Arusha to Lake Manyara National Park
Arusha to Lake Manyara National Park
Early morning after breakfast, we depart to Lake Manyara National Park which is an unspoilt paradise and is widely popular for its abundance of birds and tree-climbing lions.
The dramatic western escarpment of the Rift Valley forms the Park’s western border. To the east is the shallow, alkaline Lake Manyara. The lake covers a large area of the park, flooding and drying with the seasons and is home to thousands of flamingos during the rains.
The name Manyara comes from the Maasai word ‘emanyara’, a popular plant which is used to build the protective enclosure around a family homestead (boma). The Park’s vegetation is diverse, ranging from savannah to evergreen forest. On your exploration of the park you may see giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, buffalo, elephant and if you are lucky; lions lounging in the trees.
After Lunch and an extensive gamedrive, we head for our comfort partner lodges in Karatu for dinner and overnight.

Tarangire National Park to Arusha
Early morning after breakfast, we depart to Tarangire National Park. The Park got its name after the Tarangire River which runs through it. This ‘river of warthogs’ is the only source of water for wildlife in the region during the dry season. In places, the vegetation is quite dense, including elephant grass, acacia woodlands and lush groundwater forest.
The Park is world-famous for its elephant families, which you can often see congregating by the river. You may also see giraffe, bushbuck and hartebeest. These animals are closely followed by a range of predators, including lions and leopards. There are more breeding species of birds found in Tarangire National Park than anywhere else on the planet!
