Tanzania Dreaming - Part 5: Ndutu and the migration
| ||
Ndutu was
our next destination, still within the Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA) and calving
grounds of the annual wildebeest migrating. Once a year with the rains, Ndutu
comes to life when the migrating herds stop to calve and feed on the nutrient rich
grasses. Nudutu features a alkaline and fresh water lake, but the main
attraction is the open plains packed with game.

Tanzania Dreaming - Part 4: The Ngorongoro Crater amazes
Crater floor from the rim |
Back in Moshi the next day to hook up with Makasa, (tour operator and very reliable local company), to check out the highlight of the trip. First stop was the Ngorongoro crater for lunch and a half day drive. Nothing can really compare to the view of the crater which is a fully intact caldera. From the crater rim, with a set of bins, you can pick out game on the crater floor.

Tanzania Dreaming - Part 3: Arusha and surrounds
| ||
We had a
couple of days planning and getting logistics ready for the road trip up north.
The first part of the road trip would be on our own checking out some of the
more accessible parks on the Northern circuit followed by a guided safari to
the Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater and finally a couple of days in the hills of Lushoto.

Tanzania Dreaming - Part 2: Zanzibar

Couple of
days later we were off to Zanzibar for a couple of days staying at Stone Town.
Even for an experienced traveler Zanzibar offers something unique. Stone Town
is a maze of narrow alleys with a variety of shops selling just about anything
but one of the interesting aspects is the locals going about their everyday
activities in this place like no other.
