Remote Walk on Ngorongoro Crater Rim

a new perspective on Tanzania

Let an expert travel designer
plan your custom safari:












See Ngorongoro through the eyes of the Maasai

Traverse the Western Rim along a local trail mainly used by Maasai herdsmen, their cows, and the periodic elephant or buffalo. This beautiful 16-mile trek gently winds around the the Crater, offering stunning and expansive views into the large caldera below. Stop for a picnic lunch along the way and enjoy a bit of bird watching before pressing onward to camp. The trail ends at your private fly tent camp where a cold, refreshing drink awaits you!

It was satisfying to know that the money we were spending was directly fostering conservancy and the Samburu people. Each place we stayed was both lovely and utterly dedicated to the animals and the community. Thanks for devising our fantastic trip.
