What makes Lake Natron so special?

-It contains great quantities of salt, soda and magnesite.
-Sometimes the water can turn red.
-Enough flamingos around the lake, easy to visit Ol Doinyo Lengai "The mountain of God". Ol Doinyo Lengai towers above Lake Natron and its countless water birds.
-The lake is very hot and sometimes the temperature can rise to 60°C (140°F) in summer.
Due to all these reasons, Lake Natron is a great reason to add it to your bucket list.

Day 3-4
Lake Natron - Northern Serengeti
Lake Natron - Northern Serengeti
Enjoy breakfast at your Lodge. After breakfast, depart for the northern part of Serengeti National Park to witness the wildebeest migration.
You will enjoy a fantastic picnic lunch en route 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. Around 1,500 wildebeest migrated to the Mara River.

Also, game viewing is excellent, and you can watch for hours without seeing other vehicles – truly one of the forgotten corners of the Serengeti Plains.

Ngorongoro crater
The Ngorongoro crater is known as the eighth wonder of the world!
The big five animals —lion, leopard, elephant, black rhinoceros, and African buffalo—are indeed enormous.
In Ngorongoro Crater, National Park, it’s possible to see all the big five.
Ngorongoro Crater
The Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA), measuring 8,300 square kilometres, is the only place on earth where humankind and wild animals coexist harmoniously. Above all, the Ngorongoro crater sinks to a depth of 610 meters, with a base area covering 260 square kilometres. Thereby, the height of the original volcano must have ranged between 4,500 to 5,800 meters. At the of the afternoon you will drive to your lodge in Karatu.

From Karatu - Lake Manyara National Park - Arusha
After an early breakfast and packed lunch, drive to Lake Manyara National Park. Enjoy a fantastic picnic lunch on the way to Lake Manyara National Park.
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, 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. At the end of the afternoon, we will drive to Karatu at your Lodge.
