Lake Manyara National Park is renowned for its stunning setting at the base of the western escarpment of the Great Rift Valley. The park features a vast, shallow soda lake that spans two-thirds of its area, creating a unique and diverse ecosystem. This habitat draws an array of wildlife, including one of Africa’s most significant elephant populations, the iconic tree-climbing lions, and countless flamingos that gather to feed on the lake’s algae.

Ngorongoro Crater
Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast, we’ll embark on our safari adventure, descending 600 meters into the stunning Ngorongoro Crater for a full day of wildlife exploration. This iconic crater is renowned for having one of the highest concentrations of African wildlife, hosting around 30,000 animals, including some of Tanzania’s rare black rhinos. Thanks to its year-round water sources and abundant vegetation, the crater sustains a diverse range of species, such as herds of wildebeest, zebras, buffalo, eland, warthogs, hippos, and massive African elephants.
The crater is also famous for its thriving predator population, including lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the elusive leopard, which can be a challenge to spot without a keen eye. We’ll take a break for a picnic lunch inside the crater, surrounded by breathtaking scenery and wildlife. After completing the game drive, we’ll return to your accommodation, where a delicious dinner will be waiting for you.
