3 NIGHTS/2 DAYS SAFARI – LAKE MANYARA/ TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK /NGORONGORO CRATER

You will drive to Lake Manyara National Park at 0830hrs and begin your game drive in the
late morning, which is the best time to see animals in this park. The Rift Valley escarpment
looms on the horizon as you approach it from the east, providing an impressive backdrop to
the lake. Monkeys leap from branch to branch in the tall trees of the ground water forest, and
elephants rest in the shade on the escarpment. Zebras, impalas, monkeys, giraffes, buffalos,
hippos, and other animals are frequently seen. Later in the afternoon, we'll make our way back
to the Karatu area for an overnight stay at one of the designated hotels.

After breakfast, proceed to Tarangire National Park. A 1:30-hour drive. This Park is especially
beautiful during the dry season, when many migratory wildlife species return to the Tarangire
River's permanent waters. Huge herds of wildebeest, zebras, elephants, elands, and oryx
congregate in Tarangire until the rains arrive, at which point they migrate to better grazing
areas. Drive to our respective accommodations for the night and dinner in the late afternoon.

After breakfast, drive to Ngorongoro Crater with lunch boxes for a game drive. The
Ngorongoro Crater, also known as the Seven Wonders of the World, was formed approximately
3 million years ago. Several animals are found in Ngorongoro, including the Big Five, Lion,
Elephant, Buffaloes, Rhino, and Leopard, which can be seen at Lerai forest, as well as Hippos,
Wildebeest, Zebras, Hyenas, Jackals, and many others. After the tour, return to Arusha for an
overnight stay in a hotel or to the airport to return home.
