Lions are plentiful here – Tarangire is home to one of Tanzania’s healthiest lion populations.

You can also look forward to classic safari scenery – savannah plains, river woodlands and rocky hills.

Between the forests at the foot of the escarpment and the lake that gives the park its name, enjoy rich birdlife and the chance of seeing predator ambush their prey.

You never forget the first time you see Ngorongoro Crater from above.

The drive down into the crater will be just as special, taking you down onto the crater floor where nature rules and no human being may pass the night. You'll spend the best part of a day exploring this remarkable place, seeing its lions, hyenas, black rhinos, elephants, flamingos and so much more. And when it comes time to leave, you'll keep looking back over your shoulder trying to hold these experiences in your memory.
