The park is home to all of the Big Five (lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant, and the endangered black rhino). The park also has predators such as hyenas, wild dogs, and cheetahs roaming the green savannah. The predators hunt prey such as zebra, eland, and antelope. The majestic giraffes can be seen picking at the tall acacia trees in the park. Crocodiles are found in the Grumeti and Mara Rivers, and hippos are spotted in the adjacent rivers.

Lake Manyara to Arusha

Lake Manyara to Arusha

After breakfast, we drive to Lake Manyara National Park, one of the most eye-catching national parks in the country. Large parts of the park are covered by Lake Manyara, a shallow alkaline waterbody that attracts both wildlife and birds. Flocks of flamingoes can be seen in their thousands by the shore of the great lake, projecting a very extravagant scenery. Lake Manyara is also considered a paradise of birds as it has more than 500 bird species, both indigenous and migratory.

Some of the animals that can be found inside the park include elephants, and buffalos can be seen roaming about the park’s woodlands. Tall, majestic giraffes in the acacia-dotted plains are a standard attraction. The park’s exclusive tree-climbing lions are also widespread acts. Warthogs, impalas, gazelles, klipspringers, and the lesser and greater pink flamingoes can be seen decorating the shores of Lake Manyara.

After lunch and a game drive, we will drive to Arusha.
