Getting to Ngorongoro Conservation Area

Ngorongoro Conservation Area is located in northern Tanzania and is normally reached as part of the Northern Safari Circuit. From Arusha, private safari vehicles generally travel west through the Lake Manyara and Karatu highlands before entering the Ngorongoro area. Ngorongoro can easily be combined with Lake Manyara National Park, Karatu, Lake Eyasi and Serengeti National Park. Travelers continuing toward Serengeti can cross the conservation area and incorporate Olduvai Gorge or other approved attractions into the journey. Fly-in safari itineraries can also use airstrips serving the wider northern safari circuit before continuing by safari vehicle. Travel times depend on the route, road conditions, weather, stops and accommodation location. TanzaLux Safaris therefore treats road times as approximate rather than guaranteed.
