Gibb’s Farm

Ngorongoro Crater is a geological spectacle – a 260 square kilometre caldera which was formed three million years ago when a giant active volcano exploded and collapsed about 3 million years ago and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1978.

Today it’s a wildlife haven for lion, elephant, hyena, buffalo, large herds of wildebeest and zebra and the highly endangered black rhino and many other species living on the mineral rich pastures of the largely flat crater floor. The Ngorongoro Conservation Area stretches from the highlands to the north of the crater down to the Serengeti plains in the south and the Olduvai Gorge, land which has been part of the Masai peoples nomadic route for centuries and the peaceful co-existence of humans and wildlife of the past centuries continues today. A picnic lunch is provided. Overnight at Gibb’s Farm
