Our short, 3-day safari is guaranteed to be jam-packed with wildlife highlights as it visits the stunningly diverse landscapes of Lake Manyara National Park then continues to the beautiful natural wonder of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area with its incomparable crater. In both locations, wildlife abounds, but the settings – both spectacular – are equally and uniquely aweinspiring. Let our short safari take your breath away
Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater & Lake Eyasi
3 Days | 2 Nights
2 Pax Min
After breakfast in your hotel in Arusha, you will start your journey to Lake Manyara National Park, Lake Manyara National Park is a beautiful and compact park located at the base of the Great Rift Valley. It is famous for its tree-climbing lions, large groups of elephants, and the colourful flamingos that gather along the lake shore. The park has a mix of forests, open plains, hot springs, and the shallow alkaline lake, making it a great place for wildlife viewing. During a game drive, you can see animals like giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, monkeys, hippos, and many bird species.
After breakfast, we will drive to Ngorongoro for the crater tour with picnic descent to the crater floor for the day tour. Some 20,000 mammals live in the area including about 20 black rhinoceros, making the crater the best place in Tanzania to see these amazing creatures. The crater floor also has one of the highest carnivore densities in the world. Lions, cheetahs, hyenas and jackals are commonly seen, while leopards, servals and bat-eared foxes may be seen. Later in the afternoon we drive to lake Eyasi for overnight.
Lake Eyasi is a seasonal shallow endorheic Salt Lake on the floor of the Great Rift Valley. It is in northern Tanzania, south of the Ngorongoro highlands. You will have plenty of time to enjoy this tranquil environment and to absorb its natural setting. This large lake lays hight above sea level. In contrast to the savannah and arid plains of northern national parks, Lake Eyasi offers tall palm trees along its shores. The Hadzabe bushmen live in the region around Lake Eyasi. You can also find the Datoga and Mbulu tribes here. A visit with the bushmen is worthwhile and they will graciously show you where and how they live and hunt. They subsist entirely of the bush and by bow hunting. The Hazabe Bushmen are one of the last remaining hunter-gatherers in Africa and live solely on the land. Just as in the Stone Age, like our ancestors did for thousands of years.
