A great sight at Ngorongoro
The first look you get upon cresting the rim of the crater is the most fascinating part of Ngorongoro. You can see so long, miles in each direction, and at depth 600 metres to the floor.
Big-5 is on display all time but we did not see a leopard here, experienced our only rhinoceros sighting here. Whatever, the feel is more likely an extremely large zoo. The animals seem to keep to themselves and not interact with each other significantly.
Also there is Masai villages within the Ngorongoro conservation area and it is somhow fascinating to see the lifestyle of villagers. Ngorongoro is termed as the location of Olduvai Gorge, being an incredible archaeological site for human evolution.

Lake Manyaya is junt an Interesting place!
In East Africa, this Lake Manyara is really very interesting place, as my openion. The most famous thing about this lake is, it has almost whole year-round water due to which it seems green and lush all times. For trekking the monkeys and baboons, this is the best location. We found that the game drive here was a bit more intresting if compared to the other three locations that we had visited. This lake is full of flamingos, but when we did our game drive it found that there are no roads passing nearby, so everywhere look was a pink haze in the distance. At this place we also get opportunity to saw some numbers of elephants, lions, giraffes... but it was kind of disappointed as being spoiled by the amount of wildlife in the other parks. It is interesting to see and explore this location, because of its dissimilarities from the other parks.

Great vibes at Lake Manyara
On a tour Package with Arlanda Tours we visited Tanzania. By our experience can say Lake Manyara was quieter than the other parks we had visited. The bush vibe was more evident as a result. The terrain was much amazing, which was far less open than the other reserves and provides a better chance to anyone for coming across animals unexpectedly, as we had done with a group of elephants. It also seems to be a great hippo pool.
Wildlife viewing wasn't quite as good as elsewhere, but in part that's down to luck. We had seen a large cat or two it would probably have been my favourite of the parks.

Amazing experience
We just found that it is a magnificent park. Have some unique scenery and easy to spot the wild animals basically everywhere, while they move, drink from the lake, hunt or rest.
1-2 day in ngorongoro is enough in my opinion as the crater is not that big enough. Accommodation from Arlanda is very good but also anyone may consider staying in one of the villages with a good accommodation at more reasonable prices. A trek on the Empakai crater by walking , guided by our guide Najib, as far as lake natron is an amazing experience.

Wonderful encounter to a great lake
It was my very first safari tour in African Safari with the help of Arlanda Tours and I was really hoping to have an encounter with elephants and giraffes among others animals. As soon we entered the park and have just a few meters inside the gate, we were welcomed by a big-beautiful family of elephants. Then we tried to came in close to them, to the point that we could almost touch them (a big no no). The scenery at their was wonderful with green-green grass and trees and small streams. Just a wonderful experience being there. Our guide Najib was incredible person with us, also make us help to took some pictures at a time and some video of everything that moved.

Well organised tour to a beautifull place.
It's all having Great sceneries around the lake. Cats, giraffes and Elephants can easily be spotted, while they go to the lake for drinking at evening or inside the vegetation on the way to the lake. It also rich in hippos, flamingos and many other species of birds. Have a great Sunset moments to enjoy and lovely colours on the horizon. On the way to the park, you can have a stop at the Mtowambu village. This was very interesting guided tour around the village, with the help of local people and with provents going to local population.

4 days in Mgahinga Nationalpark
Our guides Chris and Najib are both very competent and professional. They told us a lot of stories about their daily life and so they helped us to understand even better the culture and traditions of Uganda. The highlights of the tour were the gorilla trek and the hike to the 3 peaks of Mount Sabinyio. The online communication was very good, they are very fast in responding e-mails. It was a great experience, not only because of the impressive wildlife, but also because of Chris and Najib!
