Day 1

Arusha to Lake Manyara National Park

Arusha to Lake Manyara National Park

Your Safari kicks off in Arusha, where your guide
will meet you before heading to Lake Manyara
National Park. You'll have the chance to admire
the stunning vista of Lake Manyara, observe
elephants in the woodlands, and visit the famous
Manyara hippo pool.
The park offers a great view of the 400 metres
deep Great Rift Valley. This tear in the earth
came into existence 22 to 25 million years ago,
when movement in a weak area of the earth’s
crust led to the formation of a rift thousands of
kilometres long through the whole of East
Africa. The valley is so enormous it can be seen from outer space and it has many unique landscapes
that attract a vast number of different animals. Besides being home to Lake Manyara itself you can
also find dense rainforest here with hundreds of groups of monkeys and a huge number of birds.
During the evening drive to your reserved accommodation for dinner and overnight.
Dinner and overnight at Marera Valley Lodge on Full board basis.

Day 3

Game Drive in Serengeti National Park

Game Drive in Serengeti National Park

Following breakfast, embark on a safari through
the western corridor of Serengeti to
witness the majestic wildebeest migration
crossing the Grumeti River, with hungry crocodiles
lurking nearby.
The Serengeti Western Corridor harbors
numerous pivotal crossing points along the
Grumeti River and its tributaries, presenting a
spectacle as wildebeest and other herbivores
confront the daunting task of crossing these
waterways. These crossings are often fraught with dramatic scenes of predators, including
crocodiles, launching their attacks.
For those keen on witnessing the extraordinary Great Migration, the best time to visit the Serengeti
Western Corridor is typically between May and July when the wildebeest herds undertake their
treacherous journey across the Grumeti River. However, the region offers captivating wildlife
encounters year-round, each season bringing its own distinct and unforgettable experiences.
