Ngorongoro Crater

After an early breakfast, we will drive up to the gates of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. We will descend into the crater, where you will be able to see a great number of animals living within the crater. You can expect to see lions, buffalos, zebras, hyenas, and antelopes; if it is our lucky day, we can see the rhinoceros. After the game drive, we will proceed to Karatu for dinner and an overnight stay.

The Ngorongoro Crater is the world's largest caldera which was formed after the explosion of a volcano some 2 to 3 million years ago. The crater floor is 1800 meters (5900 feet) above sea level and hosts around 30 000 animals and a great variety of birds.

Lake Manyara National Park

After breakfast, our safari guide will pick you up from Marera Valley Lodge and proceed to Lake Manyara National Park for game viewing with a picnic lunch. After the game drive, we will return to Karatu for dinner and an overnight stay.

Lake Manyara National Park covers an area of only 330 square kilometers (127 square miles), of which up to 200 square kilometers (77 square miles) is made up of the lake when water levels are high. Lake Manyara is an excellent place for bird watching and a good area to find elephants, giraffes, zebras, baboons, warthogs, buffalos, and maybe even the legendary tree-climbing lion! At some point during your game drive, you should get out of the vehicle, and the hippo pool is a great site to stretch your legs and observe the hippos here.
