Activities Ngorongoro Crater Lodge
Cultural visit to Hadzabe bushmen
Hadzabe Bushmen are an ancient tribe that occupies Lake Eyasi territories and lives in the wild. With help of the &Beyond guide, they will introduce you to their customs and traditions, display their hunting and survival skills and show you their ways of fruit and berry picking. At the same time, you will get a chance to explore the stunning alkaline Lake Eyasi, which is part of The Great Rift Valley.
Full day Empakaai Crater hike
Empakaai crater is a little crater not far from Ngorongoro. Here you’ll get an excellent opportunity to have some rest from all the jeep rides and finally take a full hiking day to explore the wilderness. Empakaai Crater is surrounded with a thick green forest and has a lake inside. From this spot you can see a famous active volcano Ol Doinyo Lengai when the weather is clear.
Tour of Olduvai Gorge and Shifting Sands
Olduvai Gorge is the world-famous paleoanthropological site where one of the first remains of homo sapiens were found. This little museum is also known as the Cradle of Mankind. If you are interested in archaeological historical places, you will be definitely fascinated by this one! The excursion continues with the Shifting Dune. A small constantly moving ash dune formed by volcanic dust rarely stops at the same place thanks to the unidirectional wind.
