3-Day Tanzania Safari to Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara

We will depart from Arusha in the early hours of the day and drive to Tarangire National Park, where colossal termite mounds and ancient baobab trees await us. This park is renowned for its immense elephant population, picturesque scenery, and diverse birdlife. Tarangire's enticing wildlife includes elephants, lions, giraffes, warthogs, ostriches, impalas, cheetahs, mongooses, buffaloes, and baboons. When our game drive comes to an end, we will proceed to Ngorongoro Crater Rim Campsite for dinner and an overnight stay, where we will witness the glorious sunset.

We will have a timely start to the day to ensure that we arrive at the Ngorongoro Crater promptly - early morning game drives provide an excellent opportunity to spot wildlife. We will enjoy a wonderful game drive with an appetising picnic lunch inside the crater. The elevated structure encourages the animals to settle inside the crater, which means you may be able to spot every member of the "Big 5" in one day. The Big Five tend to dominate the savannah and consist of buffalo, lions, elephants, rhinos, and leopards.

The Ngorongoro Crater developed nearly three million years ago when a colossal volcano erupted, making it the largest un-flooded, unbroken caldera in the world. You can also expect to encounter zebras, hippos, wildebeest, and hyenas. Flamingos lounge gracefully around the Soda Lake, while vultures are often found feeding on the discarded prey of predators. Other birds include storks and geese. Your guide will be in close contact with the other safari drivers, and his impressive ability to track down hidden animals will help assure that you have an eventful day. We will have dinner and spend the night at Fanaka Campsite.

In the morning, we will depart for Lake Manyara, where we will spend the day and enjoy a delectable picnic lunch. The park is nestled at the base of the rusty-gold Great Rift Valley escarpment, and the scenic landscape is breathtakingly magnificent. An abundance of species is able to reside in the park due to its wide range of habitats.

The park's record consists of over 380 species of birds, some of which are migratory, making it an ideal location for birdwatchers. Thousands of pink-hued flamingos occupy the margin of the lake, while other large water birds include pelicans, storks, and cormorants. The wildlife you can expect to see includes buffaloes, elephants, giraffes, impalas, and the ferocious hippos that inhabit the water. Your trip will come to an end in the late afternoon, and you will be transferred to the airport for your departure flight.
