3-Day Tanzania Safari through Arusha, Manyara and Ngorongoro

• After breakfast, you'll depart from your Arusha or Moshi accommodation and drive to the park.
• After entering the park, you will embark on a game drive through Arusha National Park. Your drive will take you past landmarks such as the Momella Lakes and Ngurdoto Crater, sometimes known as "Little Ngorongoro". Your safari vehicle will also pass beneath the Fig Tree (Ficus thonningii), whose roots have grown into the shape of an arch large enough for a safari car - even elephant-sized - to pass underneath. Here, you may stop, get out of the car, and take pictures.
• At lunchtime, you will stop at a picnic site to enjoy your lunch. After that, continue with the game drive.
• At around 4:00 pm, you will leave the national park for Arusha, where you will spend the night.

Overnight in Arusha.

• You'll depart from Arusha after breakfast for the drive to Lake Manyara National Park. The journey takes approximately two hours, but you'll pass through the market town of Mto Wa Mbu along the way. This agricultural and fresh produce market is a melting pot of local cultures and a souvenir hunter's paradise.
• After a brief stop at the village market, you'll enter Lake Manyara National Park. The park is truly a photographer's playground and offers some of the best game viewing in the world.
• Spot many of Africa's most well-known animals, with the tree-climbing lions being a particular treat. These proud predators lounge in acacia trees, practically begging to be photographed.
• See a large variety of birds on display in the park. Even a novice can expect to be amazed by large flamingo flocks, circling birds of prey, and the brightly coloured lilac-breasted roller.
• You'll then retire to your chosen accommodation for dinner and a good night's rest.

Overnight in Ngorongoro.

• After breakfast, you'll descend into the Ngorongoro Crater, sometimes considered the 8th Wonder of the World. Home to over 120 species of mammal, including the fabled Big Five, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area is one of the most sought-after safari destinations in the world. It's a perfect place to see the endangered black rhinoceros enjoying a lonely meal out on the grass plains, as well as large numbers of hippopotamus enjoying the cool water.
• From the comfort of your open-top vehicle, you'll be able to observe and photograph some of Africa's most recognisable animals. The crater is home to many predators, including lions, leopards, cheetahs, jackals, and hyenas, as well as a large population of wildebeest, zebras, antelope, Cape buffalo, and more. It is truly one of Africa's premier safari destinations.
• After the thrills and excitement of the day, you will have a picnic lunch by the park's famous hippo pool.
• After that, you will drive back to Arusha.
