After breakfast, we will depart for Lake Manyara National Park for a game drive while carrying lunch boxes. Once we have finished the game drive, we will transfer you to Arusha or Kilimanjaro Airport for your departure, where the safari ends.

Lake Manyara National Park covers an area of only 330 sq. km (127 sq. miles), of which up to 200 sq. km (77 sq. miles) is made up of the lake when water levels are high. The park is famous for the arboreal lions, which hide among the branches of the trees, and the numerous colonies of baboons that populate the forest and which will accompany you along the road from the moment you enter the park. The park is also excellent for bird watching and a good area to find elephants, hippos, giraffes, zebras, baboons, warthogs, and buffalos. At some point during your game drive, you will get out of your vehicle at the hippo pool to stretch your legs and observe the hippos.
