Lake Manyara offers an excellent opportunity to experience Tanzania's diverse bird species, with over 400 varieties documented.

In the inner regions of the floodplain, a narrow strip of acacia woodland serves as the preferred habitat for Manyara's renowned tree-climbing lions and majestic elephants with impressive tusks.

Upon our arrival in the afternoon, we will enjoy a picnic lunch before continuing our exploration with another game drive.

The park is renowned for its diverse wildlife population, including the famous Big Five - a term coined for the most sought-after trophies by hunters. The Serengeti boasts the largest concentration of lions in Africa, attributed in part to the abundant prey species found in the area. It's estimated that over 3,000 lions inhabit this ecosystem.

Day 3

Serengeti National park

Serengeti National park

This morning, you'll embark on an early game drive in the Serengeti. Witness a spectacle where a million wildebeest, each guided by an ancient instinct, follow a timeless rhythm. Over three frenzied weeks, they engage in territorial battles and mating rituals, surviving through the principle of natural selection. They undertake a perilous journey, crossing 40km of crocodile-infested waters as part of their annual migration northward. This journey serves to replenish their species, with over 8,000 calves born daily during this brief period of population explosion. Once the pilgrimage concludes, spanning 1,000 km, the cycle begins anew.
