Arrival and Game Drive in Lake Manyara National Park
- Meet your tour guide at your hotel at 8 am and begin a beautiful journey across the Great Rift Valley for a full-day game drive. Although small in size at 205 sq. miles, the park offers breathtaking scenery and is well known for its lush acacia forest, giant figs, and mahogany trees, as well as a growing population of baboons and blue monkeys. Permanent residents of this park also include giraffes, elephants, impalas, and huge numbers of buffaloes. Possible extra tours are available, including a bike tour or a boat excursion.
- Return to the camp for dinner.
