Day 2:
After breakfast decent into the Ngorongoro Crater for game drives with picnic lunch boxes, later afternoon 1500hrs drive back to Arusha town.
Ngorongoro is a fascinating and unusual Conservation Area which includes the Ngorongoro Crater at its centre, and then extends through the Crater
Highlands, in which local tribes are permitted to maintain their traditional  lifestyles in as natural environment as possible.
This extraordinary volcanic landscape is rich and fertile, with stunning craters and lakes, and the high altitude creates a malaria-free micro climate.
The crater is said to have the most dense concentration of wildlife in Africa. As such, Ngorongoro Crater has achieved world renown, and attracts
a growing number of visitors each year. Even if time is limited this natural but accessibly small caldera ensures a rewarding safari.
-The Ngorongoro Crater is the world’s largest intact caldera in an exceptional geographical position, forming a spectacular bowl of about 265
sq km with sides up to 600m deep. It is the stalking ground of 20 – 30,000 wild animals at any one time.
The crater floor consists of a number of ecological environments that include grassland, swamps, forests and Lake Makat, a central soda lake
filled by the Munge river. All these various habitats attract various wildlife to drink, wallow, graze, hide or climb.
-Although animals are free to move in and out of this contained environment, the rich volcanic soil, lush forests and spring source lakes on the crater
floor tend to incline both grazers and predators to remain throughout the year.
-Ngorongoro Crater is also presently one of the most likely areas in Tanzania to see the endangered Black Rhino, as a small population are
thriving in this idyllic and protected environment one of the only areas  where they continue to breed in the wild.
-The Crater rim, over 2,200 metres high, touches swathes of clouds for most days of the year, with cool high altitude vapours that seem to bring a clean
lightness to the air, and also a chill. These highlands wake up to a misty  fog in most months.
