Arusha to Lake Manyara National Park

You will be picked up from your hotel in Arusha and depart for Lake Manyara National Park equipped with a picnic lunch for a full-day game drive. As you enter the park, you’ll be greeted by lush forests of Acacia and Mahogany trees, setting the stage for an exciting wildlife adventure. The game drive will continue until evening, with a short break for your picnic lunch.

During the drive, keep an eye out for buffaloes, giraffes, impalas, baboons, and blue monkeys. One of the park’s highlights is the tree-climbing lions, though spotting them is a matter of luck. If you visit during the right season, you may be fortunate enough to witness the shoreline turning pink with the arrival of millions of flamingos.

After the game drive, you’ll head back to your camp/lodge, where a delicious dinner will be waiting for you, capping off a day full of incredible wildlife sightings and natural beauty.

On the final day of your safari, you will start early with a quick breakfast before descending into the Ngorongoro Crater. The Ngorongoro Crater is the world’s largest unfilled, intact volcanic caldera, covering about 260 square kilometers and with a depth of over 2,000 feet. The game drive on the crater floor offers incredible wildlife sightings, so be sure to keep your camera ready. You’ll have the chance to spot a variety of animals, including African elephants, buffaloes, black rhinos, hippos, hyenas, cheetahs, and lions.

After a picnic lunch at the picturesque Hippo Pool, you will begin the steep climb to the top of the crater for the final leg of your journey. From there, it’s a 4-hour drive back to Arusha, where you’ll be dropped off at your preferred location in the evening.

With an unforgettable experience and countless memories to cherish, it will be time to say farewell to your team as your safari adventure comes to a close.
