Within this dormant volcano’s walls lie short grasslands, swamps, forests and a freshwater lake – all of which inspire a continuous parade of migrating wildlife. You’ll not only embark on a game drive in this “lost world,” but a private picnic lunch inside the crater will be a highlight of your trip.
