Walking Safari in the Ngorongoro crater in Tanzania
Step off the vehicle and into the wild with a guided walking safari in the stunning Ngorongoro Conservation Area. While walking is not permitted on the crater floor, select walking routes are available around the rim or in areas like Empakai Crater, Olmoti Crater, or the Ndutu region, offering a unique and immersive experience in this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
What to Expect
• 🚶♂️ Guided by an armed ranger, you’ll explore areas rich in flora, birdlife, and smaller game, all while enjoying spectacular views of the Great Rift Valley or crater landscapes.
• 🦓 Spot wildlife on foot: zebras, gazelles, bushbucks, warthogs, and possibly elephants or buffalos at a safe distance.
• 🗣️ Educational and interactive: Learn about animal tracks, traditional uses of plants, bird calls, and Maasai culture from expert naturalist guides.
• 🌄 Stunning scenery: Empakai’s emerald crater lake, Olmoti’s waterfalls, and the highland forests offer unmatched photographic and sensory opportunities.
Walking Safari Locations
• Empakai Crater: A lush, lesser-known crater with flamingos and forest trails.
• Olmoti Crater: Ideal for shorter hikes with a beautiful waterfall.
• Ndutu Plains (in season): Great for combining with the calving season of the wildebeest.
• Crater Rim Walks: Panoramic views and highland wildlife.
