You'll be picked up from your hotel in Arusha and depart with your naturalist guide for Tarangire National Park. Tarangire is Tanzania's third largest national park and a sanctuary for an unusually large elephant population.

Animals concentrate along the Tarangire River, which provides the only permanent water supply in the area. You may catch glimpses of lions, leopards and cheetahs.

Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast, you will depart at 8:00 am with your naturalist guide to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. On arrival, descend down to the crater floor for game viewing. The bottom of the crater is dotted with watering holes, shelters and almost 30,000 animals in an area naturally enclosed by the slopes of the volcano. You will also find the ‘Big Five’: lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino and leopard. The Ngorongoro Crater is the largest unbroken caldera in the world and is surrounded by very steep walls rising 610m from the floor. It is considered to be one of the natural wonders of the world and is an amazing haven for wildlife throughout the year due to the permanent availability of grass and water.

Lake Manyara National Park is one of the most beautiful places in Africa. The park is dramatically marked off by lush green vegetation consisting of tall trees of the groundwater forest, which provides home to troops of baboons and blue monkeys. Further down, the forest opens up into woodland, grassland, swamps and the soda lake itself, where over 350 species of birds, including the lively flamingo, pelican, sacred ibis, grebe and stork can be viewed. At the southern end of the park are hot sulphur springs called Maji Moto. Manyara is noted for its numerous buffalos, elephants, giraffes, impalas, hippos, as well as a great variety of smaller animals, and the very elusive tree-climbing lions.
