The Ngorongoro District is 180 km west of Arusha Airport in northern Tanzania. This region is known for its protected conservation area, which extends over vast stretches of grassland, bushland, highland and lowland forest. The area is home to the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater, the largest caldera in the world, and a large population of lions, elephants, rhinos, leopards and buffalo.
The only way to get from Arusha Airport to Ngorongoro Crater is by taxi or private transfer. Indeed, the country’s rail network is still underdeveloped. The journey takes around 3 hours and booking a private transfer in advance is the best way to secure a guaranteed rate in an air-conditioned, modern vehicle.
Welcome Pickups offers meet and greet services and a friendly introduction to Arusha at the same price as a regular taxi. Click here to see the cost.
