We will arrive in time for lunch at the lodge and after lunch we will descend over 600 meters into the crater to view wildlife for a half day safari tour. This volcanic crater is one of the largest caldera in the world and is said to have the highest density of wildlife in Africa, so you can admire many animal species together.
