The day starts with breakfast before descending down into the crater, a distance of 600 m to reach the floor. On descending and ascending the crater, you will be able to spot a variety species of animals. Most animals remain within the crater due to its high walls and this makes the perfect location to view every member of the ‘Big 5’ in a day. We will have a wonderful picnic lunch inside the crater. The unfilled caldera is also home to hyenas, hippo, zebra, wildebeest and an impressive variety of water birds. After you ascend the crater, the return journey to Arusha town will start.
