The crater is often called “Africa’s Eden” and is also considered the eighth Natural wonder of the World. A visit to this amazing place is the main draw for tourists coming to Tanzania and undoubtedly a world-class attraction. Later we proceed to Central Serengeti for your overnight stay.

At dawn, the endangered black rhino will return to the thick cover of the crater forests after grazing on the dew-laden grass in the morning mist.
