Day 1
Arusha - Manyara National Park
Arusha - Manyara National Park
Your Safari kicks off in Arusha, where your guide will meet you before heading to Lake Manyara National Park. You'll have the chance to admire the stunning vista of Lake Manyara, observe elephants in the woodlands, and visit the famous Manyara hippo pool.
The park offers a great view of the 400 metres deep Great Rift Valley. This tear in the earth came into existence 22 to 25 million years ago, when movement in a weak area of the earth’s crust led to the formation of a rift thousands of kilometres long through the whole of East Africa. The valley is so enormous it can be seen from outer space and it has many unique landscapes that attract a vast number of different animals. Besides being home to Lake Manyara itself you can also find dense rainforest here with hundreds of groups of monkeys and a huge number of birds. During the evening drive to your reserved accommodation for dinner and overnight.

Exploring Grumeti Area
Exploring Grumeti Area
Following breakfast, embark on a safari through the western corridor of Serengeti National Park to witness the majestic wildebeest migration crossing the Grumeti River, with hungry crocodiles lurking nearby. Later, head to your reserved accommodation within the park.
The Serengeti Western Corridor harbors numerous pivotal crossing points along the Grumeti River and its tributaries, presenting a spectacle as wildebeest and other herbivores confront the daunting task of crossing these waterways. These crossings are often fraught with dramatic scenes of predators, including crocodiles, launching their attacks.
For those keen on witnessing the extraordinary Great Migration, the best time to visit the Serengeti Western Corridor is typically between May and July when the wildebeest herds undertake their treacherous journey across the Grumeti River. However, the region offers captivating wildlife encounters year-round, each season bringing its own distinct and unforgettable experiences.
