www.somak.co.uk 59 Ngorongoro Conservation Area The Ngorongoro, one of Africa's World Heritage sites, is a natural wonder and a world-class attraction for visitors to Tanzania. The collapsed volcano has created a crater, known as a caldera, and is the main reason for visiting the area. The crater floor offers superb game viewing with wildebeest, zebras, buffaloes, gazelles, elephants, rhinos and Africa's big cats. Accommodation can be found on the ridge of the crater, or in and around the Karatu area. Safari itineraries that feature Ngorongoro Conservation Area: All of our suggested Tanzania safaris, based on group departure or daily tailor-made safari, include a stay at the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, as it is a must visit region on any Tanzania safari itinerary.
