Once you know what to expect during the safari, you will depart from your hotel in Arusha. You will arrive at the lodge in time for lunch and then head into Lake Manyara National Park. The park, named after the Masai word for euphoria, features lush vegetation and a tropical forest of giant figs.

After breakfast, we will descend 600m (2,000ft) into the Ngorongoro Crater for a morning half-day game drive. The crater is home to an estimated 30,000 animals, including black rhinos. It supports diverse wildlife, including wildebeest, zebras, buffaloes, eland, warthogs, hippos, and giant African elephants.

The park is also famous for its high concentration of predators, such as lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and leopards. A picnic lunch will be provided in the crater before we proceed to Tarangire National Park. The day concludes with dinner and an overnight stay at the campsite, with full board included.
