Morning departure from Arusha to Lake Manyara National Park

Game drive in the park with picnic lunch

This is one of the most diverse of Tanzania’s national parks, a tiny (325km2) combination of Rift valley lake, dense woodlands and steep mountainside. Manyara is a birding paradise (more than 380 species), especially for waterfowl and migrants and the forests are one of the best places around to see leopards. Lions hunt on the grassy shores of the

lake. Most visitors tailor a visit to Manyara to fit in with a trip to one of the Big Three parks (Serengeti, Tarangire and Ngorongoro).

Afternoon proceed to Karatu

Dinner and overnight Marera Valley Lodge

After breakfast collect picnic lunch and drive to Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

Descend 2000 feet (over 600 meters) to the floor of the crater for a half day crater tour.

Explore the forest areas which are inhabited by monkeys and elephant, the lake area, where you may see the flamingos and the open savannah where the lions hunt for food.

After lunch drive back to Arusha and drop-off at your hotel at around 17:00hrs
