Tarangire national park is best known for its baobab trees and its year-round elephant population. In brief, it is common to see herds of up to 300 elephants of all ages and sizes. But predators are also well represented, along with more than 550 different bird species, the most breeding species in any one habitat anywhere in the world.
In general, it is the largest concentration of wildlife outside the Serengeti ecosystem and the only place in Tanzania. The fringe-eared oryx and the long-necked Gerenuk can be observed. For example, wildebeest, zebra and other thirsty nomads crowd the shrinking lagoons. While Lions wait early for the next opportunity to hunt.

Lake Manyara National Park
Lake Manyara National Park
After breakfast at the Marera Valley Lodge in Karatu, we will depart for Manyara.
Above all, Manyara National Park has most visible predators and prime tourist attraction are lions, famous for their habit of climbing trees.
Why the lions of Lake Manyara National Park? And not those of nearby Serengeti and Ngorongoro spend so much time in trees remains a mystery. The acacia woodlands south of the Msasa River provide an ideal spot for the Lions to retreat from the sun.
However, the only kind of their species in the world, not only they make the ancient mahogany and elegant acacias their home during the rainy season and are a well-known but also rare feature of the northern park. In addition, the lions, the national park, is also home to the largest concentration of baboons anywhere in the world — a fact that accounts for interesting game viewing of large families of primates.

Day 4
Northern Serengeti
Northern Serengeti
Enjoy breakfast at your Lodge or breakfast box. Then we will depart for the northern part of Serengeti National Park to witness the wildebeest migration. Then your driver/guide will pick you up from your hotel in Arusha. You will enjoy a fantastic picnic lunch en route to a full day excursion to Serengeti National park.
The wildebeest migration in the Wogakuria area usually runs from August to October, depending on rainfall. In addition, a long stretch of the Mara River runs through the northern Serengeti National Park, and the Mara River is the most challenging obstacle to the migration. Watching the wildebeest herds crossing the Mara River is incredible.
But when the rains stop & the land dries up, the migrating herds move clockwise into the Maasai Mara region via the western Corrido and Grummet rivers. Once the light rains arrive, the herds move to the northernmost parts of the Serengeti near the Mara River and the Lami Wedge.
