Itinerary

1. Day 1: Moshi/Arusha to Lake Manyara National Park

   • Get picked up in the morning from your hotel and proceed to the Manyara Lake National Park. This park offers areas of dense woodland in which live the long-tailed blue monkeys as well as baboons, antelopes and gazelles and also approximately 500 elephants. The Manyara National Park is also known for its lions which like to lounge around in trees – this behavior is not common among large cats and makes for quite a sight. 

   • Have a mid-day picnic in the park, after which the tour continues with more chances to observe these fantastic animals. 

   • Later on in the day, leave the national park and proceed to the cooler crater uplands, where you will overnight at Ngorongoro Farm House.

   Meals: Lunch and Dinner.

2. Day 2: Lake Manyara National Park to Ngorongoro Conservation Area

   • After breakfast, the safari continues with a trip to the Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s famed site. This is the world’s largest unflooded caldera – a feature formed by the collapse of land following a volcanic eruption. It is the home to an estimated 25000 mammals.

   • Spot elephants, zebras, wildebeest, buffalo, an array of antelopes, gazelles, hippopotami, warthogs, and hyena. There is also a very good chance that you will also see leopards, lions and the black rhino. The black rhino is unfortunately threatened with extinction. 

   • After lunch, there will be more time for wildlife spotting before it’s time to leave the Ngorongoro Crater and return to Arusha.

   Meals: Lunch and Dinner.
