The crater was formed when a giant volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself two to three million years ago. This 260km² crater is famous for its geological delights and for being a natural reserve home to some of the densest large mammal populations on the African continent.

I had an amazing safari experience with Borbo Safaris. From the very beginning, Rebeca and Emanuel welcomed me like part of their family I really felt safe and comfortable! Emanuel was honest and clear about what to expect during the safari, which I really appreciated. Communication was open and straightforward, making everything easy and clear. During the safari, I saw all of the Big Five and many other incredible animals, surrounded by stunning landscapes. I joined a group safari and spent the days with a lovely group of people. As a solo traveler, it was a great way to meet others. The guide was fantastic, always listening to our interests and making sure we saw as much as possible. He worked hard to give everyone the best experience. In short, it was an unforgettable adventure. I highly recommend Borbo Safaris to anyone who wants a genuine, caring, and amazing safari experience.

I did a 4 day Safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Nationalparks . The tour was very well organized. The driver and guide was nice and explained a lot. The food in the camps was really good. I can highly recommend Safari and Homestay with Rebecca and Emanuel!
