Day 6 of our safari saw us down in the Ngorongoro Crater (actually Caldera). It is 30x20km across and acts as a mini ecosystem all on its own as the steep walls minimize migration in and out of the Caldera.
The animals are a bit more human acclimatized and so aren't as skittish when the vehicles pass by.
