Go to Lake Manyara National Park and explore the different views.

Manyara stretches for 50 km along the base of the 600-metre-high Rift Valley escarpment. You will have a front-row seat at Manyara to witness the spectacular wildlife. It is the best destination for a photographer for game viewing.

From the comfort of your vehicles, you will not only have a fabulous view of the Great Rift Valley escarpment, sparkling in the sun, but also expect to see the park’s best teams with wildlife, including the famous tree-climbing lions resting on trees, elephants, buffalos, wildebeest, giraffes, zebras, waterbucks and warthogs. You might also witness some big troops of baboons and a lovely variety of birds while the broken forests and escarpment make it a good country for leopards.

Reach Serengeti National Park, where you will experience early morning, mid and afternoon game drives.

The Serengeti ecosystem is one of the oldest on earth, and the annual wildlife migration, the largest mass movement of land mammals on planet Earth, perhaps makes it famous. Over a million wildebeest and zebras flow south from the northern hills to the southern plains for the short rains every October and November and then go west and north after the long rains in April, May and June.

8 am - 4 pm: Embark on a full-day game drive with packed lunch.

Serengeti, characterized by endless plains and acacia trees and punctuated by large stone kopjes, presents an archetypal picture of a wild and remote Africa and supports an amazingly large number of wildlife. Animals present include lions, elephants, giraffes, gazelles, monkeys, eland, zebras, wildebeests, leopards, and cheetahs; Serengeti’s essential features of climate, flora, and fauna have barely changed in the past million years.

Continue to the Ngorongoro Crater. 

This protected area also includes huge expanses of highlands plains and volcanoes, scrub bushes, and forests where the indigenous pastoralists – Maasai people can live within its boundaries. The Ngorongoro Crater is a world heritage site and the world’s largest unbroken volcanic caldera, often called the 8th wonder of the world. The crater is 610 meters deep and 260 km.

Breathtaking views of scenery and game can be witnessed from the crater rim and floor. Over 25,000 larger mammals, mainly zebras and wildebeests, are estimated to exist within the crater. Others include elephants, warthogs, impalas and buffalos. A rhino sighting is a rare possibility, but Ngorongoro is your best chance in Tanzania to see the endangered black rhino. Flamingoes and over 100 species of water birds are found at soda lake on the crater floor.

Savour an early breakfast.

Depart for Ngorongoro and descend to the crater floor for game drives.

Enjoy the bush lunch at the crater.

Drive back to Arusha—end of the service.
