Serengeti is Tanzania largest and most famous national park with the
wildebeest migration expected in December and May, Tree climbing
lions and birdlife in lake manyara and finally a tour to the worlds
most visited destination (Ngorongoro) famous for high wildlife
concentration and breath taking sceneries-more days spent trailing
with migration in Serengeti
Day 1: Lake Manyara
Depart Arusha for lake Manyara arriving by lunchtime. Afternoon game
drive. Meals and overnight at Lake Manyara Serena Lodge
Located beneath the cliffs of the Manyara Escarpment, on the edge of
the Rift Valley, Lake Manyara National Park offers varied
ecosystems, 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
Depart the lodge soon after breakfast and proceed to Serengeti
National Park through Olduvai Gorge (an archeological site, to see
the earlier sign of mankind existence): en route game
Viewing with lunch boxes, late afternoon game drive and thereafter
dinner and overnight at Serengeti Sopa Lodge
Day 3 & 4 Serengeti National park
Days spent exploring the park ; meals and overnight at Serengeti
Sopa Lodge
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 5: Ngorongoro
Breakfast at Leisure then view game as you drive to drive to one of
the natural wonders of the world, the Ngorongoro crater. Dinner and
overnight at Ngorongoro Sopa Lodge.
Day 6: Ngorongoro Crater
Leave after breakfast with picnic lunch for a full day crater tour,
explore the crater, enjoy picnic lunch at the crater before
ascending back to the Ngorongoro Sopa 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 drawcard 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
