The Ngorongoro Crater and surrounding highlands together form one of Africa’s most beautiful regions. Volcanic craters form stunning backdrops to some of the most fertile and richest grazing grounds in Africa. The most famous such crater is without question the Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera and home to the highest density of big game in Africa, including all the big five and plenty of predators. The Ngorongoro is justifiably one of the continent’s most famous safari destinations.

Flawlessly organised, amazing destination and abundance of wildlife.

5.00The safari to Ngorongoro Crater was superb.Currently living in Nairobi, we have been on many safaris and this certainly rated amongst one of the best. The crater is a true phenomenon and worth the trip for the geographical interest, but the abundance of wildlife was amazing. The trip was flawlessly organised with every detail taken care of. The lunch at Hippo Pools was the best safari lunch food we have ever had! The hot lunch (no boxed sandwiches) was a detail that made the day perfect!
Great experience

5.00This was such an accommodating experience. The staff truly went above and beyond to make sure I could have this experience even though I was a solo traveler. They found a way to make it happen - helping me arrange everything from start to finish. The quality of service was just simply incredible. I had the best time even though I could only go to a day. Wish I could’ve done a longer trip with them. Highly recommend Euphoria!
Highly recommended

Well organised and responsive

4.00The Crater is an absolutely beautiful place, and we were able to see all the animals (lions, rhinos, elephants, wildebeest, hippo, flamingo, hyena, golden jackal, buffalo etc.). Gabriel was incredibly responsive and helpful with organising our trip, even for a very last minute request, and accommodated the driver picking us up from our hotel in Karatu rather than Arusha, and starting at 6:15am rather than 8am. A smooth and organised experience. Bryson was knowledgeable and friendly, though perhaps a bit quiet. Overall a great trip.
Well organized safari with a very good lunch

- Review from Tripadvisor
4.00This 1-day-safari was our first. The breakfast place was pleasant and lunch was very good. Our driver was fast. Maybe even a bit too fast for our liking on narrow road along the crater ridge. On the other hand he listened to the radio and helped us find even some rhinos. There was a small delay during pick-up as the organizer forgot which hotel we were staying. Pick-up was on time otherwise and communication was good. Altogether well organized.
Lucky day in Ngrongoro

5.00By nature, your satisfaction level for this kind of experience really depends on what you could see on the day of your visit. Having said that, I was quite lucky, in that I could see everthing I wanted to see (all the popular animals, incl. lion from 2m away, and also jackal hunting baby gazelle). Disclaimer for visitor: be prepared for the heat and dust. Massive thanks to the tour guide Simba and the driver Ali!
Unforgettable day

5.00A memorable day thanks to the professionalism of this agency. Everything was very well organized, the transfers were perfectly arranged to the crater of Ngorongoro. The place is beautiful. Ali's a great driver. We even got a little gift when we got back from our long day. Euphoria tours is the company to book during your stay in Tanzania.
