2-Day Tanzania Safari to Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro Crater

After breakfast in Arusha, depart for Lake Manyara, where you will spend the day and enjoy a tasty picnic lunch. The park is nestled at the bottom of the rusty-gold Great Rift Valley escarpment, and the scenic panorama is breathtakingly fascinating.

An abundance of species thrives in the park because of its wide variety of habitats. The park record includes over 380 species of birds, some of which are migratory, making it the right place for birdwatchers. Thousands of pink-hued flamingos occupy the lake's margin, while massive water birds include pelicans, storks, and cormorants.

The wildlife you may expect to see includes buffalo, elephants, giraffes, impalas, and the ferocious hippos that inhabit the water. Your journey will come to a stop at Lake Manyara.

Dinner and overnight.

Have an early start to the day to ensure you are fully on the road for a day that combines a grand game drive with a picnic lunch inside the crater. Animals regularly move in and out of the crater because of its elevated walls. This gives you the chance to spot every member of the Big Five in one day.

The Big Five consists of buffalo, elephants, rhinos, lions, and leopards. Some of the other wildlife you can expect to see includes zebras, hippos, wildebeest, and hyenas. The crater also supports a large bird population, including geese, storks, and vultures. You may also be thrilled by the sight of lovely flamingos at Soda Lake.

Your guides are highly professional and will impress you with their ability to track down animals. This is a skill that books cannot teach and that only a select few can perform.

Your 2-day Tanzania safari excursion to Arusha and Ngorongoro will come to an end in the late afternoon, and you will continue back to Arusha.
