This Park appears to be a lost world when you first arrive to Ngorongoro Crater. There is a beautiful environment with shimmering lakes and wetlands, patches of acacia woodland, and broad savannah hidden behind the sheer volcanic walls. The Crater was formed two to three million years ago when a massive volcano exploded and fell in on itself. It's well-known for its geological wonders as well as being a nature reserve that harbors some of the largest populations of huge mammals on the African continent.

Once we finish the game drive we will transfer you to the Arusha or Kilimanjaro Airport where our service ends.

Lake Manyara National Park is a tiny yet varied park. The scale of everything you see here is different. It is both majestic (the Great Rift Escarpment towering over the western limit of Lake Manyara) and compact (this is one of Africa's narrowest parks). A tiny Salt Lake is the park's namesake. Thousands of wading birds, including flamingos and more than 500 other bird species, call it home. It spans a sizable portion of the park and floods and dries with the seasons. In addition to keeping an eye out for the tree-climbing lions, you might spot baboons and elephants in the park's dense evergreen forest.

Activities of the Day: Game drive.

Main Destination:

Lake Manyara National Park
