Lake Manyara National Park " the home to the tree climbing lions"

You will be picked from your accommodation in Arusha and start the safari heading to Lake Manyara one of the most dramatically located wildlife area consisting of massive but shallow soda lake at the foot of Great Rift Valley’s escarpment. It’s the park with highest biomass densities of large mammals in the world and the famous place for its tree-climbing lions, if lucky you can spot them up there. From the entrance gate, the road winds through an expanse of lush jungle-like groundwater forest where hundreds of baboon troops lounge nonchalantly along the roadside. Blue monkeys scamper nimbly between the ancient mahogany trees, dainty bushbuck tread warily through the shadows, and outsized forest hornbills honk cacophonously in the high canopy. Between November and April, thousands of greater and lesser pink flamingos gather on its shores, along with pink-backed pelicans, yellow-billed storks, grey herons and pods of hippo.
Later you will go for overnight stay in your accommodations.

Game drive in “the big cat capital of Africa”

Game drive in “the big cat capital of Africa”

This day is dedicated for the full game viewing in the central Serengeti Park. The great diversity of Serengeti wildlife is evident here, enough time to look for buffalo, hippopotamus, elephant, giraffe, antelope, Thompson’s and Grant’s gazelle, and lions. Everywhere there are animals, monkeys and, yes, birds…but look closely and you will be thrilled to see the huge jungle cats—lion, leopard and cheetah—watching the world go by. And go by it does. Rhino, gazelle, antelope and massive elephants by the hundreds. Animals in the trees, flying, camouflaged in the bush, in rivers and in streams. This is the adventure of a lifetime! Morning game drives are recommended.
After a full day drive through the Serengeti central plains, you will head back to you camp for evening leisure.
