In Ngorongoro conservation area the Masai, their livestock and the wild life cohabit, thing that distinguishes it from other national parks.<\/p>\n

\nHighlights:<\/u>
\n<\/span>
\nOlduvai Gorge<\/strong>
\nA canyon with 50 km of longitude and 90 m of depth, where it is possible to see the famous discoveries of remains of early Man by Mary and Louis Leakey in 1959. There is also an interesting museum with reproductions of fossils found here.<\/p>\n

Ngorongoro Crater<\/strong>
\nThe famous volcanic Ngorongoro crater is the largest unbroken caldera in the world. The crater (700-800 metres deep and 265 sq km) is a microcosm that contains swamps, forests, saline, the lake Makati and a river of fresh water. There are about 35,000 animals within the crater itself. However, this is undoubtedly the best place to see black rhino in Tanzania, in extinction danger. The crater remains closed to the public during the night and it doesn’t have accommodation inside, the ideal thing is to stay in some of the lodges that we find on the top of crater and to go down very early the following day. Outside of the crater, due to the altitude, it is recommended to take coat clothes.<\/p>\n<\/div>
