easier to spot from this park due to it being a floor crater

The Ngorongoro crater is the highlight park in Tanzania, it is the most beautiful in scenery and it is populated with a lot of animals, the crater itself is self-sufficient for the animals inside so they don’t migrate out of the crater
