Our driver/guide will pick you up and start your safari as you proceed to Lake Manyara National Park for a full day game drive with picnic lunches.
The park is truly a photographer's playground and offers some of the best game viewing in the world. You can expect to see many of Africa's most well known animals, with tree-climbing lions being a particular treat. These proud predators lounge in acacia trees, practically begging to be photographed!
Bird watchers will find Lake Manyara an absolute delight, with a vast variety of birds on display in the park. Even the novice can expect to be amazed by large flamingo flocks, circling birds of prey, and the brightly coloured lilac-breasted roller.

Lake Manyara to Serengeti National Park
After breakfast, proceed to Serengeti National Park through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area with a game drive along the way.
The scenic drive through Ngorongoro towards the Serengeti is truly spectacular! Along the way, we will pass through the mist-shrouded rainforests of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. You might be lucky to glimpse Cape buffalo, baboons, or even elephants and leopards in the dense undergrowth. It is a nearly four-hour drive to the Serengeti National Park gates, but you can break up the drive with one or both optional activities—a visit to a Masai boma or Olduvai Gorge.
You will spot thousands upon thousands of animals in herds: wildebeests and zebras migrating together, tall and graceful giraffes, jumping antelopes and gazelles, the mighty African elephant and the most respected group of predators. You will have the chance to spot lean cheetahs and shy leopards, foraging hyenas, and last but not least, the king himself—the lion.

Start your day with an unforgettable sunrise game drive across the Serengeti! See the sun set fire to the savannah as predators such as leopards and lions hunt for their morning meal. Alternatively, you can take to the skies with a sunrise hot air balloon safari and champagne breakfast. Ask your safari expert about how this can be added to your itinerary.
After breakfast, you will take a packed lunch and proceed for a day long game drive through the park. Your driver will pick a route designed to ensure you have the best possible chance of spotting the Big Five and the wildebeest migration.
