5 Days lake Manyara/Ngorongoro/Serengeti migration safari
Departs on
Fridays
Day 1 Arusha - Manyara
Depart Arusha in the morning for Lake Manyara. Afternoon
game drive , dinner and overnight at Lake Manyara Hotel
Located beneath the cliffs of the Manyara Escarpment, on the
edge of the Rift Valley, Lake Manyara National Park offers
varied e cosystems,
incredible bird life, and breathtaking views. Lake Manyara’s
famous tree-climbing lions are another reason to pay this
park a visit. The only kind of their species in the world,
they make the ancient mahogany and elegant acacias their
home during the rainy season, and are a well-known but
rather rare feature of the northern park. In addition to the
lions, the national park is also home to the largest
concentration of baboons anywhere in the world -- a fact
that makes for interesting game viewing of large families of
the primates..
Day 2 Lake Manyara - Serengeti National Park
After breakfast depart for Serengeti passing through Olduvai
Gorge, the site of Leakey’s family discovery of fossils of
human and animal ancestors dating back to almost two million
years. Meals and overnight at Serengeti Ikoma safari camp or
similar
Day 3 Serengeti Game viewing
Full day viewing game in the vast Serengeti plains. Morning
and afternoon game drives. Meals and overnight at Serengeti
Ikoma safari camp or similar
Serengeti is easily Tanzania’s most famous national park,
and it’s also the largest, at 14,763 square kilometres of
protected area that borders Kenya’s Masai Mara Game ParkIt
is the Migration for which Serengeti is perhaps most famous.
Over a million wildebeest and about 200,000 zebras flow
south from the northern hills to the southern plains for the
short rains every October and November, and then swirl west
and north after the long rains in April, May and June. So
strong is the ancient instinct to move that no drought,
gorge or crocodile infested river can hold them back. The
Wildebeest travel through a variety of parks, reserves and
protected areas and through a variety of habitat. Join us to
explore the different forms of vegetation and landscapes of
the Serengeti ecosystem and meet some of their most
fascinating inhabitants.
Day 4 Serengeti - Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast a 4wheel drive vehicle will take you 2000ft
down to the crater, enjoy picnic lunch at the crater, ascend
back to Ngorongoro Forest Lodge or Rhino Lodge for dinner
and overnight.
The Ngorongoro Crater is often called ‘Africa’s Eden’ and
the ‘8th Natural Wonder of the World,’ a visit to the crater
is a main draw card for tourists coming to Tanzania and a
definite world-class attraction. The Ngorongoro Conservation
Area (NCA) is home of Ngorongoro Crater. It was formed some
2.5 million years ago from a volcanic mountain sinking due
to inactivity, and was initially thought to be higher than
Tanzania’s famous Kilimanjaro. The crater has evolved into a
unique and integral part of Tanzania’s eco-system. The
crater is actually a caldera, measures 22.5 km’s across and
the rim walls stand 600m high. Views from within and from
the rim are breathtaking (as can be seen from the picture).
The crater houses 30,000 animals, and a large variety of
birds, which rarely move from the area due to the
availability of water through wet and dry seasons
