Day 1
Lake Manyara National Park
Lake Manyara National Park
After an early breakfast, we'll pick you up from your hotel at 7:00 am and drive to Lake Manyara, arriving around lunchtime. After enjoying a packed lunch, we'll embark on an afternoon game drive. Lake Manyara is a stunning park famous for its baboons, great elephant sightings, and lions that climb trees.
The park has various habitats. Rivers flowing from the escarpment and springs below the rift wall create tall, evergreen forests with trees like trichilia roka, croton, sycamore fig, and quinine tree. Trees are thickest in gorges, along streams, and where springs emerge. Yellow fever trees grow along the forest's edge. With over 670 flowering plant and fern species, the park's flora is diverse, including some rare or unique species.

Day 2
Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha
Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha
After breakfast and packed picnic lunch boxes, we will head out for a full day game drive on the crater floor. Ngorongoro Crater is an area where people can see the annual wildebeest migration, one of the wonders of the natural world (along with other animals like zebras and gazelles).
The Ngorongoro Crater is a remarkable landscape feature and is the world's largest caldera. It is home to a great density of wildlife and several threatened species. The area is also essential to the deep evolutionary history of humanity, with early hominid footprints that date back 3.6 million years being found there (another excellent place in Africa to learn about early hominids is the Cradle of Humankind in South Africa). In the afternoon, we will drive back to Arusha, which marks the end of the tour.
