Besides the Hadzabe there is another tribe that lives nearby - the Datogas. The Datogas however are more like the Maasai. They engage in agriculture and are excellent at working with metals.

Lake Manyara National Park is a tiny yet varied park. The scale of everything you see here is different. It is both majestic (the Great Rift Escarpment towering over the western limit of Lake Manyara) and compact (this is one of Africa's narrowest parks). A tiny Salt Lake is the park's namesake. It spans a sizable portion of the park and floods and dries with the seasons. In addition to keeping an eye out for the tree-climbing lions that have gained international fame, you might spot baboons and elephants in the park's dense evergreen forest.

Main Destination:
Lake Manyara National Park
Best Time To Visit June to October (Easier to spot animals)
