Tour Plan
In the morning after breakfast our driver/guide will pick you up from the hotel and start your journey heading to Tarangire National Park. The journey will take you 2 hours of drive, upon arrival at the gate you will have 5 minutes break while the driver proceeds with the registration. Our guide knows the wildlife routines better than anyone; where and when the animals like to drink, to eat and where the predators like to hunt. Prepare yourself for extraordinary experience.
The park is huge; famous for its diverse landscapes and its astonishing number of elephants (the largest concentration of elephants in the whole country), with luck you will get a chance to see lots of wild animals like lions, wildebeests, leopards, buffalos, gazelles, giraffes, zebras etc. The park is particularly known for the abundance of Ancient Baobab trees the largest trees in the continent which fills the park, creating shades to the animals and nest to some of the birds. After lunch you will proceed with the game drive then exit the park heading to your lodge/camp.
In the morning after breakfast, you will head to Lake Manyara for a full day game drive. Although small in dimension (205 sq. miles), the park is described as one of the hidden gems of Tanzania, this park is famous for its tree climbing lions, lush acacia forest, mahogany trees, giant figs, and large herds of elephant, which are not shy to come straight up to the vehicle, without forgetting the growing population of the baboons and blue monkeys. The lake is also home to a large number of hippos. In the afternoon, transfer to Ngorongoro Conservation Area for overnight. You will have lunch inside the park facing the lake Manyara after lunch you will proceed with the game drive and exit the park heading to your lodge/camp.
On this day it is best to leave the hotel as early as possible so you can do an early morning game drive when the animals are more active (breakfast will be packed in lunchboxes specifically for this purpose). After registration, you will descend into the crater floor for an incredible morning of wildlife in one of the most stunning national parks in Tanzania. Ngorongoro Crater is unique in that almost all the wildlife lives within the crater walls; hence you have the opportunity to find the game easily. With luck you will see elephants, rhino, lions, wildebeests, buffalos, zebras, hippopotamus etc. Flamingos can often be seen in Lake Magadi, which occupies part of the crater floor. You will have lunch inside the crater facing the beautiful Hippo pool, after lunch you will start ascending the crater rim on your way back to Arusha.
