Review of the Ngorongoro Crater day trip from Arusha, with wildlife, lunch, guide quality, vehicle details, price, and practical advice.

“It was definitely thrilling experience for sure. Not just the animals but, the driver. He was speeding very fast and overtaking any car he sees. No matter where you're at.
