Itinerary
DAY ONE: ARUSHA - LAKE MANYARA NATIONAL PARK
Flight Zanzibar – Arusha Airport, 11:30 - 12:30. Transfer to Tarangire National Park.
You'll depart from Arusha after breakfast for the drive to Lake Manyara National Park.
The journey takes approximately two hours, but we'll pass through the market town of Mto Wa Mbu along the way. This agricultural and fresh produce market is a melting pot of local cultures and a souvenir hunter's paradise. After a brief stop at the village market, you'll enter Lake Manyara, a park. The park is truly a photographer's playground and offers some of the best game viewings in the world.
You can expect to see many of Africa's most well-known animals, with tree-climbing lions a particular treat. These proud predators lounge in acacia trees practically begging to be photographed.
Bird-watchers will find Lake Manyara an absolute delight, with a huge variety of birds on display in the park. Even the novice can expect to be amazed by large flamingo flocks, circling birds of prey, and the brightly colored lilac-breasted roller. You'll then retire to your chosen accommodation for dinner and a good night's rest.
DAY TWO - NGORONGORO CRATER - ARUSHA
After breakfast, you'll depart for Ngorongoro Crater, sometimes considered the 8th Wonder of the World. Home to over 120 species of mammal including the fabled Big Five, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area is one of the most sought-after safari destinations in the world. It's a particularly good place to see the endangered black rhinoceros enjoying a lonely meal out on the grass plains, as well as a place to see large numbers of hippopotamus enjoying the cool water. From the comfort of your open-top vehicle, you'll be able to observe and photograph some of Africa's most recognizable faces.The crater is home to a large number of predators including lions, leopards, cheetahs, jackals, and hyenas, as well as a large population of wildebeest, zebras, antelope, cape buffalo, and more.It is truly one of Africa's premier safari destinations.
